Jet Luxury Resorts Adds The Terranea Luxury Resorts in Los Angeles

Continuing its unprecedented industry-leading resort management and reservation expansion, Jet Luxury Resorts has added the award-winning new luxury hotel, Terranea Resort in partnership with Destination Hotels and Resorts, to its established roster of 4 and 5 star destinations. This marks the seventh such acquisition for the premiere International Resort Management Company this year alone, coming on the heels of the Trump SoHo NY, the Trump Waikiki and the Vdara Hotel and Spa Las Vegas. The move sets a new milestone for what most consider to be the class leader in the industry. Since January, Jet Luxury Resorts has entered 7 new markets worldwide.

Dramatically poised at the edge of the Pacific Ocean on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, The Terranea Luxury California Resort 102 acres are infused with the elegance of a classic Mediterranean estate, the casual energy of coastal Southern California, and countless ways to spend your days – all tied together with authentic, genuine hospitality and a deep respect for this irreplaceable oceanfront setting. The Terranea Luxury Resort, located just south of Los Angeles, CA includes guest rooms, suites, Bungalows, Casitas and Villas and a host of world-class amenities, including spectacular dining venues, a world-class spa, a stunning 9-hole golf course and family-friendly activities.

Terranea (terra-NAY-a) Resort is the crowning achievement of Los Angeles-based owner and developer, Lowe Enterprises and is managed by Jet Luxury Resorts. Terranea Resort's location in Palos Verdes introduces new generations to a part of Los Angeles that feels worlds away from the dynamic city, and to a beautiful and tranquil setting which is largely unknown.

As visitors round the final coastal bend before Terranea, they are met with a breathtaking sight: an oceanfront resort surrounded on three sides by the Pacific Ocean with Catalina Island across the channel. Embracing the rich Mediterranean heritage of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, Terranea Resort's architecture possesses the feel of a carefully tended coastal estate that has evolved naturally over time. A gracious, old-world ambiance permeates the grounds, from the resort lobby and outdoor gardens, to private terraces and inviting courtyards with outdoor fireplaces.

Poised on 102 acres, Terranea offers a 582-room resort, including a luxurious collection of residential bungalows, casitas and villas. The resort also features The Links at Terranea, an award-winning, 9-hole par 3 golf course, the spectacular Spa at Terranea, three ocean view pools and a collection of eight distinctive restaurants, bars, cafés and lounges. Guests often recognize the views from many vantage points, as the property has been the location of dozens of Hollywood films and televisions shows over the years.

About Cave 

Khori means cave ( Guffa ) and thus Shiv Khori denotes Shiva's cave. The cave is a real wonder to be seen which according

to the people is unending and believed to have led to Swami Amar Nath cave in Kashmir. As per assessment of local people, it measures nearly half a kilometer in length but Yatries are allowed to go only upto 130 meters. Rest part of the cave is still a mystery as no one could go further due to lack of oxygen.

It is believed that some Sadhus who dared to go ahead never returned. The cave is in the shape of Lord Shiva's Damroo i.e. wide at the two ends while very congested at the center. The width of the cave is so less at certain place that a person can barely crawl through whereas at places it over a hundred feet wide and quite high too.

There are many features, which can be observed in the cave; however, the best of them is the natural water dripping from the top to the Shivlingum. 

The opening of cave is a mammonth hall of nearly 20 feet wide and 22 feet hight. It is nearly 80 feet in

length. While entering into this mesmerizing hall one can see the natural depiction of gigantic snake like formation believe to be Sheshnag. Pigeons are also seen here like Amarnath cave. After crossing the narrow passage, yatry reaches in the main cave area where sanctum sanctorum is situated.

The open part of cave has a four feet high naturally formed Shiv-lingam at the heart of the Sanctum Sanctorum. Just above the shivlingam a cow like formation is visible believe to be Kamdhenu and can be identified by her udders. The natural water dripping from nipples of udders on

the Shivlingum symbolizes the eternity of the holy river Ganga. It is believed that milk used to ooze out during old days but turned into water in Kaliyuga. 

To the left of Shivlingam Maa Parwati is sitting whose image can be identified by impression of her

holy feet. Along the image of Maa Parwati, Gauri kund is also visible which is always full of holy water. Image of Kartikeya is also seen in left of Shivlingam. At nearly 2.5 feet above the Kartikeya , image of five headed Ganesha is clearly visible. To the right side of Shivlingam one can see Ramdarbar

having images of Lord Ram, Lakhshman, Sita and Hanuman. The whole cave is abounds with a number of other natural images which have been described as images of 33 crores hindu deities and their vahanaas. The cave roof is etched with snake like formations, the

water trickles through these in the cave. ' Three pronged lance ' ( Trishul ) ' Oum ' and ' Six Mouthed Sheshnaga ' ( Shkshthamukhi Sheshnag ) are seen on the roof of the cave.
The main part of cave roof has round cutting mark

signifying construction of cave by Sudarshan Chakra of Lord Vishnu. In the second half of the main chamber Mahakali & Maha Sarswati is present. The potsherd of Mahakali is always full of holy water, which devotees use to sprinkle on themselves. Little above from the Mahakali, Panch -

Pandava are present in natural rock form (pindies). Infront of the Mahakali on other wall of cave, natural rock image of Lord Shiva lieing down on floor is visible. A holy foot of Maa Kali is also visible on body of lord shiva. The whole environment inside the cave is so mesmerizing that a devotee feel himself

in abode of god's place and whole nature appears turned spiritual.
