About Palma
Palma is a practical Proper Hotel pick in Santa Monica when flexibility and setting matter more than a wine-list deep dive. Choose it for an easy hotel-based drink, date, or meet-up; cross-shop Esters Wine Shop & Oyster Bar if the evening is mainly about wine depth and bottle discovery.
Palma is a Santa Monica venue with verified long daily hours and a smart casual dress code. The available details do not verify cuisine, menu format, pricing, beverage program, awards, or a specific service style, so plan with those limits in mind rather than treating it as a menu-led recommendation.
A flexible Santa Monica option with long posted hours
The most useful verified planning detail for Palma is timing: it opens at 7 AM daily, closes at 11:30 PM Sunday through Thursday, and stays open until 12:30 AM on Friday and Saturday. That makes it easier to consider for a wide range of Santa Monica plans, though the verified information does not specify what is served at each part of the day.
If you are comparing Palma with other nearby options, keep the comparison practical. Esters Wine Shop & Bar, Esters Wine Shop & Oyster Bar, Rustic Canyon, Ye Olde King's Head, and Élephante may fit different plans, but Palma should be judged here only on the confirmed basics: Santa Monica location, smart casual dress code, and broad operating hours.
Who should choose it, and who should cross-shop
Choose Palma when you want a Santa Monica venue with long posted hours and a smart casual standard. Cross-shop if you need confirmed details on cuisine, menu, drinks, price, or a specific occasion fit, because those details are not verified here. For a broader look at the area, use Our full Santa Monica restaurants guide, Our full Santa Monica bars guide, and Our full Santa Monica hotels guide to compare by mood, format, and location fit.

How Palma compares in Santa Monica
For wine-led plans, Esters Wine Shop & Bar and Esters Wine Shop & Oyster Bar are the stronger choices because they read as wine destinations first. Palma is better for a hotel-based meet-up where timing and setting matter more than building the night around the glass.
Rustic Canyon is the better cross-shop for a food-forward Santa Monica dinner, while Élephante makes more sense when the group wants a higher-energy room. Palma is the easier, lower-friction choice for a quieter plan anchored around the Proper Hotel address.
Ye Olde King's Head serves a different brief: casual pub comfort over hotel polish. Pick it for a relaxed, value-minded outing; pick Palma when the room, location, and all-day usability are the point.
