We are rocking and rolling this holiday season at Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA. Last week we kicked off our annual holiday tradition on December 1st with a festive evening and tree lighting ceremony called Celebration of the Season.

Thanksgiving is one of the best holidays. Giving thanks, crisp fall air, delicious scented candles, family, friends, the bottle of wine you have been waiting to open…but what about the food? According to the National Restaurant Association, this year an estimated 14 million Americans will dine out for Thanksgiving, and an additional 16 million Americans will order take-out to supplement their Thanksgiving feast.

Wow.   

I said it on my first interview and I caught myself saying it today, 9 months later, as I was turning down the driveway.  It reminds me of the saying, “Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away.”  After years at city properties staring at shiny black walls, I revel in the view of the Pacific Ocean from my desk.  I know the people who stay here, see it too...

In this day and age of global marketing... Where can you get something unique? Something made especially for you? From clothing to coffee.. you can travel the world and find the same brands, same style, same flavors.
