Most days are incredibly beautiful and the island tends to escape many storms.
The aptly named Casa de Musica was built and still owned by music lovers.
Once settled in it's hard to leave.
Sunbath in the shallow end platform.
The heated, salt water lap pool is great for exercising

About this property

Newly Remodeled 2 bedroom ocean view house, indoor/outdoor living & private pool

With recent construction, a 2nd floor bedroom, bathroom and large ocean viewing terrace was added to make Casa de Musica a 2 bedroom villa.

Once again the owners have completely transformed Casa de Musica and as renters have come to expect, they will find a romantic, unique, charming and private house that now caters to two couples or a family of four. Casa de Musica is located on the south end of the island with incredible ocean views. High-end furnishings with a boho chic feel that offers you the chance to fully kick back and relax island style. The air conditioned downstairs living room provides open seating for four with an oversized sofa, two comfy chairs, coffee table and wardrobe. A large flatscreen TV with DVD player and Apple TV and other streaming capabilities are available in both bedrooms for your entertainment, along with high speed internet and wifi should you need to connect with the outside world. The air conditioned downstairs bedroom has a king sized bed with 800 thread count sheets, plenty of pillows and a comforter.

The downstairs bathroom has marble throughout, a double vanity and an indoor shower. Floor to ceiling glass windows provide a view of the private garden. A sliding door opens out to the garden and a tiled walkway leads to a private, outdoor shower surrounded by the lush plants and flowers.

From the front patio an outdoor stairway leads up to the large, covered terrace. This is designed to allow access for all guests to enjoy the terrace. The views of the ocean and the cool breezes from here are quite amazing although either bedroom also have a view of the ocean.

A sliding glass door opens to the spacious upstairs, air conditioned, second bedroom with lots of windows and vaulted ceiling. Again you will find a king sized bed with 800 thread count sheets, plenty of pillows and a comforter.

The upstairs bathroom is beautifully tiled and offers separate sinks for each guest with a view of the ocean while showering. Windows and skylights provide plenty of natural lighting.

The fully equipped kitchen, under the beautiful, grand, semi-enclosed palapa has sliding glass doors that open to allow the gentle Caribbean breezes through. The other side of the palapa is open to a private garden patio and separate laundry room. The kitchen bar has stool seating for six plus two fun swing chairs. The marble dining table with seating for four is a great place to enjoy engaging conversation while dining or playing games. Two over sized comfy chairs make the palapa the perfect hang.

Swim laps in the 58' x 7' heated, salt water pool or take it easy as you sunbathe and sip on a cocktail in the 11' x 11' shallow end platform. Catch the stunning sunrises or watch the shooting stars and listen to the crashing waves from the patio and pool deck.

With a name like Casa de Musica, of course you will have indoor and outdoor music streaming throughout with a Sonos system that you can control with an app on your phone.

An alfresco powder room with a second outdoor shower sits in the far corner of the palapa, and is easily accessible from the pool.

Feeling too relaxed? Stroll the Mayan Ruins looking out to sea at the southern most point of the island. This is a popular attraction with a restaurant and just a few minutes walk. The Garrafon Natural Reef Park is also just a few minutes walk and offers a range of recreational water activities.

A fun way to venture out and explore all this amazing island has to offer is to rent a golf cart or scooter or just take one of the many little red taxis running about the island. Enjoy the award winning beaches of Playa Norte with its cosmopolitan beach bars, restaurants and stretches of soft white sand and turquoise water. Hidalgo Street is a buzzing hive of activity with tourists shops, bars and restaurants so numerous that you'll never eat at the same place twice.

Complete concierge services and dining in can be provided to you by our house manager. If you've read any of the more recent reviews, she has taken the hearts of our guests.

**Please consider tipping the staff generously on your departure as it is customary in Mexico!

Family Trip
Our stay was great. Sofia and rest of staff was great to work with. Sofia was very attentive to our needs and quick to resolve a few hiccups we ran into. Overall space very comfortable. A few thing I feel would be benificial to a persons stay would be providing a few luggage racks in the bedrooms to place luggage on, a full length mirror in lower level bedroom. Also haveing a few beach chairs and an umbrella and cooler to bring with for beach days. We would Definitely stay at Casa de Musica for future travel.

Welcome to heaven
From the beautiful pool, to the perfect bedroom, to the fabulous kitchen, to the most amazing house manager and people she has connected us to, there has not been a single thing that hasn't been perfect for our stay here. House manager Sofia made sure we had dinner reservations, a golf cart, tacos and massage therapists who met our every need, AND she and her father prepared a delicious dinner for us. The house itself meets every need for a perfect stay, from comfortable beds to laundry facilities to gorgeous landscaping and plenty of games. We cannot wait to come back.

