“A chic contemporary design hotel located close to Santa Monica beach. Spacious rooms are designed with natural materials and indulgent bathrooms benefit from Aesop products. With excellent bars, restaurants and wellness facilities, this is an undeniably luxurious destination in its own right.”

Hotel review

A Spanish Colonial Revival building dating to the 1920s with a thoroughly modern twist, housing the realised vision of pioneering hotel designer Kelly Wearstler.

Rooms at this eye-catching hotel are flooded with natural light and meticulously chosen fixtures and fittings, which have come to typify the work of both the designer and the Proper brand. Sumptuous Bellino and Fili d’Oro linens, Apple TVs, and walk-in showers in the marble lashed bathrooms complete the rooms.

In the lobby, the potted palms and warm toned natural wood mix well with the plush white and handcrafted wooden furniture, giving a fresh and unpretentious atmosphere. Guests can take advantage of a fully equipped 3,000 square foot Ayurvedic spa, the result of collaboration between Proper and Surya Spa, offering personalised holistic wellness packages, as well as soothing and cleansing skin and massage treatments.

On-site restaurants include the Balearic style Onda, and rooftop Mediterranean-Cali style Calabra, staffed by award winning chefs. try the delicate pastries, locally sourced seafood and enjoy a drink in the Palma Bar

Located in trendy Santa Monica, offering access to the vibrant beach scene, boutique shopping, and the excellent local markets which carry the best organic produce that L.A. has to offer.
