What a beautiful house this is! With its light decor and spacious plan. So clean and the beds had the softest linen you can imagine and the bathrooms had really thick towels (many of them) and the fact that there was schampo and conditioner was great so we didn't have to go and buy some. We especially appreciated the kitchen and the stove since we love to cook. There was plenty of tableware which was good since we had some friends staying over for a few days (which was no problem for Jo-Anne).
Everything was just super. We arrived late at night and Jo-Anne was waiting up for us, and there was a bottle of wine also waiting for us in the house. I think we forgot to thank you for that because we were really tired. We also left really late and we appreciated that we didn't have to check out earlier.
Abbot Kinney is only a few blocks away with all it's charm and great stores and restaurants. Gjelina is just down the street from the house - (their pizzas are the best in the world according to Gwyneth Paltrow). Another great restaurant is Feed, further down the street. Don't miss the Swedish store "Huset". They sell all kinds of Scandinavian design stuff. All in all our stay in Venice was awesome, especially since we didn't have a car, we appreciated being able to walk down to the beach with all its crazyness.
Our friends gave us a ride to see all the other places in LA such as Santa Monica, downtown LA (go have lunch at Bottega Louie!), Silverlake and of course Rodeo Drive.
Jo-Anne & David were really nice and attentive but never intruding. She even loaned us her sewing machine. We would definitely recommend their place any day any time!
