Consider:
- Casa de la Musa is surrounded by jungle plants and wildlife. While we make a concerted effort to keep the house clean and comfortable, it may not be the right place for you if you hate bugs, and other critters.
- Regarding privacy: there are 2 separate houses on this property that are visible by guests from the main house. From time to time you may see the property owner during your stay. If you would like interaction, information, or just need to borrow misc items, it's just a few steps away for your convenience. Otherwise, expect every effort to be made for complete privacy.
We hope you enjoy your time in Punta Uva as much as we do!
