It may be in the heart of Los Angeles and surrounded by some of the most raucous theme parks in the world, but guests of hotels near Sonoma to San Diego all gravitate towards this part of Los Angeles on their visit to the city. This should come as no surprise, not only does Buena Park and its surrounding area have some of the best options for hotel visits but family fun and relaxation too.
Located in Orange County, Buena Park means “Good” Park, and it certainly lives up to its name. Whether you’re visiting from San Jose hotels or simply on a day trip from another part of Los Angeles, you’ll no doubt notice the wide, palm tree-lined streets, luxury condos and ample tourist attractions. This blog however, will be focused less on the rip roaring adrenaline rushes you can enjoy in the area, but the quieter attractions for when you need a breather from the hustle and bustle.
Boisseranc Park
20 acres in size, Boisseranc Park is the ideal spot for a picnic in the OC sunshine, or perhaps a spot of tennis or basketball on the courts. During October, you can expect to find foodboths and carnival rides, whilst throughout the year free concerts take place on the grounds, providing visiting guests from the best hotels near Calabasas with a more communal taste of LA. There’s plenty of open green space for dog walking and jogging, and the simplicity of a park might be the perfect antidote to a day out in Disneyland, just five miles away.
Olympic Golf Zone
From basketball to golf, the Olympic Golf Zone is an ideal rainy day solution for when your Buena Park plans have been scuppered by bad weather. This sports bar and simulator experience is located on Beach Boulevard and combines good food and drinks with golf and baseball experiences. Practice your putt in a lifelike, sensitive simulation all whilst enjoying the best in pub grub.
Ralph B Clark Park
Spanning more than 100 acres, Ralph B Clark Park is the largest of its kind in Buena Park and has baseball fields, barbecue areas, an amphitheater and fishing facilities alongside much more. With everything you need for a family day out in the park, Ralph B Clark exceeds expectations of the everyday urban green space with the Ralph B Clark Interpretive Center. This visitors center holds information and exhibits concerning the surrounding Coyote Hills and the prehistoric history of the area.
Beach Boulevard Club
Guests of the Good Nite Inn Buena Park can find the Beach Boulevard Club at 7600 Beach Boulevard, where nights to remember (or not, depending on the amount of cocktails) will no doubt ensue. The Beach Boulevard Club is a popular adult hangout thanks to its glitzy decor, dueling pianos and delicious menus. Inspired by the art deco architecture of the 1920s, the speakeasy vibes and piano soundtracks are the perfect way to unwind and relax during your stay in LA.
