The Chalet, Made Coastal.
Available 4 to 6 PM | Thursdays – Saturdays November 20 – January 31.
Regent Santa Monica Beach presents Après Soirée, its newest experiential pop-up that transforms seaside cabanas into LA’s chicest winter retreat. Designed as an escape where alpine warmth meets ocean air, winter finds its most beautiful contrast. Each private heated cabana holds its own holiday ritual: a curated s’mores kit, a warm welcome cocktail and the crackle of fire meeting the breeze at a glowing firepit reserved exclusively for your group. Winter-white decor and twinkling lights frame the scene, as live music drifts through the salt air and a dedicated fireside mixologist enchants with seasonal cocktails. This is snow lodge sophistication reimagined for the coast, where winter means cozying up fireside with unobstructed ocean views and the iconic Santa Monica pier dancing beyond.
