HOtel Casa del Mar Welcomes Wheat Pop-up Shop
01.25.19
Hotel Casa del Mar, Santa Monica’s acclaimed oceanfront luxury hotel, today announced a pop-up shop in partnership with Wheat, the East Coast lifestyle boutique, to offer guests and locals a chance to take a piece of elevated beach lifestyle home. The space will be a thoughtfully curated collection of apparel, accessories and home goods that marries the chic, carefree look of the West Coast with classic East Coast sophistication. Open January 31 through Spring 2019 in Hotel Casa del Mar’s spacious Pacific-facing lobby, the pop-up shop will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Inspired by a trip to fashionista Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel’s Paris apartment where founder Molly Sheehan learned that iterations of the wheat stalk found throughout the residence signified prosperity and abundance, Wheat has been sought-after by an A-List clientele for its distinguished blend of recognizable luxury brands and local boutique labels including Aviator Nation, LemLem, The Great, Onia, Robert Graham and Monica Columbia – all exclusively available at Wheat’s inaugural West Coast pop-up and not yet available at the boutique’s other locations in the Northeast.
Located on the Pacific coast of Santa Monica, Hotel Casa del Mar embodies the effortlessness of Santa Monica with the grandeur of Mediterranean villas. The spacious lobby, designed by Michael Smith, is a sought-after spot for visitors and locals to enjoy cocktails and meals against a panoramic backdrop of the beach and glittering ocean.
The hotel’s 113 residential-style guestrooms and 16 suites showcase modern coastal designs and sweeping views of the coastline from Palos Verdes to Malibu. Additional information can be found online at hotelcasadelmar.com/.
Hotel Casa Del Mar is at 1910 Ocean Way in Santa Monica.
