Super Bowl LXI is on February 14, 2027, Valentine's Day, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. The game is 10 miles from Sea Sprite Beach Club. Book now, because LA hotel inventory for Super Bowl weekend disappears fast, and when it's gone, what's left isn't worth what they're charging.
Here's why Sea Sprite is the right call.
Super Bowl LXI: The Details
- Date: Sunday, February 14, 2027 (Valentine's Day / Presidents' Day weekend)
- Venue: SoFi Stadium, 1001 Stadium Drive, Inglewood, CA 90301
- Broadcast: ABC and ESPN (first-ever simulcast)
- Distance from Sea Sprite Beach Club: approximately 10 miles — about 22 minutes by car under normal conditions
This is the second time SoFi Stadium has hosted the Super Bowl (it also hosted Super Bowl LVI in 2022) and the ninth time the Greater Los Angeles area has hosted the game. The NFL's official logo for Super Bowl LXI features wave imagery drawn from Southern California's surf culture — which, if you needed a sign, is about as direct as it gets.
Why Hermosa Beach Is the Right Base for Super Bowl Weekend
10 Miles. 22 Minutes.
SoFi Stadium sits in Inglewood, just north of the I-405/I-105 interchange. Hermosa Beach is directly to the southwest along the coastline — 10 miles as the crow flies, around 22 minutes by rideshare under ordinary conditions.
The hotels immediately surrounding SoFi Stadium in Inglewood are airport hotels and freeway-adjacent chain properties. They'll charge Super Bowl premium rates for rooms that look like every other room you've ever stayed in near an airport. The only advantage they offer is proximity to the stadium — and at 10 miles, Sea Sprite has that covered too.
What Sea Sprite offers that they don't: the Pacific Ocean, a beachfront restaurant, a rooftop with coastline views, and a neighborhood worth actually being in.
Stay Where LA Actually Looks Like LA
Super Bowl LXI's official logo features waves. The NFL chose Southern California's surf culture as the visual identity of this game because this is Los Angeles — it's a beach city. If you're flying in from Buffalo or Kansas City or Philadelphia for the biggest game of the year, a windowless room off the 405 is not the LA experience. Hermosa Beach is.
Sea Sprite Beach Club sits directly on The Strand at 1016 The Strand — a 22-mile oceanfront path running the length of the South Bay. You wake up to the Pacific. You walk to breakfast along the water. You take a rideshare to the game. You come back to the beach.
That is the Super Bowl trip worth telling people about.
The Valentine's Day Angle
Super Bowl LXI falls on February 14 — the first Super Bowl ever played on Valentine's Day. Whether you're coming with a partner who loves football as much as you do, or you're making a deal ("I'll do the Super Bowl, you get the beachfront hotel"), Hermosa Beach in February is genuinely romantic. The crowds are gone. The weather is mild. The Strand is quiet and the sunsets are long.
Surfer Girl, our onsite restaurant and bar, is the right place for a Valentine's dinner the night before the game. A patio table, the sound of the ocean, cold drinks — you don't need to go anywhere else.
Book Early. This Is Not a Drill.
Los Angeles hotel rates for Super Bowl weekend will be among the highest in the country. When SoFi hosted Super Bowl LVI in February 2022, South Bay properties sold out months in advance. Super Bowl LXI adds the Valentine's Day holiday on top of an already compressed market.
Sea Sprite has 35 rooms. We will sell out. The sooner you book, the better your options.

If you're traveling with friends or family for the game, the Beach House Suite is the move.
