The Terranea Resort is a perfect option if you happen to be around Los Angeles.

The atmosphere at this resort is very friendly and it’s the first thing that gets you ready for an amazing weekend where you’ll be spending your nights in the five-star Rancho Palo Verdes Resort.

Here you have the option of exceptional food which is straight from the farm to your plate, an option of amazing spa sessions, and different activities in the ocean surrounding the resort. There are over 580 rooms but since this is not an everyday getaway, you should choose to stay in one of the twenty oceanfront bungalows or one of the fifty Casitas that has a beautiful ocean view. If you want to splurge a bit more you could opt for the private cove and beach which is also on the property.
