I was born and raised in sunny Southern California and will never tire of the West Coast, although I spent several years living in Southeast Asia, about as far from California as you can get. Wherever I am in the world, I love straying from the beaten path, experiencing local life, and discovering hidden gems - camera in hand. The beach is my happy place and when I am not there (or writing), you will usually find me baking, watching movies, and cuddling my pugs. I have traveled around the country and around the world, and it never, ever gets old. Being able to combine my passion for travel and my love of writing is nothing short of a dream.
As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
If we’re being honest, there really is no bad time to travel and enjoy natural beauty in the Golden State. That being said, there really is something special about spring in Southern California, especially if we’ve had a good bit of rain. The hills, trees, and fields are bursting with this almost-neon green and vibrant pops of colorful flowers – from manicured gardens to wild hillsides, and even the desert. Am I making you want to get out and explore? There is no better way to enjoy a new season than a great little vacation, and today, we have seven perfect spring getaways in Southern California.
Stay in this luxurious home nestled in the picture-perfect hills on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The stunning 3-bedroom home provides tranquility, gorgeous views, and access to beautiful hiking trails.
Not only can you relax in vibrant natural beauty but you are just a few minutes from several beautiful places to enjoy spring blooms and wildflowers including South Coast Botanic Garden, the Palos Verdes Nature Preserve, and White Point Nature Preserve. Check out this luxurious Palos Verdes retreat on Airbnb.
If you are interested in visiting the amazing Flower Fields in Carlsbad with your family or a group of friends, this oceanfront home is located close by and offers an amazing private mini-resort-style experience, perfect to start enjoying the outdoors this season.
The massive rooftop has a hot tub and fire pit to stay warm and cozy on cool evenings, a BBQ and dining area, and a cool cornhole green, all with ocean and sunset views. Once you are ready to head inside, play a game of pool or watch a movie in the theater bedroom. Start planning your ultimate spring vacay by visiting this oceanview home on Airbnb.
Watch the desert (yes, the desert!) spring to life at this incredible rental. Not only is spring a great time to enjoy the SoCal desert before the summer heat kicks in but it may surprise you that Joshua Tree National Park is known for its colorful spring wildflowers!
In this unique landscape, you will enjoy a custom-designed desert home with lots of windows, natural tones and textures, and incredible amenities that let you enjoy stunning views - hammock chairs, an outdoor kitchen, a propane fire pit, and a hot tub with a deck, just to name a few.

This spacious home is a fantastic spring getaway full of luxurious amenities. With vibrant and colorful touches throughout and breathtaking 360-degree views of the mountains, which are covered in green this time of year, you may not want to leave the property.
Spring is the perfect time to immerse yourself in rustic nature and lovable animals, which is exactly what you will find at the Triumph Oaks modern ranch guest house in Santa Clarita.
Enjoy a peaceful getaway surrounded by vibrant greenery, wake up to horses grazing near your door, interact with and feed the animals, collect organic eggs for breakfast, and enjoy a cozy evening by the fire as the sun goes down. Ready to check in? Visit this modern ranch house on Airbnb.
Temecula Valley is known for its picturesque wine country. While the vines are usually laden with grapes in late summer, the vineyards come to life with bright green leaves in the spring.
This serene and comfortable home on a private family vineyard offers panoramic views of the vines, mountains, and even early morning hot air balloon flights. Venture out for a day of wine tasting (I highly recommend visiting Wilson Creek Winery!) before coming back to enjoy a glass by the fire. Book your wine country getaway at this cozy vineyard home on Airbnb.
Last but far from least, settle into this gorgeous - and surprisingly affordable - home surrounded by lush greenery and just minutes from the spring wonderland of Chino Hills State Park.
Wake up to sweeping views, then after a day of hiking through the picturesque wildflower-filled hills, relax in the private sauna, soak in the jacuzzi tub, or sit and watch the sparkling city lights come up. Schedule your nature-filled escape to this spacious Chino Hills sanctuary on Airbnb.
