Can't say enough about this Lodge
Reviewed By tonytD9568SZI am not in the habit bubbling over with incredible reviews for hotels or restaurants but Las Terrazas de Dana Boutique Lodge is worth the effort. David (one of the owners) has created an amazing place . Just outside of Mindo ($2 taxi ride) it offers views of surrounding mountains, walking distance to waterfall hikes using the Tarabita cable car) 15-20 min walk into Mindo. The staff offers incredible service (even cleaned up our hiking boots after a muddy hike). David is a wealth of information about Mindo, Ecuador and the Galapagos (Dana Tours). He provided a really good driver with a comfortable SUV at a reasonable rate for airport pick up as well as hooking us up with Julia -one of the best bird guides in the greater area. I would rate the food provided as good ( he is in the middle of building a new restaurant next to the pool. The rooms (could be all ) have a great view of the mountains. They're spotless and roomy-beds are very comfortable. Can you tell we really liked this place?!

Attentive Staff - Lovely Location - Great Food!
Reviewed By Lina CWe arrived in Mindo from the mountains of Ecuador - and were instantly impressed by the beauty and diversity of the region’s cloud forest. Our 4 nights at Mindo Coffee Lodge & Spa were perfect! Our room was well appointed and in great condition. From our outdoor patio - we heard the rushing Mindo River while enjoying local birds and the rolling mist over the mountains. The staff arranged both a knowledgeable Guide for a birding adventure as well as a delicious and delightful cooking lesson - at the Hosteria. Overall we totally enjoyed our stay - even as the weather was not so great!

A REAL TREAT!!!
Reviewed By 907cleapMy daughter and I stayed with Fernando at Casa de Vista Alta and it was the cherry on top of our wonderful trip to Ecuador! Sitting on their terrace felt like being in a green velvet jewel box surrounded by colorful cloud forest birds! We were greeted by Toucans, hummingbirds and very friendly staff! Both our fish dinners were memorable, (arguable the best we had in a month in Ecuador) and full breakfasts, with fresh scones to top it all, were outstanding too. Nothing was too much for Fernando and his always smiling staff, from checking bus timetables, to arranging transfers to the airport. It was wonderful having a host and owner who speaks such perfect English and is so engaging. He even took us on a birding hike in the forest, which was a real treat. A birders paradise!!! The room was perfect, with super comfy beds and pillows, and a great hot shower too. We loved all the spoils, the chats and the genersl general atmosphere. Treat yourselves to a stay at Casa de Vista Alta

Close to everything, plenty of birds, great people!
Reviewed By Colibri_GrandeMindo is well-known to birders and is indeed a great place to visit cloud forests and small reserves with tons of tanagers and hummingbirds etc. In addition to birders, Mindo also attracts rafters and other tourists. There are plenty of places to stay in town, but that might not be for everyone, and for those people,there's Sachatamia. It;s not "just for birders", but it is "great for birders." Sachatamia is maybe ten-fifteen minutes outside of Mindo center, and is set on a gorgeous property consisting of cloud forests and areas undergoing reforestation, adjoining a large protected forest. It consists of a main building for dining, reception, and comfortable seating for groups to have drinks or coffee etc. In the main building there are also rooms upstairs, in addition to detached cabins further into the property. When we arrived it was pouring rain and the staff very considerately offered us a room in the main building to avoid the torrent. We took a look at the rooms, which were nice, but decided to keep our cabin, mainly becasue the steps going up to the rooms are a bit steep. Maybe we're overly cautious, but we always think of what would happen if one of us got hurt, and that would be No More Trip. So despite the rain, we chose to stay in our cabin suite. The cabins are actually divided into two separate suites, so technically we had a half a cabin, but it is still roomy enough for our stuff and us. There's nothing fancy but it's cozy and clean and everything works. In addition to a wonderful early AM bird blind, there are numerous hummingbird feeders on the property, that in turn attract tons of hummingbirds. Nothing too unusual for Mindo, but it's a gorgeous setting and the staff were nice enough to set us up with a table so my wife and I - and our guide/friend Nelson - could have lunch and drinks with the birds. We loved it! And in fact, the staff there are what made Sachatamia not just a nice place to stay; they made it a wonderful place to stay! It's always the case: Service (or lack thereof) always makes the difference between properties, at any price point. Sachatamia is not a luxury property, but it is a beautiful property, with good dining, great location, and a wonderful group of people there to make your visit to Mindo unforgettable. We loved our time at Sachatamia, and would happily revisit it in the future. Thank you everyone!
10. La Bicok EcoLodge

La Bicok Ecolodge enjoys a prime location, because we are just 400 meters from the village center without its pollution. The campground offers peace and tranquility while being close to the village. The advantage of Labicok by its tranquility, is the fact that calm coincides with birds, butterflies and insects of all kinds. The Bicok wants to be a place of calm and relaxation for a pleasant time, time for a short stay in Mindo or more. Achieving our Cabañas is entirely of wood, because here the trend changes everything for concrete, something that was impossible for us at this location as preserved natural and what the village of Mindo. The atmosphere of our Cabañas litters on a compact and user-friendly set around a small central patio to promote exchange between people. La Bicok Ecolodge, is a place of relaxation and essential rest to recover your energy during your stay. That is why we want you to be fully aware that no noise or parties are allowed here during your stay. This is a
Cute and Quiet
Reviewed By LauraTravelWriterWe had a great stay at this lovely little eco-lodge. Our room was comfy, tastefully decorated, and had its own private terrace. The bar-restaurant area is well-designed and welcoming. We enjoyed a delicious and plentiful complimentary breakfast, were able to order some top-notch wine (a good glass of wine is not that easy to find in Mindo) and Sébastian, the owner, was very kind and flexible with our needs.
