About us

Winner of the 2025 Conde Nast Traveler Readers Choice Award for Top 10 So Cal Resorts! Perched atop a stunning coastal bluff along one of Southern California’s most dramatic stretches of coastline, Alila Marea Beach Resort is poised to provide boundless inspiration. Where “Marea” means “tide”, fresh ideas ebb and flow from the Pacific, visible from nearly every spacious guestroom and airy event space. The splendor of the ocean can be seen from Alila Marea’s marquee event settings, but its powerful energy can be felt throughout all 22,000 square feet. Alila Marea offers versatile function spaces for any gathering, from intimate executive meetings and private chef’s table dinners to annual conferences and galas for up to 300 guests. When business adjourns, world-class culinary, restorative wellness experiences, and local outings immerse attendees in California beach culture in an elevated, yet intimately authentic way.

Los Angeles
Discover our historic hotel in downtown Los Angeles Soon to be celebrating our 100-year anniversary – and having recently added the ‘Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument’ accolade to our mantle – Millennium Biltmore Los Angeles is the grand dame of downtown and this district’s most historic hotel. Our beaux-arts institution has impressed guests and locals since the glory days of Old Hollywood, capable of entertaining a galaxy of stars, dignitaries and presidents from around the world. Having played host to a golden-era prohibition nightclub, numerous Academy Awards ceremonies, and feature film sets throughout the years – you’ll wish these gilt walls and painted ceilings could talk. Our three ornate towers stretch above the ballrooms below, giving guests a view of the stunning Pershing Square. And with the booming arts and cultural scene of downtown Los Angeles just outside, you can easily explore and discover the true spirit of Tinseltown. Take your pick from our variety of restaurants and bars or take a cooling dip in the indoor pool that still feature the original brass railings and ornate blue tiling from the Roaring Twenties. It’s time to visit LA in true Hollywood style.

Rock 'n Roll Team Building
Rock 'n Roll Team Building
multi-city
Connection. Creativity. Chaos (the fun kind). Available all over the USA! Forget the icebreakers and trust falls. This is team building that cranks up the volume and gets your people actually connecting — not just collecting another tote bag. We take your team, hand them a mic (sometimes literally), and turn a room of colleagues into a full-blown rock choir. It’s equal parts live music, laughter, storytelling, and spine-tingling harmony — all tailored to your event. Here’s What You Get: • 🎸 Live Music that kicks like a drum solo at Wembley • 🎤 Storytelling that hits the heart (and the funny bone) • 🎶 3-Part Harmony Choir — no singing skills required, just good vibes • 🤘 Audience Improv — spontaneous, unforgettable, and never awkward • 📝 Custom Song Creation that ties your event together with a chorus your team will hum all the way home Perfect for: • 🚀 Launching big ideas • 🔋 Energizing the middle of a long agenda • 🎉 Ending on a high that actually gets remembered We’ve done this with 10 people. We’ve done it with 2,500. Either way, we bring the same stadium-worthy energy. We’re fronted by Grammy-nominated INXS frontman Ciaran Gribbin, backed by world-class musicians, and powered by pure rock ‘n roll spirit. This isn’t “team building.” It’s a shared experience that gives your people goosebumps, grins, and genuine connection. Ready to shake things up? Let’s talk. "Best Team Building I've ever booked. Ciaran and the band were great." Arrow Electronics "It was absolutely the best team event I have ever run or attended." Lamb Weston "I can honestly say that Rock 'n Roll Team Building is the best event experience I have ever seen at a conference." Jazz Pharmaceuticals

LOCATION Alila Marea Beach Resort is located in North County, San Diego, just 32 miles north of San Diego International Airport, and central to Encinitas, one of the most unique and charming seaside towns that dot California’s iconic Coastal Highway 101. Crowned with breathtaking bluffs, sun-kissed sand stretches for six miles with nearly twice as many beaches along the way. GUESTROOMS Inspired by the natural elements of the California coastline, the 130 rooms and suites at Alila Marea Beach Resort feature sophisticated décor that blends style with sustainable focus. Nearly every guestroom offers amazing coastal views, while many include balconies, patios and private fire pits for basking in the ocean breezes. CULINARY With award-winning Executive Chef Claudette Zepeda at the helm, creative banquet menus blur the boundaries between Southern California and Baja cuisine in beautifully unique ways. The resort’s restaurants and bars provide space to gather, savor the flavors of the region and drink in its unrivaled ocean views. GROUP MOMENTS Alila, which means “surprise” in Sanskrit, is known for unforgettable bespoke experiences that draw inspiration from and give back to the global communities in which they reside. At Alila Marea, adventure often ends with altruism, such as a slot canyon hike or paddle out that ends with a Rob Machado Foundation beach cleanup led by the surf legend himself. SPA ALILA Located in one of the most bio-diverse regions of North America, Spa Alila is a sanctuary deeply rooted in both land and sea. This refuge of tranquility and calm features five naturally appointed treatment rooms, separate men’s and women’s saunas, and a soothing relaxation space that can be set aside exclusively for your group.
