The Cove Four Seasons Outdoor Space - FOUR SEASONS -
Situated on more than 2 acres of the sprawling 12- acre Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village , The Cove is an outdoor space that evokes the carefree and lively spirit of Southern California . As one of California ’ s largest luxury pool concepts , The Cove features a steel-clad outdoor bar and grill with a full commercial kitchen , IT space , private showers and bathrooms , three whirlpool spas , a grand pool , terraced lounge seating , luxe private daybeds , swaying hammocks flanked by towering date palm trees , a raised bocce ball court , a working greenhouse for private wellness experiences and an outdoor restaurant and bar . It also includes the re-imagination of the existing greenhouse into an organic dining experience . The nearly USD 20 million pool , restaurant , and bar project is set among the picturesque Santa Monica Mountains .
The Cove evokes the character and personality of the glistening coastline . Colors such as cobalt blue , turquoise , burnt orange , and greens compliment teak woods and fresh white metals , while the vaulted white and aluminum steel canopy , an architectural fixture of The Cove , resembles the curvature of a rhythmic ocean wave . As the sun sets on The Cove , tiki torches and a forty-foot-long fire wall illuminate the space at golden hour , adding to the warm glow and ambient setting .
“ The Cove Pool , Kitchen & Bar will change the way guests experience our best-in-class urban retreat Hotel ,” explains Robert Cima , Regional Vice President and General Manager . “ It is our hope that when guests journey to us , they find an idyllic life , full of character and personality – a warm and welcoming environment to relax and celebrate in a one-of-a-kind SoCal setting .”
