A Celebrated Tradition
Resort visionary Huntington Hartford welcomed over 1,000 of his friends—including Sinatra, Elvis, Hearst and a splash of royalty— to his debut party for The Ocean Club in 1962. Benny Goodman led his orchestra as fireworks from Monaco lit the sky. The party lasted for days. Everyone was inspired, pampered, and smitten, and a benchmark was established for future celebrations at The Ocean Club.
