The suites are way more money then even two rooms and they don't have connecting rooms. So I guess sneaking the kids in it is...
Airbnb

Personally didn't go but I know it's doable. SFO weather should be great then and I enjoyed a couple days there. There's also Muir woods right there which is nice.

Thanks but looking more in the middle of US or not the West Coast per say unless there is something closer to Redwood or Oregon that makes sense.

Nearish Redwood is Lassen Volcanic and Crater Lake.  Both nice options.  Did the three as a small road trip one year.

As an aside, since you mentioned Redwood, Redwood is actually farther north than NYC.

What time of year?  If not the height of summer, the obvious stopover on AA would be Phoenix and you could do some cool desert jeep tours, a hot air balloon over beautiful scenery and great kosher restaurants as well.

Maximum two to four hour flight from tlv.  Good place to visit in December.  Place you can get around by public transportation and can use ihg points.  Did Malta this  summer and it was perfect.  Will need paid flight so also not expensive.

Looking to fly somewhere warm 4-5 hours from NY-NJ area in a few weeks.
No zika.
I want to use my Avios or UR points to fly and use my Marriott points for a hotel.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
