Nurturing Nature in California October 15, 2008 Terranea Resort will appeal to eco-conscious incentive travelers
By Jeanie Casison
When the Terranea Resort opens in June 2009, elements honoring the environment will be evident throughout the entire property. Positive practices ranging from the use of recycled materials to the promotion of local wildlife habitats to green training for employees, paperless meetings and more will ensure ecological sustainability for the future.
Situated on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, the 582-room resort featuring a 360-room hotel makes for one attractive retreat for those organizations committed to corporate sustainability and reliability. As for amenities and services that will appeal to incentive groups, Terranea Resort will feature a nine-hole par three golf course, a 25,000 square foot spa, a salon, fitness facility, three swimming pools, and three ocean view restaurants, on property trails and a secluded beach cove.
"Terranea Resort's 102 oceanfront acres is conveniently positioned 20 miles between Los Angeles International and Long Beach Airports, which is critical for planners," says Ron Sandvig, director of sales for Terranea Resort. "The resort's 18,000 square foot ballroom and multiple ocean view indoor and outdoor venues allow for ease and flexibility in a beautiful natural setting. Planners will feel like they do not have to leave the property because of all the opportunities found on property. Many incentive programs have already booked, and we are pleased to report that we have ongoing site inspections weekly for interested groups." \
