Reviews for Terranea Resort
Nelson’s with Fantastic Views and tremendous food.
Here with my daughter for some quality time. We went on a scenic walk along the cliffs and finished it off with some excellent food and service with great views at Nelsons. Tabatha was wonderful and attentive. I highly recommend this place. You will not be disappointed.

Beautiful and peaceful paradise
This resort is absolutely what I was looking for; a peaceful vacation with my family. The views are stunning, the food is delicious, and the service is impeccable. Huge thank you, and shout out to Rachel, Ernesto, Deb, Ashley, and Mason. They were all so amazing! Highly recommend!

The best part of a bad situation!
We had to evacuate our home due to a local landslide, and our family stayed in several hotels over the past two months. When we finally landed at Terranea (near our damaged home), we were truly impressed and amazed by the physical property as well as the attitude of all the staff. It has been a very stressful experience, but the mellowness of the atmosphere and the caring of the people there was quite beneficial. I could see that they acted well around regular guests also, but the fact that they considered us "neighbors"--as opposed to the other nearby hotels--really was helpful. I stay at a lot of properties for business, but can truly say that this is a group, from top to bottom, that appreciates their guests and treats them well. Of course, the scenery and the facilities (spa, pools, restaurants, coffee shop, etc) made our extended visit even better. [And the scenery from our room--priceless! Similar to the time we went on a cruise--big view of the Pacific Ocean]. By the way, the resort is near the landslide, but not impacted by it. Staying here you have no idea of the issues a mile away--these are restricted to just two neighborhoods built upon a hill--not the resort which is on a flatter section. All in all, Terranea was the best part of a bad situation. If we didn't have outside things to worry about, this would have been a vacation of a lifetime!

Outstanding and unparalleled
We came to Terranea as it was a great home base location for various meetings I had in the area. It worked out better than I could have imagined as literally EVERYONE I had meetings with wanted to come to Terranea and have them there. Once we got there I realized why ... WOW is this property beautiful. The setting is incredible, the rooms are clean and lovely, the views are breathtaking and the amenities are all excellent. Whether it be for personal, business, personal event or business event you cannot pick a nicer venue/resort. Upon recommendation from the concierge we had lunch at Nelson's on our first day and my wife immediately stated "this is where I want to have lunch every day!". And we did. And we miss it! Terranea is a gem, an A+ in every regard.

Family Memories
We recently held a reunion at Terranea celebrating a family milestone. The resort absolutely exceeded all of our expectations. From the thoughtful care taken prior to arrival to ensure all of the details were correct, to the kid friendly amenities and family options at the pool and around the resort, to the late-night lounge experience for after-hours entertainment, everything was perfection. The team at Terranea embodies hospitality and professionalism and we will absolutely be going back the next chance we get! Thank you!

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.
-J. Roles
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.
