Travel Info
Ojai is sometimes called Shangri La and is approximately 65 miles north of Los Angeles. We have a block of rooms reserved at the Lavender Inn, thanks to George Figueroa. Ojai is extremely pedestrian and bike friendly, has a town trolley, and is easy to navigate.
In addition to the Lavender Inn, some classmates may want to consider the Ojai Valley Inn, Su Nido, Ojai Rancho Inn, Blue Iguana or a nearby AirBnB.
Transportation:
For those flying into Los Angeles (LAX) or Burbank (BUR), direct ground transportation via SUV will be available to Class Members and their guests for arrivals on Wednesday, July 2 between 10:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Otherwise, commercial rental car and shuttle services are plentiful.
Alternative Lodging
For those classmates seeking alternative lodging, we recommend making hotel reservations as soon as possible.
Rates are per night, exclude tax, and may vary subject to availability.
Some venues offer discounts for non-refundable rooms, with payment due at time of booking.
