Regent Santa Monica Beach Announces Curated Spring Programming

Regent Santa Monica Beach, the premier destination resort located on the nation’s most celebrated beach, announces a new collection of family-friendly programming for its first spring season following its opening in October 2024. With families continuing to prioritize meaningful and immersive experiences for their travels, the luxury resort is the perfect coastal getaway to cultivate lasting memories for guests of all ages. Children and adults alike can participate in hands-on, educational activities, celebrate holidays such as Easter, or immerse in the vibrant Santa Monica culture through private surf lessons and kite flying.

Family travel is still on the rise in 2025 with multi-generational trips taking the spotlight. According to USA Today, 57% of consumers want to start new family traditions centered around vacations with grandparents, and almost 70% of parents actively want their children’s grandparents to join more vacations. Family-friendly destinations offering adventure and relaxation – like beach escapes – will remain popular this year, making Santa Monica and the resort the ideal locale for an enchanting spring vacation.

“Santa Monica is a diverse and treasured beach destination where visitors can experience Southern Californian culture at its best,” says General Manager Younes Atallah. “Today’s travelers aim to immerse themselves in a destination, so the engaging programs available this spring will allow guests to connect with the region and each other. An elegant beachfront oasis, Regent Santa Monica Beach also offers access to several famed Southern California attractions; making it an ideal home base for exploring the coast and beyond.”
