Abuela (Grandmother) Mountain and Abuelo (Grandfather) Papelillo Ancestor Trees

Imagine yourself arriving at Casa Terza, a boutique guesthouse nestled on a stone mountain in Puerto Vallarta, where the landscape feels both grounding and deeply alive. Here, every step upward through the property echoes a climb along the side of the mountain, held by the steady, nurturing presence of abuela (grandmother) energy.

Imagine staying in a guesthouse where many Papelillo trees look over from several directions like wise guardians, carrying the spirit of abuelo (grandfather) energy and the memory of generations. In this way, Casa Terza is framed by a living connection to unconditional love, wisdom, continuity, healing, and supportive spirituality.

Many indigenous traditions around the world, including Mexico, honor gender expressions beyond the simple male / female binary. Casa Terza also reflects the welcoming spirit Puerto Vallarta is known for, a city celebrated for its hospitality and strong embrace of LGBTQ+ travelers.

Grounding Spaces, Natural Vibrant Setting

The guesthouse is furnished in part with Parota wood, a tree long rooted in Mexican tradition and valued for its healing associations. These elements give the space a sense of ancestry and warmth, inviting guests to feel held by the land itself.

Imagine unwinding in the main saltwater pool, where the cave-like covering and the mountain just beyond the wall create a naturally sheltered feeling. Many guests experience this kind of setting as especially grounding, almost as if the place itself is helping them settle into stillness.

From one of the dipping pools, soak in the vistas of a lush mountain and, on the other side, the bright ocean bay.

Imagine a place where mountains, trees, water, and wood come together to offer calm and renewal as well as vibrance. Casa Terza is that place: intimate, ancestral, and alive with feeling.
