Shangrilá is a coastal resort or residential neighbourhood of the Ciudad de la Costa in the Canelones Department of Uruguay.

This neighborhood is located on the western area of Ciudad de la Costa, at 18 kilometres (11 mi) east of the centre of Montevideo on Avenida Giannattasio.

[citation needed] Shangrilá is acronym of: Sociedad Hipotecaria Administradora de Negocios Generales Rentas Inversiones Locaciones Anónima (S.H.A.N.G.R.I.L.A), name of the society with Argentinian capitals which was the proprietary of the terrain.

[citation needed] In 1965 happened a notorious event in Shangrilá: the Mossad assassinated Latvian Nazi collaborator Herberts Cukurs, who was hiding there.

Shangrila is divided by the long Avenida Luis Giannattasio, along which are concentrated the main commercial and service activities of the place.
