OCEANFRONT & ON POINT: SANTA MONICA’S PREMIER MEETING SPACES WITH PACIFIC VIEWS
SANTA MONICA, Calif. (September 24, 2025) – Few meeting and event destinations can match the blend of natural beauty, walkable convenience and elevated service found in Santa Monica. For planners seeking event spaces where the Pacific Ocean isn’t just a nearby attraction but a true part of the experience, Santa Monica Travel & Tourism spotlights a curated selection of ocean view venues designed to inspire and impress.
Featured Oceanfront & Ocean View Meeting Spaces
海滩上的百叶窗: This classic beachfront hotel pairs refined coastal design with flexible venues, including the Pacific Terrace, an open-air space with sweeping views of the Santa Monica Pier and coastline, or the charming Oceanside Room for smaller gatherings overlooking the sea. Their “beachside break outs” offer a chance for meeting planners to flexibly set up bespoke outdoor events and inspire organic connections.
Casa del Mar 酒店: Just steps from the sand, Hotel Casa del Mar offers elegant ballrooms and meeting rooms framing the Pacific. This seaside retreat boasts a dedicated meeting specialist to anticipate needs before they arise, team-building activities taking place directly on the pristine sandy beach, advanced AV technology sure to wow guests and custom outdoor lighting to set a tailored scene. Standout spaces include the Colonnade Ballroom, a venue combining ocean views and an outdoor space with timeless luxury able to host an impressive 600 reception guests, and the Conservatory, a waterfront enclave for up to 100 attendees with panoramic views and warm light through its three sides of floor-to-ceiling windows.
The Huntley Santa Monica Beach: Perched high above the city on the 18th floor of The Huntley, The Penthouse offers panoramic ocean vistas in a chic, contemporary setting. Scenic overlooks abound at this stunning space, where even the elevator boasts picturesque views. It’s the crown jewel of several luxurious meeting spaces within the property, including smaller venues that can be reserved for more intimate events. The Penthouse’s elegance and versatility make it ideal for cocktail receptions, corporate gatherings or VIP dining experiences.
圣莫尼卡海滩丽晶酒店: With over 20,000 sq. ft. of functional event space, Regent Santa Monica Beach features exceptional venues like the Seascape Salon (330 person capacity) and the outdoor Seascape Terrace that bring the Pacific front and center for both day and evening events complete with delectable food and beverage offerings developed by celebrity chef Michael Mina and a pastry chef that wows. Following its debut in 2024, this stunning coastal oasis was recently recognized as part of Travel + Leisure’s It List 2025: The best new hotels around the world, and is a true gem for meeting planners seeking luxury seaside spaces.
圣莫尼卡桑德本: For breezy gatherings with the beach as the backdrop, consider Sandbourne Santa Monica’s 9,000 sq. ft. of laid-back, versatile venues. Coordinate chic receptions with floor-to-ceiling views in the Bluebell space, plan an intimate gathering with a private terrace in Sea Palm III or take attendees outdoors in the open-air Courtyard complete with ambient lighting, firepits and lounge seating.
圣莫尼卡酒店: Featuring stunning event spaces designed by the renowned Kelly Wearstler, this property can accommodate large groups with sophistication and ease. Virtual tours and a dedicated in-house team make selecting a venue within the property a breeze, including the standout Calabra Rooftop. As the only rooftop pool-deck-restaurant in the area, 卡拉布拉 offers uninterrupted coastal panoramas alongside seasonal menus, blending business gatherings with the atmosphere of a unique luxury resort.
Why Ocean Views Make the Difference
For both “on” presentations and relaxing after-hours recharge, the tranquility and centering of the ocean can set the right tone for any event.
Natural light, fresh air and dynamic horizons enhance attendee mood and engagement and naturally build in inspiration. According to McKinsey & Company, “research shows that spending time in nature can improve cognitive functioning, boost connections, and be a catalyst for personal and team growth.” Nature itself is a creativity booster and has the ability to lower stress levels, enabling our best work.
Of course, the event planners on staff know there might be no better artist than mother nature when creating social-media-ready backdrops for corporate events, influencer gatherings and press moments, all without the big spend. Nature’s canvas adds organic backdrops, no assembly required. Ocean views offer a contrast from the glow of a screen to calm the nervous system, creating spaces for both productivity and positivity.
Finally, time spent at a venue on the ocean means an easy jaunt to the Santa Monica Pier, the city’s eight neighborhoods all with distinct personalities, an extensive dining and shopping scene and neighboring stretches of sea.
The convenience, aesthetic and calming nature of the ocean make Santa Monica’s sparkling meeting rooms an ideal place for gatherings big and small. To discover your ideal oceanfront venue today, contact our team of experts at meet@santamonica.com.
