Anybody Have Good Vacation Recommendations?

[fw3]

My wife and I desperately need some vacation time alone, away from the kids, and we started planning a trip to Los Santos in about a month or so.

Since we've never actually been there, I was wondering if anyone could recommend their favorite spots?

Here's what we're looking for (we're not on the super-cheap, here, but we do only wish to spend where it counts):
• Accommodations: A good hotel, B&B/Air B&B, a rental or sublet. We've seen pics of those mansions, too! We're open to staying in or outside the city.
• Dining: What are some of the better dining spots you might recommend? Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, of course, but also quick places and coffee shops?
• Car Rentals: We'd like to change up what we drive each day. Off-roading one day, economy car the next, and maybe a fancy car for Saturday night. Any car thoughts?
• Site Seeing: What are some of your favorite places to  get to know Los Santos? We heard of a dam and an observatory... worth checking out?
• Excursions: We definitely want to take in some adventures in the ocean and maybe even do some hiking or ATVing. Any thoughts?
• Night Life: We were told there's a ton of night clubs and nightlife activity – any recommendations on specific places to dance or have cocktails?
• After Hours:  Before kids, we were pretty wild. Are there are any "after hours" places to visit or locations to pickup a "friend" to help show us a good time?

Thanks in advance for your help with this. I'd buy a Fodor's guide, but I have yet to see one anywhere for Los Santos.

We're already looking forward to this vacation! Cheers!

I would get the boat, airports a bit crowded atm lol

forgot it's an island lol

[Sanches]

I was thinking if that's some ARG related to real LA or not.




• Accommodations: Don't know any hotels, but Del Perro is a great district, you guys should look around there.
• Dining: Well, my kitchen is not a 5 star hotel, but feel free to grab a Pisswasser from my fridge. Make sure it's not flat tho.
• Car Rentals: You can borrow my matte red Emperor. Trunk bats and crowbars included.
• Site Seeing: While in a city, you can get shot by the careless police. While in the county, you'll probably get shot by rednecks. Why not take D&S mercs to show you around safely?
• Excursions: Rent our helicopter and shoot some dank photos from the above.
• Night Life: Again, Del Perro can offer you a nightclub, but last 100 times i tried to enter, it was closed. Pier is fine, i guess.
• After Hours: Pillow fight!!

 

 

I'll be waiting~

Lol @Sanches. Run Away indeed!

 

Head to Vice City or Las Venturas I say. Gets a bit frosty in the heat of LS.

I heard Los Santos airport is currently a highly lucrative and sought-after place to visit more so if you see people running around in circles.......... 

 

 

[El Payaso]

The most important thing you will want to do is stop by your local Ammunation. Trust me, you'd be stupid not to carry. As for car rentals? You're in luck. The entire city is one giant car rental. Just hop in any car you see.

[Pankypops]

Remember, whatever you do, use the passive mode feature upon exiting the airport terminal. There's a lot of terrorists who own the city and fly around on rocket bikes.

[Urban Legends]

Nightlife: Galaxy nightclub open 3pm daily. Free admission M-T with varied cover charges friday/sat/sunday. Newly remodeled part of the La Mesa district. Mention the word "GoGo Galaxy" at the nearby Ammunition for 10% off the firing range  

 

Likewise, as President of my Motorcycle club I offer ride alongs for the inexperienced rider or hot couple who need to "borrow" the back of my Stretch limo for a little boom boom time. Rates as low as $69 an hour! Discreet billing. 

[Standard Deluxe 59]

Accommodations: Unless you have a membership at the beach club off Great Ocean HWY you ain't finding any right on the beach since the wackjobs running San Andreas seem to have put a ban on beachfront hotels. So try Del Perro for beach near hotels. 

Dining: Why the local 24/7 Of course where you can stock up on super snacks. Everywhere else is always closed. 

Car rentals: Stop by Standard Deluxe Corporation's office in the Lombank building in Del Perro, we'll let you rent anything in the attached car museum so long as you pay a 15% of the car's value deposit. Daily rates vary on the car rented, we don't have any economy cars however.

Site Seeing: The Standard Deluxe Car Museum, the beach, the pier, Vinewood Sign, and maybe some of the theaters if you like those things. 

Excursions: Well there's mountain ranges up north.

Nightlife: Try some of the newly opened nightclubs, some are still popping with people.

After hours: There's always some friendly ladies along the Vespucci alleyways and probably some hourly rate motels around there too. 

Make sure you get a hold of a guy named Lester, he'll get the cops off you  if you happen to get caught with a sidewalk Sally. 

[deadx23]

You can book a good hotel with awesome wifi just bring your console and you can experience everything you wish with out leaving you can even oder in!

Already posted, but:

 

I hear the airport's a hot spot.  

 

Also, there's a place in the hills if you like to get nekkid and fire off flare guns...

Take your kids to the beach and watch a bunch of tryhards commit suicide. No rpgs. Ride the ferris wheel.

• Accommodations: I recommend Hotel Crowne, previously known as Vinewood Gardens.

 

(At the corner of Spanish Avenue and Power Street)

 

Just drop my name, ask for the Crowne experience & they'll hook you up.

 

A Penthouse suite or the Presidential Suite.

A "Sommelier" service.

A "Tailor" for all your occasions.

A "Cleaning" service for all your special needs.

24/7 Security.

 

Quick reminder, No "business" can be conducted on the Hotel premises.

