Tourists love Los Angeles so much that they’ve made it one of the world’s top destinations. Those of us who live here love it too, and there’s no reason out-of-towners should have all the fun.
L.A. is chock-full of phenomenal pools, spectacular spas and supercool five-star hotels just waiting for us to explore. Now there’s a way to do that without spending $500 a night.
It’s called a day pass. For as little as $20, you receive access to pools and other hotel amenities. Spend a day lounging beside a posh pool, drinking margaritas and nibbling on fish tacos while palm trees sway overhead. Then return home all without paying a room charge.

Good morning, fellow travelers. After a few weeks of offering virtual destinations and in light of California’s stay-home order lifting I’m back with some real-life ways to explore.
Times travel writer Christopher Reynolds and assistant travel editor Mary Forgione are reporting that national parks, hotels and restaurants are hustling to reopen after being surprised by the rollback of state COVID-19 rules.
Of course, that doesn’t mean we’re out of the woods, because Californians are still urged to stay within 120 miles of home. In the spirit of doing our part as travelers to limit the spread of the virus, have you discovered any safe nearby gems in the last few weeks?
