The Garland

$ | 4222 Vineland Ave., Los Angeles, CA, 91602, USA Fodor's Choice

This Valley cool kid—a 7-acre hideaway that lures locals and out-of-towners with a stellar restaurant, fun bars, fabulous retro flair, and too many amenities and programming to list—comes with Hollywood pedigree as it was originally opened by '70s TV mom Beverly Garland and her husband in 1973. Lovingly restored and injected with kitschy life by her son and his husband a decade ago, rooms, all of which come with private balconies or patios, double-paned windows, are set in two separate buildings and brimming with pops of orange and loud mid-century patterns. Kids rooms have partitioned areas with bunk beds and DVD players while wellness suites are fitted with a Peloton Bike, BowFlex adjustable weights, white noise machines, and a Mirror fitness system. Spending the entirety of your vacation here would be easy with the large pool, hot tubs, fireplace, a park-like lawn where they hold yoga classes, live music on Thursday and Friday, a taco cart, great gift shop, and games in the courtyard. Want to explore beyond its borders? An adorable trolley can take you to Universal Studios or a metro station for free.
