California vacations are cheaper than ever

As western states girl through and through, it may come to now surprise that San Francisco has long been one of my favorite places in the world. Neatly stacked houses on hilly streets, the sparkling bay, the Golden Gate Bridge, sunny California days and fog rolling in off the Pacific all make me love San Fran. I’ll almost use any excuse to pack up my bags and head to the Bay, which is why I jumped when I saw this fantastic deal for big discounts at many San Francisco hotels.

If you are looking to save even more money, you can also book your hotel and flight together for even bigger savings. Travelocity has some pretty hot offers on San Francisco packages right now, with savings of up to 30% at hotels like the W. In fact, right now you could enjoy a 4-night California vacation for under $500 per person.

For those coming from my Texas and who’d rather head to the sunny beaches of southern California, there is a great article in the Examiner about round-trip tickets from Dallas to Long Beach starting at under $170-round-trip. Pairing that airfare with some of the great deals you can find on hotels right now and you could have a California vacation for a lot less than you thought possible.
