Hotel at a Glance: Village at Breckenridge

These condominiums and studio suites are just a half block from the shops and restaurants of Breckenridge’s Main Street. Though the area is famous for its ski slopes, there’s plenty to do on Main Street and in the family-friendly Breck Summer Fun Park after the snow melts.

• Have drinks and dinner at the Park Avenue Pub.
• Take a soak in the outdoor hot tubs.
• Splash around in an indoor/outdoor pool.
• Where you’ll stay: All comfy digs have full kitchens and free WiFi.

Breckenridge, Colorado: Former Mining Town with Famous Mountain Resort

Like many Colorado towns, Breckenridge started out as a mining town in the 19th century. Breckenridge remained prosperous longer than many of its neighbors. It was here, in fact, that miners found the largest gold nugget ever unearthed in Colorado. The 13.5-pound behemoth, known as “Tom’s Baby,” is currently on display at the Colorado History Museum in Denver.

When the mines dried up, in came the skiers. Breckenridge Ski Resort, which opened in 1961, today encompasses five peaks and nearly 3,000 skiable acres. If you’re visiting in warmer weather, there’s still plenty to do. Head to downtown Breckenridge, where the quaint Main Street is lined with carefully preserved Victorian-era buildings that now house art galleries, boutiques, and restaurants.

Redding, California: The Jewel of Northern California

One of the largest cities in the Sacramento Valley, Redding serves as a hub for exploring the region’s lakes, forests, and mountains. With Lake Shasta just 14 miles to the north, Lassen Volcanic National Park 48 miles to the east, and Whiskeytown National Recreation Area’s waterfalls to the west, the opportunities for outdoor adventure seem endless. There are 220 miles of trails throughout the Redding area, perfect for hiking and biking.

In the center of town, the impressive 700-foot-long Sundial Bridge at Turtle Bay attracts visitors as a marvel of modern engineering. Its 217-foot support tower points due north, making it a functioning sundial as well. The bridge joins both campuses of the 300-acre Turtle Bay Exploration Park, where visitors can explore the arboretum and gardens or just stroll by the Sacramento River’s shores. At the Cascade Theatre, which was restored to its original art-deco luster in 2004, musical acts and comedians perform.

Hotel at a Glance: The Garland

This 4-star hotel is steeped in Hollywood glamour—it was founded by actress Beverly Garland, and it’s right near Universal Studios and the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Still, the hotel feels worlds away from busy Los Angeles, thanks to the leafy property’s tranquil gardens, towering pine trees, and adobe walls. Opened more than 40 years ago, the hotel retains a charming vintage vibe, though a fresh renovation has given it an upscale flavor.

• Daily activities: Take a walk to see the Brady Bunch house, get fitness tips from a top trainer, or enjoy free California wine tastings. Activities change based on the season.
• A sparkling outdoor pool is surrounded by oversize lounge cushions, topiary plants, and a white-brick chimney and fireplace.

North Hollywood, California: Historic Theaters, World-Class Shopping, and Trendy Restaurants

Situated northwest of downtown Los Angeles and 20 minutes from Beverly Hills, North Hollywood (or “NoHo” as it’s sometimes called) is equal parts Tinseltown and cultural treasure. At the Hollywood & Highland Center, an upscale entertainment complex, you can see the Dolby Theater, the Academy Awards’ permanent home, and the iconic architecture of the TCL Chinese Theatre, where A-list celebrities have gathered for movie premieres since 1927. For a more intimate theater experience, head to the Noho Arts District, where independent companies produce a range of experimental work.

The Hollywood glamour picks up south of North Hollywood in Studio City. The setting for CBS studios and movie sets, its streets have been used as filming locations for several silver screen hits, including Pulp Fiction and Boogie Nights. There’s no shortage of shopping opportunities in the area either—Rodeo Drive boasts designer labels and world-class people watching, and the Melrose shopping district is lined with funky clothing boutiques, vintage stores, and kitschy themed restaurants.

Mal Pais, Costa Rica: Uninterrupted Beauty on the Nicoya Peninsula

The waves that crest along the Nicoya Peninsula are as well known in surfer circles as those found in hot spots such as California, Hawaii, and Australia’s Gold Coast. Thus, the beachside fishing village of Mal Pais sees its fair share of surfers seeking the next perfect wave. The nearby Playa Carmen beach, known for its picturesque palm-lined shores, is a particularly popular spot, not just for surfers, but also for scuba divers interested in the beach’s gorgeous coral reefs.

While much of the attention understandably centers on the area’s beaches, there’s plenty of other natural beauty to explore here, too. Cabo Blanco Absolute Natural Reserve stretches across both land and sea, its borders protecting dense forests, inquisitive howler monkeys, and the coast’s shorebirds and marine life. The park is also home to the sandy Playa Cuevas, which is a favorite spot of snorkelers. Other popular means of getting around the area include leisurely horseback rides and all-terrain vehicles, which frequently carry visitors on tours of the surrounding beaches and forests.

