Terranea Resort is honestly a sanctuary by the sea; grounding, and deeply restorative. The spa is extraordinary. Every detail was top notch, from the ocean-view relaxation spaces to the treatments themselves. The couples massage in the ocean view room with a balcony was unforgettable. Hearing the waves crashing below was incredible. The dining was just as memorable. At mar’sel, we sat at the bar our first night and had one of the most incredible meals, so good that we returned the next evening to savor it again in the dining room. We did find it tricky the first night to find it though, going up the big staircase on the left, through the pool, out the other side and down again. What made Terranea stand out for us is how its bother family and couple friendly. Terranea isn’t just a resort...it’s a place to reconnect with yourself, your loved ones, and the natural world. We went on the most enjoyable walks along the trails and exploring the property. For anyone seeking a blend of luxury, wellness, and soulful restoration, this is a place you’ll carry with you long after you leave.
