This is paradise for birders and nature lovers! Angel, Rodrigo and the rest of the guides at this retreat are just FANTASTIC! We saw so many birds-- antpittas, cock of the rock, you name it. We're a family of four and had rooms next to each other which worked out well. This is such a peaceful, quite and beautiful place. You feel like you're at the end of the world in a very good way. You can relax and completely disconnect from all the cares of the world here.

This family run resort caters mostly to day trippers but we stayed there for 2 nights. The staff was so sweet and though we came without a guide, they took us to all the birding sites along with the groups that come just for the morning. The lodge is away from the dining area but that was not an issue because we were driven back and forth by different family members. Rooms are small but comfortable. Food was good. There was hot water and wifi at the lodge. Bird feeders everywhere to keep you busy with the camera.

It was a very lovely place for birdwatching and enjoy the nature of the huge andien cloud foresst. The "birdwhipsperers" are very sympathic and professional. We loved to stay there one night and two days. And we've got very fresh and tasty traditional food of ecuador even for vegeterians, which is really hard to find in Ecuador. I would say it was the best dishes we've had so far in our two months in Quito. It was an unforgetable trip. Thanks for all and hope we can visit you another time again 🙂
