TierraLuna: The Most Magical Place in Puerto Vallarta
TierraLuna is a brand new open-air shopping and entertainment park in the heart of Garza Blanca Preserve in Puerto Vallarta. Guests of both Garza Blanca and Hotel Mousai will enjoy easy access with continuous trolley service to and from the resorts.
The moment you arrive at TierraLuna Gardens you will feel like you have stepped into a dream world. The zen-like space is situated in an ideal location where all visitors can embrace the natural beauty that surrounds it. TierraLuna is ideally situated on the mountainside at an elevated level which gives it the advantage of offering unobstructed views of Banderas Bay, the Pacific Ocean, and the lush rainforest.
This brand-new village is currently open to guests and locals daily from 3:00 pm to 10:30 pm (weather permitting). During this time, guests can enjoy a bite to eat at Luna Deli where We Proudly Serve Starbucks™ along with fresh sandwiches and pastries, or go shopping at one of the 8 fabulous boutiques, which will be opening later this summer. Visitors will be able to enjoy this naturally beautiful space sitting in the outdoor ´living rooms, which offer incredible views, and be soothed by the sound of the natural pools that are fed by two rivers. This dreamlike space also features a magnificent cultural forum designed for weddings and special events, as well as an outdoor deck for yoga classes and meditation.
When you arrive at TierraLuna, one of the first things that you will notice is a magical family carousel, which is not just any carousel. This one takes a traditional carousel and glams it up with elegant details. The predominantly white color scheme is adorned with gold accents, mirrors, and twinkling lights. The details that make it really stand out are the unique animals that make up this stunning carousel. Of course, it features horses, as you would expect to find on a traditional carousel, but what makes this one extra special is the addition of the majestic white elephant with gold tusks, a reindeer, a giraffe, a white goose with a long neck, a lion, and a jaguar. The most striking thing about this carousel is that as it spins around you will enjoy 360º views of the cerulean ocean and verdant jungle.
Buffet Dinner, Farmers Market, and Art Walk
Every Friday night between 7:00 pm to 10:30 pm (weather permitting), the magical space comes to life as never before and features a buffet dinner, Art Walk, and Farmers Market. The Farmers Market showcases the best of Mexico’s rich culture where you can browse and purchase quality products from local market vendors including typical Mexican handicrafts, blankets and embroidered pillows, handmade clothing, alebrijes, hand-blown glass ornaments, handcrafted jewelry, and much more.
Visitors can also enjoy an Art Walk where they will have the opportunity to meet local artists as they stroll along the esplanade to peruse the impressive paintings.
The highlight of the evening is, of course, al fresco dining overlooking the ocean sitting beneath the palm trees and twinkling lights with a selection of gourmet options from the BBQ buffet. The buffet includes a selection of salads, handmade tortillas, chorizo, arrachera (grilled skirt steak), carne al pastor (pork meat ¨pastor¨ style), grilled chicken, slow-cooked pork, roast beef, grilled vegetables, and, of course, decadent desserts and a fully-stocked bar.
The dinner also features live music and there is a stage set up opposite the buffet. The cost of the buffet dinner is included in the Gourmet Culinary All-Inclusive plan for guests of both Hotel Mousai and Garza Blanca Preserve. For Room Only guests, the cost of the buffet is $950 MXN pesos for adults and $475 MXN pesos for children. Reservations for the buffet dinner must be made in advance.
For members who prefer to dine at the resort restaurants and go to TierraLuna afterwards, entry to the park is free; only the buffet has an additional cost. For your convenience, you can purchase a selection of non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks from the bar and if you crave a sweet treat, next to the bar you will find a divine selection of desserts for purchase including churros, pastries, brownies, and custard tarts topped with fruit.
