Tucked along the shoreline,  a haven for curious minds, a place to stay, gather, & recharge

Modern Utopian Society
of Adventurers


While you’re here, keep your eyes open—some of the best things aren’t marked. Hidden corners, off-menu moments, and low-key magic reveal themselves only when you slow down. It’s a treasure hunt of the best kind: no map, no spoilers, and no repeats. You’ve just got to be here to find it.

This isn’t just a stay—it’s an invitation to be. Tucked into 177 acres of raw Pacific coastline in Guerrero, Mexico, this boutique refuge was designed to slow time and stir the senses. Hospitality here isn’t a service—it’s a feeling. Every space, from sun-drenched suites to shadowed garden paths, is crafted for presence. For peace. For poetry. Conceived by designer Andrés Saavedra and entrepreneur Tara Medina, this place is the heartbeat of MUSA—a setting where design and wildness hold hands. You don’t just check in; you land, settle, root. Meals stretch long into the night under a canopy of stars. Strangers become friends over mezcal and morning surf. The architecture listens to the land, and the land gives back in whispers.This is not a resort. It’s a rhythm. A retreat into meaning. Whether you're staying for a night or a season, this is a living, breathing reminder that beauty belongs in the everyday—and that home is a feeling, not a place.

MUSA’s Artist-in-Residence program invites creatives to live, work, and explore in rhythm with the land. Whether sculpting, writing, or building with what’s around them, each artist is given space to experiment, reflect, and contribute to the evolving cultural landscape of MUSA. The result: work that’s rooted, present, and shaped by place.

Past residents have created site-specific sculptures, shaped by the land, light, and the quiet in between. Each piece is a response to place, a reflection of process, and a reminder that creation here is ongoing.
