Other Things to Note

Please note that we want all of our guests to enjoy their stay at Villa La Selva. This home is located in a private, gated community with mainly full-time residents and families. There is a very strict no-noise policy outside between 10 PM and 6 AM. This is not the house to host a party or event. This home is great for groups of adults and families who respect the neighbors and rules of the community. If you plan to bring a large group to have a party, large event, or make excessive noise, please reserve another property, as the noise will not be tolerated, and you will be asked to leave without a refund.