The coast stretches for more than 20 miles and is dotted with coconut palms, chaise lounges, and laid-back bars. Glitzy resorts feature prominently along the shoreline, but Playa El Cortecito, a short drive up the coast, harks back to earlier times. Brightly colored thatched-roof shacks line the beach, and local fishermen bring their boats to shore each afternoon with the day’s catch.

Situated on a broad stretch of California coastline, SeaVenture Beach Hotel & Restaurant is a perfect retreat if your ideal vacation involves lounging in the sun. Even when you aren’t enjoying the sound of crashing waves from a complimentary beach towel or chair, the hotel highlights the oceanside no matter where you are, with a beach-facing restaurant and direct access to a boardwalk that lets you stroll the length of the Pismo Beach coast without getting sand in your shoes.

• Guest rooms feature fireplaces, flat-screen TVs, and free WiFi.
• Dine on fresh seafood at the onsite restaurant, which overlooks the ocean.

Pismo Beach, California: Surf Town Close to Wine Country

Pismo Beach is a small city with the recipe for California-coast appeal: sun, sand, surf, and a backdrop of hills overlooking a valley of vineyards. Weather is key to the beach culture here; Pismo Beach enjoys 315 days of sunshine each year and temperatures ranging from 66 to 84 degrees. Year-round, surfers descend on the 23-mile coast along with vacationers looking to get tans. Visitors explore isolated dunes on the southern end of town and fish off the central pier.

The warm weather and misty mornings of this coastal stretch also provide great conditions for winemaking in the nearby Edna Valley. With one of California’s longest growing seasons, the Edna Valley AVA has some of the region’s best wineries, producing large quantities of chardonnay, pinot noir, and syrah.

Hotel at a Glance: Red Lion Hotel Anaheim Resort

On many nights in Anaheim, the sky lights up with fireworks set off by Disneyland—a close neighbor of Red Lion Hotel Anaheim Resort. Snuggle up around the hotel’s outdoor fire pit to watch the brilliant display. You can walk to the theme park’s main gate—less than one block away—or take advantage of the Anaheim Resort Transit bus system, which stops in front of the hotel. And be sure to use the hotel’s onsite Disney Desk to purchase tickets ahead of time so you can skip the line at the gate.

• Where you’ll stay: a guest room with a mini fridge, a microwave, a flat-screen TV, a Keurig coffeemaker, and free WiFi
• Make a splash in the heated outdoor pool.
• Onsite dining: The hotel’s newly remodeled restaurant serves all-American favorites such as burgers, plus smoothies.
• Head to Long Beach to play volleyball, tour the Queen Mary, or make a sand castle—it’s just 20 miles away.
• Extra perk: Daily parking is included with this getaway.

Anaheim, California: Magical Play Land Outside LA

Less than 35 miles from Hollywood, Anaheim is perfectly situated for making the most of a Southern California getaway. But most visitors never make it that far, as Disneyland Park has long dominated the city’s tourism scene. As Walt Disney’s original park, it has a handful of classic attractions that, though upgraded over the years, have been around since the park opened in 1955. You can ride the Mad Tea Party spinning teacups, hop on the King Arthur Carrousel, or sail in the Storybook Land Canal Boats (Walt Disney personally planted the small pine near Geppetto’s home).

Disneyland Park has plenty of modern rides too, including Cars Land, one of the newer additions to Disney California Adventure Park and a life-size re-creation of the town from Disney Pixar’s Cars. The highlight here is the slot-car attraction, which puts you in an automated vehicle that swerves around animatronic characters before engaging another car in a high-speed race.

Palm Springs, California: SoCal Resort Town with Midcentury Charm

Palm Springs is an oasis of outdoor recreation and old Hollywood glamour about 100 miles east of Los Angeles. Once the stomping grounds of Elvis Presley and the Rat Pack, the town still attracts A-list vacationers. Strolls through the Movie Colony take visitors past the former homes of Dean Martin, Bob Hope, and Marilyn Monroe. Furniture and clothing boutiques along Palm Canyon Drive embrace Palm Springs’ trademark aesthetic—what might be called Mad Men West.

The sun shines more than 300 days a year in Palm Springs, which means people can golf or hike in the nearby Agua Caliente Indian Canyons no matter the season. On the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, cars rotate 360 degrees as they carry passengers to Mount San Jacinto’s Mountain Station, located 8,516 feet above sea level. About 40 miles northeast is Joshua Tree National Park, which spans parts of the Colorado and Mojave Deserts. The 12 nature trails give hikers the chance to see desert bighorn sheep and black-tailed jackrabbits.
