The Spa at Shutters on the Beach

"You can also ask the spa about private yoga sessions on the beach"

"Amenities include hot tubs (with shuttered screens), pool, spa, sundeck, ground-floor shopping and ocean views, all for the price of $485"

"But there’s real luxury here, too: The on-site spa offers organic body treatments by Red Flower and facials by Omorovicza, and the nautically themed One Pico restaurant serves exceptional seafood dishes that reflect the oceanside vibes and coastal California produce"

"Guests who prefer gentle pampering to the myriad outdoor beach activities can spend a day at the spa or sit poolside sipping wine and taking in the ocean views"

"Relax by the pool or have a massage at the spa"

""New England" "charm" comes to Santa Monica by way of this "luxurious, but not pretentious" "romantic" retreat just "steps" from the sand with "yummy views", "spot-on" service and "elegant", "wonderfully appointed" rooms; the restaurant fare is "excellent", the lobby bar "perfect for people-watching" and the spa among the "best" in town, so though it's a "splurge unless you're a Hollywood celeb", aficionados maintain the "experience justifies the price tag"

"’s excessive spa services"

"Spa aficionados, meanwhile, will be in heaven at ONE, where bespoke massages and high-tech facials are the order of the day"

"Other aspects to love about the place: artworks by David Hockney and Roy Lichtenstein; Kerstin Florian treatments at the spa; and the seaside dining with quintessentially coastal-driven menus"

"Slink into a lounge chair on the ocean-view deck around the pool, or treat yourself to a spa treatment"
