As LA County Public Health approves the reopening of facilities and expansion of onsite services, the City of Santa Monica will be phasing the reopening of city facilities and onsite services to the public. Hours of operation and the scale of in-person services may vary to ensure the health and safety of City teams and the public we serve. Please note that some programs and services have been modified or eliminated as a result of recent restructuring. For a full list of impacted services, please visit santamonica.gov/coronavirus-reopenings. Our 3-1-1 lines are open and our customer service agents are available to answer any questions related to reopening. Thank you for your patience and continued support.

The Beach House pool is one of the remaining elements from the historic Marion Davies Estate. It features marble around the deck and beautiful tiles that were restored by hand. The pool and pool deck are complimented by a new Pool House, with changing areas, lockers, and a second floor View Deck that offers spectacular views of Santa Monica Bay.
