Flying into LAX for Halloween at Disneyland: where to stay for the beach half of the trip
Many visitors who fly into LAX for a Disneyland trip split it: park nights in Anaheim, then a few nights near the beach before the flight home. SpringHill Suites Los Angeles LAX/Manhattan Beach fits the beach nights, not the park days. It is 2.3 miles from the Manhattan Beach Pier (2.8 by road) and 26.9 miles from Disneyland, straight line (Journeyed, October 2026). Facts verified October 2026. This site is maintained on behalf of the hotel's ownership. Book on the official Marriott page.

How to split a Disneyland Halloween trip from LAX
- For park nights, stay in Anaheim. A hotel within walking distance of the gate lets you take a midday break, which a 27-mile trip does not.
- For the beach nights before the flight home, stay near the beach and LAX. Book the Anaheim nights around your park dates first, then add the beach nights at the end.
- Check seasonal event dates, including Halloween and holiday events, on the official Disneyland site before you plan.
