Santa Monic
Coastal California luxury with a genuine wellness identity — curved headboards, sun-warmed textures, biodynamic wines, and seed oil-free menus. Kelly Wearstler's signature maximalism is dialed to a warm, breezy frequency here rather than her more maximalist SF work.

Why It Matters
Michelin Key recipient (2025), LEED Silver certified, the only rooftop pool on the LA Westside, and home to Surya Spa — a 3,000 sq ft Ayurvedic spa developed with internationally acclaimed practitioner Martha Soffer. Also a Design Hotels member and Marriott Bonvoy partner property.
Santa Monica Proper is a 263-room boutique hotel that blends Kelly Wearstler's layered, coastal-modern interiors with a restored 1920s Spanish Colonial landmark on Wilshire Boulevard. It sits a short walk from the beach and holds the only rooftop pool on the Westside. The wellness angle is serious — think Ayurvedic spa, cold plunges, red light beds, and an Ammortal Chamber — not just a gym and a smoothie menu.
