In a town buzzing with movie premieres, declarations of new “it” girls and deal-making or breaking meetings occurring each day, Shutters on the Beach and Hotel Casa del Mar aim to provide luxury location and service for the entertainment industry’s elite.

Kaylee Kiecker joins Shutters and Casa as the new director of entertainment sales, overseeing all sales initiatives, working with major entertainment companies and networks, talent agencies, travel agencies, studios and venues to facilitate any of their needs. Kiecker was vice president of special events and tourism for the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce from 2004 to 2006.

“The industry’s executives come to Shutters and Casa every day for a nearby escape from the hustle of the city or to conduct private meetings with views of the Pacific Ocean over their shoulder,” said Vice President and Managing Director Klaus Mennekes said. “Ms. Kiecker’s extensive experience in both Hollywood and hospitality will be very beneficial to industry executives who need exceptional service.”

Kiecker’s previous experience also includes 10 years of hotel group sales for high-end hoteliers, and guest coordinating for private events at the Playboy Mansion and for private cigar dinners in conjunction with Gov. Schwarzenegger.