Isla getaway
This is a unique property that is described well by the site, indoor outdoor might not be for everybody but we found it very tastefully done and a refreshing approach to staying on the southern end of the island. The services provided and the contact with management was topnotch.

Paradise on Isla Mujeres!
Casa de Musica is a special place. The house is beautiful and clean. We really enjoyed the south side of island. The pool is heated. And Sofia is a gem. She arranged our transportation, reserved beach beds several days and her and her father cooked us a spectacular meal. We would definitely come back!

November Getaway
This is our second stay at Casa De Musica in 6 months. That's how much we love the house! Sofia elevates the experience with her local expertise, topnotch service and charm. Don't miss the chance to have her create a culinary masterpiece in the kitchen. She and her dad provided a delightful and delicious dinner prepared in front of us. She is a trained chef with impeccable credentials, and he is a wealth of historical information delivered with his witty style. Definitely a highlight of our week!

Best VRBO experience ever
My husband, niece, and I stayed at this beautiful property for 3 nights. We were blown away by not only the gorgeous home and views, but the above and beyond service from the house manager, Sofia. She helped arranged a golf cart and a couples massage for my husband and I )which was probably the best massage I’ve had), and she even was able to check us in a little early. The house was clean, the pool was the perfect temperature, and we loved staying on the south side of the island away from all the big crowds. If we return to Isla Mujeres, I know where we’d want to stay- at Casa Musica!

Marvelous Stay at Casa de Musica
Sofia is fantastic and made our trip seamless. Thank you for hosting our family and being so responsive and helpful. We had a wonderful time! The pool was much larger than we anticipated via the photos, and provided fantastic views. We especially enjoyed swimming at night! The bedroom upstairs provided amazing views of the sunrise each morning! We also really loved the location of the home - and Sofia arranging golf carts for our use. Lastly, the outdoor showers combined with the gardens were magical.We highly recommend staying here - you won’t be disappointed! And an honorable mention for the filtered water!

musica magica
Our stay at Casa Musica was fantastic and we are already discussing how we quickly we can return. The home is better than advertised as it is hard to point out how comfortable you are as soon as you arrive. The pool is private and we especially enjoyed watching the tourists pass. The home is very comfortable and the Sonos music system is a great touch. The outdoor shower is a special treat and the outdoor palapa kitchen and living area gives that island vibe that you find in very few homes. We can't say enough good things about the home and location. Being at the quiet end of the island is really nice but it was an easy golf cart drive to the playa norte area. A special thanks to Sofia and the staff for taking such good care of us and seeing to all our needs. We are looking forward to returning to Casa Musica.

It is everything the VRBO listing stated and then some. It did not disappoint! The property manager Sofia and her team were beyond exceptional. She made all the arrangements for us to get from the airport to the island and to Casa de Musica without any issues. The home is beautiful, as are the grounds and pool area. Our time there was so special and we enjoyed every single moment to the fullest. We will be back in 2025 to enjoy your home and the island once again. Thank you so much to Jo and Chuck for making your Casa de Musica available to us. Tim and Cheryl

About the host

Hosted by Chuck and Jo Ainlay

Host profile image
Chuck's profession in the music business led him to London where he met his wife Jo at a famous recording studio. They met through their love of music and live in Nashville TN.

As seasoned travelers we are always up for an adventure of discovery. On one of our many travels we discovered Isla Mujeres and the aptly named Casa De Musica. It is our hope that you find this little gem of an island as enchanting as we do.

Why they chose this property

Isla Mujeres is the perfect getaway and we found ourselves traveling there frequently. The uniqueness of the island holds a special place in our hearts as we truly feel like we've gone to some far away place yet Cancun is so accessible. It was on a chance outing with friends that we stumbled across Casa de Musica and we knew it was perfect for us.

What makes this property unique

Being a single bedroom, private property with a pool makes Casa de Musica unique among the rentals on Isla Mujeres. 5 star ratings from all our guest prove that Casa de Musica is perfect getaway to celebrate your honey moon, anniversary or you if just want to have an intimate getaway. House management will pamper you with all your needs but leave you to your privacy once you are settled. The location on the south end of the island gets you away from the noise and commotion of the north yet it's only a gorgeous 10 or so minute drive up either side to the beaches, resturant, shops and bars of Playa Norte. Theres so much to see and do on Isla Mujeres that we'd be surprised to not see you back in the near future. Our house is your house and we are reachable should you require any special attention.
