Surya Spa by Martha Soffer
Surya Spa brings an Ayurvedic approach to coastal wellness, created through a rare collaboration with Martha and Roger Soffer’s internationally renowned spa. As LA’s flagship Ayurvedic spa, Surya offers deeply personalized treatments shaped around each guest, with herbalized oils prepared nightly and therapies often performed by two therapists in synchrony. Open daily, the full-service spa is designed for restorative time before or after travel, training, or a day by the coast. Guests can complement spa rituals with on-site yoga and fitness classes, a 24/7 fitness center, complimentary bicycles, and the private Recovery Suite, featuring hot sauna, cold plunge, red light therapy wall, and the Ammortal Chamber.
Spa Treatment & Rituals
Surya’s rituals center on Ayurveda, with treatments tailored by Martha Soffer and her team. Signature experiences include Panchakarma, a three- to 21-day course designed to transform body and mind, and the 2.5-hour Abhyanga + Shirodhara treatment. Many therapies may extend up to four hours per day, with two therapists working in synchronized motion and using herbalized oils cooked each night for each guest. Additional offerings for hotel guests include Pre-Sweat Abhyanga in two- or four-handed formats, a 30-minute Nasya Treatment, and a Scrub Post-Sweating ritual performed before a cold plunge.
