As the Westside's first and only luxury lifestyle hotel, Santa Monica Proper introduces a looser kind of luxury to Santa Monica. Within walking distance to the beach, each of the 271 rooms, suites and spaces successfully optimise the city’s abundant ocean breezes and natural light, while the interior design finds inspiration in the organic tones and textures of the local coastline. Santa Monica Proper beckons guests with the only rooftop pool deck and the landmark restaurant, Onda (opening August), marking an iconic collaboration between James Beard award-winning chefs Jessica Koslow and Gabriela Camara. With an emphasis on Eastern inspired wellness, the hotel’s Surya Spa (opening November), offers custom-designed Ayurvedic programs supporting physical, mental and spiritual health. Your exclusive Luxury Escapes package includes daily breakfast for two, one rooftop cocktail each (once per stay) and a daily US$50 food and beverage credit to use at any of the on-site restaurants and bars.
