If your perfect parallel universe is one where you spend your days sauntering around Rodeo Drive and brunching on Sunset Boulevard, then Hollywood is calling your name. But while the heady heights of Los Angeles’ most glamorous enclave comes suited and booted with five-star hotels to match, those who are serious about the States may be looking for something longer term. Enter our Holiday Home of the Month: Rosewood Residences Beverly Hills. 

Hot off the press this month is Rosewood Residences’ first standalone residential offering in the form of 17 state-of-the-art Los Angeles apartments. Following in the footsteps of the American hotel group’s property ventures in Abu Dhabi, Hong Kong and Florida, the new collection is nestled on South Santa Monica Boulevard, and spans five floors designed by acclaimed New York architect, Thomas Juul-Hansen. 

Essential to his vision was the integration of the finest natural materials across both the exterior and interiors. Take, for example, the generous amount of exterior glass that floods the residences with air and light, while floors are lined in wide-plank white oak, walls finished in Venetian plaster, and kitchens and bathrooms equipped with modern appliances. 

The residences range from 3,000 to over 7,000 square feet and feature open-plan layouts that are accessed by private lifts and large entry foyers. Keeping the space flowing is an oversized kitchen featuring twin islands alongside custom millwork from Molteni & C, hand-picked Grecian marble – the same Dionysus white that was used to construct the Parthenon more than 2,400 years ago – and Sub-Zero and Wolf kitchen appliances. Neutral, calming bedrooms are tucked away for privacy, accompanied by walk-in closets and marble bathrooms. 

Anyone who is anyone in LA clamours for a view, and all homes here naturally enjoy sweeping terraces, with six also benefiting from private pools and al fresco dining areas. Destined to be among the most coveted real estate in the area, four sprawling penthouses sit as Rosewood Residences’ crown jewels, and spread over two floors to create private rooftop retreats.  

Managed by a dedicated team that oversees every aspect of the property’s luxury service offerings, Rosewood Residences Beverly Hills is designed to elevate the apartment experience with a touch of the luxury hospitality the hotel brand is renowned for. Be welcomed to the property by an elegant porte cochère and discreet reception area that ensures privacy and exclusivity, while 24/7 security offers peace of mind. Amenities such as the rooftop – home to a 50-foot pool, jacuzzi, fitness centre and outdoor recreation areas – wouldn’t look out of place at one of Rosewood’s resorts, and will also play host to residents’ private gatherings as well as events and experiences developed by the Rosewood team. 

Owners of homes at Rosewood Residences Beverly Hills will be privy to unique, bespoke invitations. Whether it be through a special reservation to mark a birthday or anniversary, an in-residence spa experience to decompress following a busy day, or simply an airport pick-up after a long week of travel, Rosewood Residential will open up its little black book to ensure it can make anything and everything happen for its tenants. 

Buying here also means you won’t have to sweat the small stuff. Fancy changing the art on the walls? Rosewood Residences’ partnership with Creative Art means owners can turn their home into an ever-evolving exhibition. Furry friends in tow? In collaboration with local pet handlers, owners can enjoy pet care including on and off-site training, grooming, and scheduled walks. In need of some TLC? The property’s butlers are available to assist with every need, from managing household tasks to being on hand at all hours via a dedicated app. Put simply, this is apartment living reimagined.