• Dining: The Hotel's renowned chefs will cook everything your heart desires, but if you want a piece of the real Los Santos, Hunt down one of the infamous Attack-A-Taco trucks. 

 

• Car Rentals: you'll get exclusive access to our fleet's armored Cognoscentis & armored Baller LWBs with a former Secret Service chauffeur, SuperVolitos & Nimbus Private Jets.

We'll happily provide a 9F Spyder, a Kamacho, a Windsor Drop & so on .... This is Los Santos after all & people here do love a soft top.

• Excursions: Hiking Mount Chiliad, Camping in Mount Gordo, Chasing the old gold fever at Great Chaparral, Swimming with the sharks, Spelunking or a romantic trip to wine country ... We got you covered.

• Night Life: Welcome to Paradise in Downtown Vinewood.

• After Hours: there's always the Vanilla Unicorn or the Hornbills.

Or just stand really close to them in passive, maybe dance, or high five every time someone drops.

......

I can attest to the accommodations, I stay there every time I rob the Vinewood bank.

Well, I stay on the roof 'til the coast clears. I guess that counts.

This is so great, @IceDree! Thank you! I just told my wife about the Sommelier service and she got all giddy.

I'll be sure to ask for the Crowne experience when I call! lol!!!

• Accommodations: Von crastenburg hotel is the first thing that snap to my mind, why? Lots of sites from vinewood to LSIA, The templar hotel also good along with richman hotel but if you wanted more there's gentry manor hotel, opium nights hotel, pegassus concierge hotel all of them located in vinewood strip, or perhaps you want a full package hotel near the beach? The viceroy resort is the answer, what's that? You need a low budget hotel? Damn man, well i'm sorry to tell you but motels are the only options left, perrera beach motel near the del perro pier, and some motel around davis area if you want to experience some west coast gang bang

• Dining: Breakfast? I would say Bite! Would be nice it's like subway sandwhich fast and easy to eat, If you want to eat a good fried chicken then lucky plucker is the answer, you want to chill and just sip a cofee? Bean machine is the place rumour has it that jimmy boston also go there every weekend! But for a fancy dining La spada around del perro beach is good or the sunset dinner in del perro pier's pearl seafood, yummm!

• Car Rentals: There's a few car rentals in LS if you want a pocket friendly rentals i suggest to use olympian, escalera or jiffy rentals, they had a broad selection of vehicles from dinka blista to obey rocoto, but if you wanted something that can fly or something luxury you might want to use pegassus concierge rent a limo from cognoscenti, benefactor, enus or even an aircraft for $200

• Site Seeing: Well since you brought your kids along I would suggest a family friendly place like the galileo observatory some nice view up there, legion square is also nice some modern architecture open park in LS, or the generic vespucci beach is also great, you can also check out some abandoned gold mine railroad in the grand senora desert legend has it that it is owned by some guy called marston, and there's an incident in the 1940s causing one police officer called phelps adrift through that tunnel while investigating the black dahlia murder, mirror park is also nice, a little park with little lake and hipsters lol

• Excursions: Some family time? Outdoor? Well there's this machiavelli 10 miler that you can hear in radio commercial, it's like triathlon jumping through the sewage pit, running around through the desert and so on, but if that's not enough there are some mx racer around raton canyon they usually race around midnight though, careful you can get kidnapped by some cult called altruist in there, you can also visit the paleto forest lots of unique butterflies and insects in there beware of the cougar though they always eats cock for dinner lol (get it? Cougar? No? Ok then lol) my best bet is to stay in LS and bike riding around del perro or speedboat around the beach

• Night Life: Lots of attractions indeed ranging from the family friendly del perro pier with the mini amusement parks that includes some roller coaster and ferris wheel! Or if you want to grasp some latin culture they're always throwing a party near the Vinewood police precinct there's an open field with lights and mariachi playing music, The vespucci beach is also a great place to mingle set up a campfire and just watch the waves man, There's also a hidden event a lowrider meet every weekend on davis or east LS, but beware though sometimes it will end up as a gangbang, blap blap blap gangsta style! Lol 

• After Hours:  Well bahamas mamas is one of the finest nightclub in town until a new club called galaxy appeared last year, which is owned by me! Yes come to galaxy just around the opium nights hotel around LSIA, I make some deals with the hotel management so that every guest get 5% discount of the macbeth whiskey, diamond champagne etc, and there is also some couple nights on saturday for only $100 you'll be a VIP and chaffeured by some of my drivers and get a vip room in my nightclub, sadly though we don't have strippers if you want some wild action you have to go to the vanilla unicorn and have a party with their top models chastity infernus or even fufu

My pleasure

 

Just wait till she finds out that we'll fly her to Milano & Paris for shopping! Maybe even stop at the Liberty City Fashion Week on the way back.

[Spectre "2K"]

just ignore the abundance of military vehicles, we're currently occupied at the moment. Also, if you see any experimental hover bikes flying around, don't worry. They're probably not after you...probably

Brilliant, @MsBrandi. Just brilliant! And yes, I am well aware to watch out for hungry cougars! lol!

Love the campfire idea, as there actually are groups of people hanging out, playing guitar, chilling on the beach.

And 5% off the MacBeth is a pretty sweet deal! hehe!!! Well done, m8!

I'm all in for that, as long as Zack Posen is there!

[TeammateHelper]

Got an apt in Del Perro you can rent, fairly cheap for a one-week stay, but we can negotiate prices.

 

It's near the beach too! Of course, sometimes someone parks their fighter jet there, so just make room for that.
