The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Round trip $260 per person, $140 below the typical fare
- Typical highs of 67–76°F, clear skies the first three days
- Free cancellation at all three stays we picked
The catch: Frontier's outbound has one stop and takes 6h 3m, landing at 12:23 AM, and a checked bag runs about $240 for two, which isn't in the total.
Worth it if a late one-stop flight is fine for a week of beaches, tacos and studio tours; skip it if you want the $398 nonstop.
Worth it if a late flight with one stop works for you: the trip is $1,631 for two, all in. That's the Frontier round trip at $520 plus 7 nights at Melrose Luxe Retreat ENTIRE HOME just yours near The Grove at $986, with its $125 property fees and taxes included. You leave Saturday, Nov 14, and come home Nov 21, 2026, and the outbound has one stop rather than flying nonstop.

Why now
At $260 per person, the Frontier fare is $140 below the typical fare on this route. That's a 35% gap, and it's the lowest fare we've seen in 30 days across 17 checks. The only nonstop we found, on American, costs $398 per person. Mid-November in Los Angeles usually brings highs of 67–76°F and lows near 50°F. Expect clear skies for the first few days and overcast skies later in the week, which is good weather for biking the beach path, hiking up to Griffith Observatory or spending a long day at Disneyland. The rainy-season note for this city covers January and February, not these dates. Seven nights gives you time to split the week between the coast, the museums and a theme park without rushing. All prices were all-in when we checked and can change before you book.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-beach week that mixes in food and some theme-park time. It suits a couple or two friends who like having a lot of choice: tacos one night, the Getty the next day, a bike ride along the Pacific after that. You can set the pace. Do one big thing a day and keep the evenings slow, or pack the week full. Either way it's an easy week away with no passport needed.
