The Beach House Pool is one of the remaining elements from the historic Marion Davies Estate. It features beautiful tiles that were restored by hand, and marble around the deck. 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.
