When you’re on a weekend getaway, there’s nothing better than treating yourself to a spa day. I had the pleasure of staying at Terranea Resort in Palos Verdes, CA earlier this month and spent some time exploring the lovely Spa at Terranea .
I was swept away by the breathtaking views of the pacific coastline and shores. The spa literally sits on a cliff overlooking the ocean and is the perfect place to let go of your every day stresses. I had no choice but to get an treatment…I mean, how could you not indulge when you are on a mini-break from the real world. It was no surprise that I chose to get a massage and relieve all the tension in my upper shoulders.
From the minute I checked in, I was blown away by the tranquil vibes and calm atmosphere. No wonder Travel and Leisure magazine named them one of the Top 5 Best Spas in the U.S. I spent time relaxing outdoors where I enjoyed a private women’s area and laid out watching the water, listening to the waves and sipping on a glass of white wine. The Mediterranean style outdoor space also featured an awesome fire pit and hot tubs and I lost track of time just soaking in the sunshine (yes, it was a beautiful, sunny day in December with perfect weather).
I had the best message ever in which I literally fell asleep. And when I awoke from my slumber I regrettably wished I got the 90-minute treatment because I did not want it to end. I highly recommend treating yourself next time you are on a mini-vacation and have the chance to splurge on a luxurious spa day! You will not regret it,I promise.
