Lots of local restaurants and shops. We come here often for date night, family brunch, or just a nice walk! Check out Palmilla Cocina for margaritas and a beach view. A scenic 20 minute walk or 6 minute bike ride from Shade Hotel!
Another beach town with a different vibe! More shopping and restaurants. A few of our favorite restaurants: Fishing with Dynamite, Nick's, Esperanza, and Sugarfish.
We're here almost every weekend for coffee and/or brunch, followed by a walk on the Esplanade. The views of Redondo and Palos Verdes never get old! A 15 minute bike ride from Shade Hotel.
Our favorite local coffee shop! A 10-minute walk from Shade Hotel. Pro tip: order ahead on their website.
Abbot Kinney is very special to us, as we've spent a lot of time here. Lots of fun restaurants, shops, and people watching. If you're willing to make the drive, make a day of it! Check out Venice Beach and the canals, too.
Lots of shopping at the Third Street Promenade, and of course, good restaurants. Stroll down to the famous Santa Monica Pier too!
