Zava Ranch - Avocado & Lemon Grove

1. Zava Ranch - Avocado & Lemon Grove

35mi from Santa Monica · 2 sites · Lodging · Somis, CA
A cozy stand-alone cottage (sleeps 2) and a guest house (sleeps 10) are situated in the heart of our 20-acre working lemon and avocado ranch in Somis (Ventura County) on California’s Central Coast. Wake to birdsong over the citrus groves, sip coffee on the patio, swing in a hammock, or hike up the hill to catch panoramic views of the California countryside and big-sky sunsets. Breathe in the fresh, citrus-blossom–infused air as you wander through palms, pines, and eucalyptus groves. Walk up the hill to take in the beautiful sunset over the rolling farmland. Pick your own lemons and cook in your fully equipped kitchen. We’re super friendly to kids, pets, and guests with limited mobility. Whether you’re looking for a farm stay, romantic getaway, family reunion, friends’ retreat, small group gathering, or a quiet place for reflection and self-care, this is your peaceful escape. Charming, relaxing, and comfortable — guests can explore most of the 20-acre orchard and the gated community, with plenty of opportunities for scenic hikes and bike rides. Owners/hosts live on the property. Distance to favorites • Ventura/Oxnard beaches – ~30 min • Shopping, restaurants, and attractions – 20–30 min • Conejo Valley / Santa Monica Mountains – ~30 min • Ventura, Thousand Oaks, Simi Valley, Moorpark, Santa Paula – 20–30 min • Camarillo Premium Outlets – ~20 min • Ojai – 40–45 min • Los Angeles / LAX – ~1 hr • Santa Barbara – ~1 hr • Local wineries and farm stands – 10–25 min

Huttopia Paradise Springs

2. Huttopia Paradise Springs

46mi from Santa Monica · 3 sites · Lodging · Valyermo, CA
French below - With its untouched natural beauty, fresh mountain air, and golden sunlight filtering through the trees, it’s easy to see why Paradise Springs became the perfect setting for our very first Huttopia resort on the West Coast. Nestled high in the San Gabriel Mountains, within the heart of the protected Angeles National Forest, Huttopia Paradise Springs offers a true retreat into the wild. For generations, this hidden gem has drawn those seeking to escape the buzz of greater Los Angeles and reconnect with nature. Tucked within a wide canyon, Paradise Springs is a true oasis—surrounded by vibrant desert flora and nourished by a crystal-clear artesian spring that feeds a meandering creek all year round. It’s wild, serene, and effortlessly magical—just as paradise should be. -- Avec sa nature préservée, son air pur de montagne et la lumière dorée filtrant à travers les arbres, il est facile de comprendre pourquoi Paradise Springs a été le choix évident pour notre tout premier site Huttopia sur la côte Ouest. Nichée au cœur des montagnes San Gabriel, dans la forêt nationale protégée d’Angeles, Huttopia Paradise Springs offre une véritable échappée sauvage. Depuis des générations, ce lieu secret attire ceux qui souhaitent fuir l’agitation de la grande région de Los Angeles pour se reconnecter à la nature. Au creux d’un large canyon, Paradise Springs est une oasis authentique, entourée d’une végétation désertique luxuriante et alimentée par une source artésienne qui fait vivre un ruisseau sinueux tout au long de l’année. Sauvage, paisible et naturellement magique — c’est exactement notre idée du paradis.
