Terranea Resort In Palos Verdes Celebrates Fifth Anniversary!
On Sunday, I attended a reception in honor of Terranea’s Fifth Anniversary Celebration. It was held at Terranea Resort on the lawn overlooking the ocean. The weather was perfect, the food was delicious and it was good to see so many familiar faces. I am happy for their success and have enjoyed the Resort on many occasions – as a hotel guest, a restaurant patron, a spa guest and an attendee at several events and fundraisers.
Terranea has always welcomed the area residents even when we just want to stroll the grounds and take the beauty of the resort and the ocean. There is a great walking path along the bluff that goes down to the private beach with its own cave! Terranea Resort is still offering its TerraNeighbor 25% discount when making room reservations to local residents who must present identification at check-in to show a 90274 or 90275 zip code. They tell me it is strictly enforced!
