How about beautiful Santa Monica? Great weather, the beach is across the street, and I have a close personal relationship with a great hotel there where you could get such a deal. ( http://www.fairmont.com/FA/en/CDA/Home/Hotels/AboutHote l/CDHotelHomePage/0,2993,property%25255Fseq%253D100119,00.html.) Plus LAX is so easy to fly into (sometimes). Not to mention that there are a great bunch of FlyerTalkers in the LA area.
