Our stay at Dale's house was comfortable and peaceful. The location is perfect - on a walking street in Venice, which provides privacy and quiet, but within walking distance of great restaurants, Abbott Kinney, and the beach. The amenities were top notch -- Aesop products in the bathrooms, incredible lighting and sound system throughout the house, and a fantastic espresso maker (all very important!). He also provided us with terrific suggestions for food & drink (Superba was our breakfast/brunch go to). After a long few weeks of intense work projects, our mini vacation at Dale's house was exactly the reset & recharge we needed.
