Splurge Treatment: The “Stairway to Heaven” treatment. Our Dreamscape Serenity ritual draws inspiration from the tranquil oasis of the hotel’s lush gardens. This treatment promotes deep and peaceful sleep through a full-body cocoon and massage. Guests luxuriate in decadent pillows and linens while parasympathetic massage techniques and soothing essential oils lull the client into serenity.

Weighted blankets provide comforting pressure akin to a loving embrace. The ritual concludes with an Ultra Rich Body Butter foot massage, using rose quartz (the stone of love) to ensure the client drifts into a blissful sleep.

The spa’s luxurious private treatment suites include private bathrooms and showers.

Unique treatment: Our Sound & Soul Harmonization ritual pays homage to the creative energy of this iconic hotel. Rose quartz, the stone of love, reduces inflammation and promotes lymphatic drainage. The client enjoys a silk-infused full-body exfoliation and Aqua Gel Masque wrapped in the warmth of fine linen. A customized pressure massage releases stress and pain, leaving the client feeling reconnected and inspired. It is a sublime experience designed to reawaken love for oneself.

The spa treatments are inspired by the rich tapestry of music, Hollywood glamour, and California’s natural beauty.

This pampering body treatment includes a detoxifying dry body brush exfoliation, hydrating body masque, and an antioxidant-rich face, neck, and shoulder massage. The client’s skin feels more refreshed and hydrated than ever before.

Nail and waxing services are also offered in the spa’s salon area.

Featured Products: The Sunset Marquis Hotel was started by George Rosenthal in the 1960s and is now run by his son Mark, co-owner of the hotel. It was important to the Rosenthals to continue in the spirit of family-owned businesses, which is why we chose to feature family-owned companies Natura Bisse and female-founded Privai in our product offerings at the Spa. We also carry Botanika Life and Vie Healing products.
