I’ve always loved Hotel Casa Del Mar for the simple reason – it’s a sexy, chic, classic hotel on the Santa Monica beach that makes me feel like I’m a million miles away, in less than a 20 minute drive my home in Hollywood. I’ve met girlfriends for cocktails, had blind dates, a romantic brunch with my boyfriend, spent a day writing by the shore. It’s a gift I give to myself a couple of times a year.

But who knew they had a lovely top notch spa? I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to figure that out (#duh!).

Sea Wellness Spa - Reception 05

Located literally steps from the beach in Santa Monica, the spa offers some exciting innovative ways to de-stress after life in the big city or a day in the sun.
 
At the hotel’s Sea Wellness Spa, I recently experienced the 90 minute Diamond Magnetic Body Ritual—a luxurious treatment that purifies the body and mind, helping eliminate the effects of the electromagnetic pollution caused by the stress of our daily lives. The treatment begins with a balancing of chakras with gems, followed by a luminous mud with diamond dust applied to the body. Finally, guests are treated to a massage using magnetic tools. The ritual results in increased energy and stress relief. Oh yes, times ten please!
 
Additionally offered at the sister property Shutters on The Beach, the hotel is offering a mindfulness-inspired wellness package available for corporate and leisure groups, designed to help guests practice a mindful lifestyle and reduce stress. The hotel has partnered with renowned wellness expert John Sahakian to offer AIRR (Automatic Integrative Relaxation Response), private sessions with instruction on the principles of body, environment, and mind which include practicing a range of relaxation methods and breathing exercises taught by a local expert. The sessions can be tailored to meet the specific needs of groups, whether it’s for an all-day company retreat, a brief session to kick off a business meeting, or a way for bachelorette parties to decompress and bond and can incorporate other amenities such as yoga on the beach.
