House Or Rental
THIS LADIES & GENTS IS THE MONEY MAKER RIGHT HERE! If you asked me what the best option is, I'd advise to get a group of people together and split an Airbnb. There are some AMAZINGGGGGG Airbnbs in Ojai, I am talking gorgeous and affordable. For this option I'd make extra sure before you book that you are no more than 15 minutes from Ojai as in some areas Uber and Lyft are nonexistent. I'd also check out Ojai Luxury Vacation Rentals if you are able to get a group of 10+ together, the houses are insane! Price point you ask? LEGIT! When split among couples all of the Airbnb's I researched for y'all in the area come out to be about $200-300 per night when split per couple/family. Thats a deal, find it, book it!
Flight
This is one of two options for your travel to Ojai, California! LAX is about an hour and 30 minutes from Ojai. (think O'hare to Naperville during rush hour traffic) Flights tend to be cheaper and there is also more direct flights to LAX.
Flight
Option two, SBA! This airport is much smaller but only 40 minutes from your final destination in Ojai. It may also have less options for direct flights and potentially be more costly. On the bright side, it is only seven minutes from downtown Santa Barbara. Santa Barbara is worth a pitstop on your way to Ojai; the town is gorgeous. Stop for a meal, walk to the pier and then thank me later.
Rental Car
Vroom Vroom! You will need some wheels on this trip. Since both airports are a bit away, the cost of an Uber can be high and transportation in Ojai is limited; the best way to get around would be renting a car. Keep in mind that both airports get booked up quickly, both LAX and SBA. I would recommend Thrifty! For example, a four day rental from Wednesday, July 15th till Sunday, July 19th would total $305, that includes taxes and fees.
