They say the Santa Ana winds whisper something secret and special. Miles of beautiful, unspoiled coastline, the incessant glamour of Old Hollywood, institutions that refuse to die. Old delis and bars long trusted; the raucous roar of the Sunset Strip and Boulevard. There’s daring in the air here: dreams sent to fail, or fly. But beneath the gloss of it all, something real shines through.
Los Angeles is a sprawling city with an enticing food scene, fabulous hikes, unmatched views and an enduring desert appeal, set on the Pacific edge of California in the United States.
Eat some of the world’s best tacos, climb up to the Griffith Observatory for a spot of stargazing (off the Walk of Fame), or head out to nearby Joshua Tree or Palm Springs for miles of enchanting desert. Explore our selection of Los Angeles holiday homes for your best 2026 Villa Holiday.
