Salt & Snow

A Winter Whimsy Pop-Up Experience @ Salt Kitchen & Bar

November 11–February 15, 2027 | Daily 11:30 a.m.–11 p.m.

Meet Us at the Salt Pole, Where Winter Shows Off

Somewhere between the North and South Poles, winter takes a decidedly coastal turn…toward the Salt Pole. This season, the bar and lounge at Wentworth by the Sea hosts Salt & Snow, an over-the-top, immersive winter pop-up experience, where twinkling lights, cozy plaids, lambswool throws, and après-sea chic touches set the scene for seasonal cocktails and music.

Whether you come for a date night, drinks with friends, a festive gathering, or simply an excuse to get out of the cold, this is one new winter tradition where ogling isn’t just acceptable – it’s encouraged.


Salt & Snow is open to both the public and hotel guests. No admission required.

A Design that Dazzles

The Art of Après-Sea

Pulling off a transformation of this scale takes more than a few string lights. Wentworth by the Sea called in the pros from Hello Tuesday, the Maine-based design house of Krista Stokes, Christy Reid, and Mark Cotto. And does this trio know a thing or two about creating spaces worth staring at – their resume includes the recent reimagining of sibling Opal property The Asticou Hotel, a 2026 Esquire Best New Hotel in the World.

Private Midweek Salt & Snow Experiences for Groups

Groups who book during the week get exclusive access to the spectacle. Essentially, your team takes over the transformed lounge – soaking up the twinkle, over-the-top décor, and après-sea atmosphere on your own time, without sharing the experience with other patrons or hotel guests.

Make it a Salt (& Spa) Visit

Scrub & Glow Before Salt & Snow

Why just sip at Salt? Make a day of it with a visit first to the on-site Opal Spa, where the seasonal Fig & Frost Body Scrub kicks the salt theme off. This 60-minute winter ritual buffs away dull skin with exfoliating mineral salts before a rich shea butter infusion wraps you in warming notes of clove, cinnamon, and earthy vetiver – leaving skin smooth, hydrated, and ready to glow your way into Salt & Snow.
