Reviews for Terranea Resort
OMG not turning out to be a good stay!
Been here several times in the Villas. So far, this trip has not been good and I’m still only waiting to check in. Was on stand by for an upgraded 3 bedroom villa and have been given conflicting information about its availability, and the availability of the 2 bedroom I reserved. As a guest who has been here at least 6-7 times, this may be my last frfr!

Great Views, Great Staff, Great Resort
I had the opportunity to come back and stay at Terranea Resort for the second time and let me tell you, ZERO DISAPPOINTMENTS! The staff were wonderful. My friends and I had an amazing time!! Our concierge, Daileah and Elizabeth, they sent up everything for us, room, amenity, cars, pool, cabana, restaurant reservations etc. They took care of us 100%! Cassie was the our server at the pool. Cabana was set for us to have a great time and relax. She was fun and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. If the opportunity happens again for me to visit LA, Terranea Resort will definitely be my home away from home!!

Unforgettable experience
What is a girls trip without great services and beautiful views?Terranea Resorts has all that we need and more. Daileah and Elizabeth help made our girls trip a success. They sent up everything for us from our room, the amenities, car rentals, pool,cabana, restaurant reservations and so on. Also Cassie our server at the pool was FANTASTIC. She has the patience of a saint and she made our day serving and mixing us food beverages. Without them our trip would be chaotic! My experience at Terranea was absolutely unforgettable. I recommend coming to this resort just once to experience it for one’s self! The beautiful west coast ocean view will not disappoint and so isn’t the services and amenities.

Excellent start to the day at a beautiful resort
The breakfast staff, Fellippe & Mona made our morning experience very special. Their attention to detail, superb service, friendly demeanour was lovely to see and uplifting for a great start to a lovely stay at a very special resort. It’s our third stay here from England and it’s a very individual resort and beautiful location.

UNUSUALLY FRIENDLY SERVICE
My wife and I just got back from a quick trip to Terranea. All was excellent especially the service. Eileen at the front desk and Philipe at the Catalina Kitchen were unusually helpful. Burt Ross

My husband and I returned from a two night stay and we fell in love with this special place. We will definitely go back again, and maybe even bring the kids next time. The service was terrific, the food amazing, and the spa fantastic!

My wife and I just returned from a 3-night stay at Terranea Resort. We bid and won the package on Luxury Link. The resort was spectacular and the service was second to none. From the moment we pulled our car up to the beautiful entrance we knew we were in for a treat. We arrived around noon and were a little concerned that we were too early to check in, but it was not a problem and we flew through the check-in. The view from our balcony was incredible. There was nothing between us and the blue Pacific Ocean. If we had to choose the best thing about the resort (which is hard to do), we would have to say the massages at the spa were the best we have ever had. This resort is all about service. The staff always had a smile on their faces and went out of their way to make sure you had everything you needed and you were having a good time. The resort is luxury without being pretentious. I don't have a single complaint or suggestion for improving my stay. Thanks for an incredible vacation.

My husband and I just returned from an absolutely fabulous weekend at Terranea. Our 2 night package from Luxury Link included a beautiful ocean view suite, fabulous massages and outstanding breakfasts. The grounds are amazing and we never even left the resort. On Friday and Saturday they have a jazz band that plays in the lobby that was world-class entertainment. Every one of their wonderful employees went out of their way to make our anniversary weekend special. I am so happy that I took the risk of bidding on my first Luxury Link package, as it exceeded all my expectations - and I got a fabulous deal! I will definitely use this site again!

We just returned from fantastic weekend birthday stay at Terranea in an ocean-view suite. Service was top-notch and the grounds are terrific. We watched the sun set into the ocean both nights. They even have a falconer that brings his birds out on a golf cart to deter sea gulls, including an enormous Northern European owl with orange eyes. There were great spa treatments and excellent restaurants, including the stand-out Mar'sel. We will be back.

My wife and I just stayed at the resort for 3 nights and it was fabulous. We received extraordinary service! Our meals, the room and the grounds are well worth the price we paid. We will go again and again. We can't say enough about the whole time we spent there.

When my husband and I booked our Terranea package, it seemed too good to be true. Connecting ocean view rooms, 2 massages, breakfast and parking included on a popular August weekend for $1,000? Turns out it was better than anything we could have imagined. The rooms are absolutely 5-star, and the property is breathtaking. The best part, however, was the staff - who really went out of their way to accommodate our every request. At the end of the weekend, the kids were well rested, we were well rested and we couldn't believe we never knew about this resort which is only 2 hours from San Diego. Fantastic. Perfect. Thank You.
