Best Plaes to Stay in California for Memorial Day Weekend
The first thing to determine on your Memorial Day weekend California trip is to figure out where you are going to be staying. The traditional way people think you have to stay in California is in a traditional hotel or resort room. This is almost always a hassle because you have people double bunking in small hotel rooms that have no real amenities to help you enjoy your stay. We suggest trying out a vacation rental instead. Vacation rentals are full homes, townhomes, condos, and cabins that are available to rent and priced competitively with hotel and resort prices. Unlike similar services where you rent a room in a home, these rentals give you access to the entire home and the peace and privacy that goes with it. Your rental price often includes access to a full kitchen, game rooms, premier outside amenities, and immersion in the local culture rather than being trapped in the tourist bubble.
Perks and Amenities
There are many perks and amenities that come with renting a vacation home, especially during Memorial Day Weekend in California. The biggest and most important feature of a vacation rental is access to a fully equipped kitchen. A bulk of the costs associated with a vacation comes with eating out for every meal. Since vacation rentals give you access to an entire home, many come with a kitchen that is stocked with plates, silverware, pots and pans, cups, and anything else you may need to cook a full meal. Having a fully equipped kitchen will allow you to cut back on your food spending and eat some of your meals at home rather than eating out. We are sure that you are looking forward to eating some of the local cuisines, but it’s always helpful to save money where you can to make sure you can splurge when visiting local hotspots in California. This money-saving opportunity allows you more chances to enjoy California’s local amenities like theme parks, mountain ranges, or any one of the amazing natural wonders.
These perks especially ring true for Memorial Day Weekend. Since many are looking to barbeque and get outside for this holiday, many of the best places to stay in California come equipped with outdoor patios, decks, and barbeque grills for your Memorial Day party. Since California has beautiful weather year-round, many vacation rentals also come with an onsite pool. This amazing amenity is the perfect addition to your Memorial Day Weekend trip. No longer will you need to fight long lines at a water park or deal with hectic parking at the beach, you can have your own little piece of paradise right on the property.
