THE DRIVE UP...
As soon as you get off Route 34 (the Costanera) 300 meters south of the BM super Mercado in front of Mystic Sushi onto the dirt road, Calle La Union, it's a 5km straight ahead until you reach your destination. Remember, La Calle Union is a decent road, but it's a mountain road surrounded by jungle. Take your time, drive slowly, and savor the journey.
PLEASE - make sure to take the NORTH entrance of La Calle Union in front of Mystic Sushi. It may be slightly longer, but it offers an easier drive without the need for 4WD. The road is a well-maintained gravel road, most guests (over half) comfortably use a 2x4 vehicle. However, if you're not confident driving in mountain terrain or prefer extra assurance, a 4x4 is recommended.
There is ample parking space in the driveway of the house.
