A guy at work is taking his family to CA for a week in early May. They want to rent a condo for the week rather than stay in a hotel. The main thing is they want to be in a nice area with low crime and nice restaurants, etc. I've been gone from CA for many years now so I could only sort of help him out with ideas. And I know that you can't just pick one city because many nice cities also have bad areas.

So... I'm open to suggestions.

Some of the ones I came up with are below. Let me know if there are good areas in said cities please. Thanks.

Irvine
Lake Forest
Costa Mesa
North Tustin???
Parts of Fullerton, Placentia and Yorba Linda?

But they also plan to go to Universal Studios and possibly Magic Mountian, so maybe an area further north could work too?

Thanks.

A beach house in Newport or Huntington beach lot to do for the kids and still pretty close to D-land

I agree, plus not sure where they are going to find anyplace else that will rent weekly.....

my thoughts exactly. but i dont know where to start looking. try vacation rentals dot com or something like that. he must have a pile of cash to spend. renting a furnished condo is not cheap. certainly hope he has some kind of discount on tickets too. its over 75 bucks ahead to get into the mouse house now a days. parking is another 10 or so bucks.

costs you 300 bucks for a family of four just to walk in the gate.

me, i got a hook up. i never pay for admission, but it does cost me plenty in the food and drink department, plus all the associated crap that goes with it.
