Whether you’re taking a break from the hustle of park crowds and roller coasters, or simply enjoying a slower-paced day, Universal Terra Luna resort offers a variety of activities to fill your time. Part of what makes Terra Luna and Stella Nova Resorts a part of the Prime Value Resort category are the included amenities. Here’s a quick guide for all the things to do at Universal Terra Luna Resort for when you don’t have a park ticket!
Pool Time!
There’s no better way to spend a full resort day between visiting the busy Universal parks than to splash and play in the sun, or take a few day naps on a lounger.
Terra Luna features a zero-entry pool and hot tub, and as well as splash pad for little ones. The nearby Moonrise Bar & Grill makes it easy to enjoy poolside food and drinks for the whole family. Come nightfall, a scheduled movie plays poolside on a pop-up projection screen. Pool hours are 9AM to 10PM daily (as long as the sun is out and the temperature is above 50 degrees!).
There’s a sand-filled area on the pool deck which offers additional lounge chairs and umbrellas, along with some family games and activities; including a Ping Pong table, over-sized Jenga blocks and Connect 4 games, as well as shovels and pails for sand play.
Fitness Center
Trust me, after walking 15,000 steps at Epic Universe, the last thing you may be thinking about is working out. But it is important to maintain your theme park stamina and work those muscles, if you so choose. The Fitness Center is open from 5AM to 10PM daily, located just past the lobby elevator bay. From treadmills and ellipticals to stair masters and free weights, this fitness center offers views of the bright pool deck, and includes locker rooms equipped with full-sized showers.
Game & Rec Rooms
Go play! The Game Room is open from 8AM through 11PM, with two entrances, one from the pool area and the other being past the lobby elevators. To keep the theme going, interactive arcade games include Jurassic Park, Mario Kart Racing, and SpongeBob Squarepants VR, while some claw machines offer Mario Kart and Pokémon prizes!
A nearby Rec Room is a sort of flex space, offering indoor activities — especially for when Orlando’s weather doesn’t fair well for the aforementioned Pool Time. You can inquire about the Rec Room’s schedule during your stay at the Front Desk!
Bus Over to CityWalk
One of the perks of staying at any Universal resort hotel are the continuous complimentary shuttle buses. These take you over to CityWalk, which acts as the home-base for Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure, as well as an entire entertainment district including various eateries, snack stops, shops, mini golf courses, a movie theater, Universal’s Great Movie Escape rooms, nightclubs, and more! CityWalk does not require a park ticket, and offers plenty of family fun all day long.
The bus ride from Terra Luna Resort to Universal CityWalk is approximately 18-20 minutes.
Recharge In Your Room
When all else fails, rest and relax in your hotel room… besides, you’re on vacation!
If you have room in your luggage, bring a board game or deck of cards to play as a family or group in the room. (Might I suggest the Universal Monsters version of Horrified? We love to carry the Dark Universe theme.)
…Or Just Longingly Stare at Epic Universe from Afar
While you’re in your room, and if you’re lucky enough to have a theme park view, you can always take in the not-so far off vistas of Epic Universe, and count down the moments until you’re back exploring the brand new park.
