Day 2 - Private Sea & Culinary Indulgences

Morning

Your second day in Santa Monica is all about enjoying the beauty of California, first by taking in views at a chic restaurant with ocean views, ORLA. Enjoy fresh juices and breakfast favorites such as a Mediterranean-inspired shakshuka or superfood yogurt, before setting off on your first adventure of the day: The Riva Experience, a private yacht cruise curated by The Georgian.

On board this fully crewed, Italian-designed Riva yacht, you’ll sail from Santa Monica to Malibu and back in style. This completely private sailing is rounded out with champagne and curated canapés for an elevated on-deck experience as you take in panoramic views.

Afternoon

After returning to shore, take time to unwind. You could opt to relax in your ocean-view suite with an in-room spa treatment. Or, let your concierge arrange a personalized experience, such as a curated shopping excursion on Montana Avenue.

Evening

As evening approaches, make your way to cocktail hour at The Penthouse at The Huntley Santa Monica Beach—one of the area’s best dining destinations above a luxurious high-rise. Take in sweeping city-to-ocean views as you sip creative, bespoke cocktails and enjoy live music at this rooftop bar.

For dinner, continue to explore Santa Monica’s culinary scene with a visit to Mélisse’s sister restaurant, Citrin. Although you can’t go wrong with any table at this French-Californian, Michelin-recognized restaurant, consider reserving the chef’s table for a semi-private experience, complete with a sommelier-selected wine pairing that highlights the restaurant’s seasonal compositions.
