to & from
Fly into LAX and out of John Wayne airports.
Rent a car at LAX and return it at John Wayne. Allow plenty of time at LAX to deal with car rental — you need to take a bus to the lot and busses were passing us up when we were waiting because they were full.
Where to Stay
We stayed at Loews in Santa Monica which was easy and a great location. Request a view room. They have a great little little coffee bar by the pool with breakfast pastries to grab on your way out the door in the morning.
