Santa Monica Proper introduces a looser kind of luxury to Santa Monica. Here, along sun-drenched Wilshire Boulevard, within walking distance to the beach, each of the 267 rooms, suites and spaces successfully optimize 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 on the Westside, a one-of-a-kind setting that includes a Balearic outdoor restaurant, bar, and cabanas, where guests are front-row for sunsets over the Pacific. Our Santa Monica Proper resort offers a true local experience in the heart of the city, walking distance from the beach, boutique shopping, health-conscious cafes, the world-class farmers market, and indulgent fine dining. Anything less just wouldn’t be Proper.

The Santa Monica Proper is our favorite place to be for vacation. The amenities, design, restaurant quality, roof-top pool, location and staff all rock! This is why we come 'home' to the SMP two or three times per year!

Great location near the beach. Love the vibe, the design, the landscaping, etc. Killer rooftop deck bar and pool. Highly recommended!

The Santa Monica Proper is my go to whenever I travel to LA! Architecturally and visually appealing, comfortable rooms and beds (loved upgrading to the wellness room — the 8 Sleep is amazing!), and the staff is incredibly attentive and kind. I love staying here!

We had an amazing stay at Proper Hotel Santa Monica! The design is stunning, the rooms are beautifully appointed, and the atmosphere feels both relaxing and vibrant. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and every detail—from the rooftop pool to the dining options—was exceptional. We left feeling refreshed and can’t wait to come back!
