Loved my staycation at Proper Hotel Santa Monica 🌿 Such a beautiful mix of modern design and a relaxing vibe — everything felt clean, fresh, and thoughtfully detailed. I especially loved all the gorgeous plants around the hotel! 🌱 It’s definitely on the pricier side (my King room was around $850), but totally worth it for the experience. The fitness center was amazing, and I even tried the sauna and Ammortal chamber — so refreshing! ✨ Can’t wait to come back again 💚
