The Private Suite in Westfield Century City offers an exclusive retail experience by allowing for a private room while shopping in a large retail space. The Private Suite is owned and operated by Gavin de Becker & Associates, which specializes in private security for celebrities and politicians.
de Becker sits down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to talk about the benefits of the private suite, and how it can help heighten the shopping experience.
The service includes a special ramp down into the parking garages, a gated vehicle courtyard, seven private suites, a private elevator to the retail and dining level of Westfield Century City. Each suite has a generously-stocked food-service pantry, and members can book in-suite massages, haircuts, salon services, manicures, and showings of merchandise from Westfield retailers.
Private Suite service at Westfield Century City is available to members for $750 per half-day, and covers the member and up to five guests, while the rate is $1500 for non-members.
