  • SchwabCanada · 28 Feb 2026 8Very good

    Liked : Restful location. A rare opportunity to be in a rural location without blaring music from the neighbour's or without being woken by a chorus of dogs, or roosters. Andres arranged the taxi services for us and the rates were reasonable. A good place to relax after long term travel.

    Showers are lovely hot and good water power. Comfortable beds. Good WiFi.
    Andres the host is just lovely. super helpful and encourages you to make it your home.

  • AdrianaSpain · 20 Oct 2025 8Very good

    Liked : Beautiful place in the middle of the rainforest.
    A place for people to reconnect.
    Andres is a great host.

    Disliked : I wouldn't recommend the attic room if you are above 1.50cm, it will hurt your back after 2 days.

    Peaceful and relaxed

    Liked : Great stay, comfortable and peaceful, owner is very friendly and helps with booking taxi to the accommodation $4, it is also a walk of 35-45 mins to the town along a road near the jungle. Great place to relax and listen the wildlife around you

  • KrzysztofPoland · 28 Sept 2025 10Exceptional

    Liked : La Chonta is a truly charming place. Surrounded by nature, it offers peace and quiet, with nothing but the sound of birds all around. The location is perfect if you want to disconnect and enjoy the beauty of the forest. On top of that, the breakfast was absolutely delicious – a wonderful start to each day

    A beautiful and serene place to stay.

    Liked : A beautiful accommodation, the loveliest we’ve stayed in in Ecuador, and for a great price. Well equipped kitchen, quite social and very peaceful. The owner, Andres, was very helpful and accommodating and he had a very friendly dog too. The shower was also lovely and hot. Wish we could’ve stayed here longer!

    Disliked : It is a little out of the centre of Mindo, but you can either walk the 35-45 minute path through the jungle, or Andres will quickly and cheaply get you a trusted driver to take you the whole way for $4

    amazing

    Liked : this was the end of our trip in Ecuador, and it really made us not want to leave. must have been the nicest place we've ever been accommodated in. the owner is super nice (as is his dog(both of them)). we truly felt like home, and we hope to visit again, once we return to Ecuador.
