“wonderful resort-an oais in Los Angeles...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

This is an amazing property with extraordinary service, food & beverage. The spa is amazing and one of the best in all of Los Angeles. The views are worth a million dollars alone! An amazing oasis in the midst of a metropolis... The decor is a bit staid but everything else about Terranea is world class and definitely 5-stars plus +++...

Room Tip: Pick a peninsula sea view...Gorgeous!

“No mini bar = rip off”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012 via mobile

I showed up at this resort after a long, bad flight and all I wanted in the world was one beer from the mini bar. Well, turns out they don't have mini bars--so I had to call room service. I ordered a bucket of five beers because I felt weird ordering one--and the guy didn't arrive until 35 minutes later. I tipped him (wouldn't have had to tip the mini bar) but discovered upon checking out that the total for my beers was almost $80, thanks to the fact that the service charge had been automatically added to my room-service order, tho no one had told me that. So my tip ended up being about 50% for slow service when all I wanted was a mini bar. This was a waste of time and money.

“The view from the hotel balcony made my trip”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

This was my first time at Terranea and I was very impressed. I am a travel professional and spend half my year in hotels around the world and Terranea stood out to me. My room was very large, nice sitting area and had two balconies facing the ocean. To hear the waves breaking while you are in the room was fantastic and I tell the truth when I say in the morning I could see dolphins whamming up the coastline directly from my bedroom balcony, it was a postcard moment. Dinner at the retardant was great, we all loved the deserts as well. My only complaint is that I didn't get enough time at the resort to fully explore the property and see what else it has to offer besides great rooms, great views and great food. Thanks to Ron and the team for making our stay so memorable.

“Terranea is very luxurious and it felt like the best kept secret get away location.....”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

Terranea is very luxurious and it felt like the best kept secret get away location.....

Definitely make time to see the property and visit the spa! The hiking, the beach, the cove, the light house, horseback riding, whale watching, dolphin watching.... The lists of this to do there went on and on....

Terranea’s staff is excellent and worked with to ensure that we had the best experience.

Room Tip: Ocean View Only!! It's amazing!

“LA's best kept resort secret”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012

It's hard to believe there are two million people just over the ridge line from Terranea but you will feel a world away from LA without having to go far from it. Top shelf service, dog friendly, superb accommodations, tremendous spa, great selection of restaurants and views of which you will never tire.
