California vacation over winter break - need advice & recommendations

<p>vballmom, Oxnard has the Embassy Suites Mandalay Beach Hotel - it’s on the beach. I haven’t stayed there but have been to meetings and events there. </p>

<p>Also, the Santa Ynez Inn in Santa Ynez is a nice b&b style place that you might like.
In Westlake, south of Thousand Oaks, is the Four Seasons. They sometimes advertise getaway packages.</p>

<p>Hope that helps!</p>

<p>BTW, my S is loving CPSLO! Thanks fo the dorm/apt tips!</p>
