Santa Monica Proper Hotel, A Member Of Design Hotels - A luxury wellness retreat with rooftop pool, Ayurvedic spa, and Pacific Ocean views
Located in the heart of Santa Monica, this 5-star Santa Monica hotel features the area's only rooftop pool deck with panoramic ocean views. The property houses Surya Spa, led by Ayurvedic expert Martha Soffer, offering customized wellness programs and specialized treatments. Guest rooms showcase king beds with imported linens, walk-in travertine showers, and Aesop amenities, while select accommodations include outdoor balconies with sunset views. The rooftop Calabra bistro serves Mediterranean and California cuisine paired with biodynamic wines. A state-of-the-art fitness center spans three naturally lit spaces, equipped with Peloton bikes, treadmills, and strength training equipment. Santa Monica Proper Hotel, A Member Of Design Hotels provides four meeting rooms, a ballroom, and multiple courtyards.

Pros
Internationally renowned Ayurvedic treatments by Martha Soffer's team
Heated rooftop pool with shaded loungers and seasonal refreshments
Private yoga sessions with Los Angeles' leading instructors
Three dedicated fitness spaces with outdoor class options
Cons
1 mile from the beach and main tourist attractions
Limited dining venues within the hotel property
“Santa Monica Proper achieves a remarkable sense of place through Kelly Wearstler's design and attentive service. Its rooftop pool and dining, coupled with an Ayurvedic spa, create a relaxing wellness environment near the beach and Montana Avenue's shops, although set slightly back from the oceanfront bustle. I believe it's a particularly strong choice for those seeking a design-conscious stay with family-friendly amenities.”
