Mindo Real

The family that run Mindo Real are exceptionally thoughtful and helpful. We liked them a lot. They provided lots of information on arrival & throughout the stay in person & via WhatsApp. The location was great for us. 10 minute walk into Mindo, but on the edge of the forest areas with the river at the end of the garden. Lovely & quiet with a decent sized swimming pool. Breakfasts were also very good. The beautifully landscaped gardens were full of interesting plants which attracted lots of birds.

This was an amazing hotel, owners upgraded us upon arrival. Breakfast was amazing, location was perfect close to town. Owner helped with all communications for local trips. Wish I could have stayed longer! Mindo is amazing!

Lovely property tucked away in a beautiful garden and forested area near the river, just a two minute drive from downtown Mindo. Great value for the price paid, nice breakfast included. The hosts are excellent communicators before, during and after your stay. Rooms are kept very clean, serviced daily, and are nicely appointed. The mattress on my bed wasn’t as comfortable as I had hoped it would be. The stairs to the upper floor rooms where we stayed are steep but doable. Would absolutely stay here again.

The staff was wonderful they helped book outings and even help us get a doctor because of daughter was sick and brought things to cabin to help us . The meals were delicious and we were in awe of the beautiful setting and how diligent care in the garden only helped this

A little piece of heaven in Mindo, Ecuador. The property is beautiful! It is easy to see and feel the love put into everything at Mindo Real. Maria greeted me, and told me about different things I could do on the property, the pools which were very inviting, a covered area with hammocks, trails, a beautiful walk to the river. The rooms are clean and lovely, big windows that when left open amplified the sounds of birds, frogs, bugs and? nothing else but nature. There was a big open patio outside my 2nd floor room where I could sit outside, relax, and enjoy the views. My first walk back from town, I realized how very special the grounds at Mindo Real are. The driveway is long with beautiful plants and flowers lining it. On that 1st walk back I saw Yellow Tanagers, hummingbirds, and even an Agouti. Breakfast was so good. Fresh fruit, eggs, something fried with cheese, bread, and marmalade that I shared with a Golden Bellied Flycatcher each morning. I can't forget the Loja coffee, hot and black. There were hummingbirds, butterflies, and other birds all around. Anything I needed help with was quickly addressed, an extra blanket, a taxi, all I had to do was ask. Maria even purchased time for my sim card when she went to town the morning after she spent an hour the night before trying, I paid her afterwards.There was a state of emergency with curfews when I was there. I never felt unsafe in Mindo or at Mindo Real Lodge, day or night. I am 66 and was traveling alone.

A little walk to city center.place is quite and clean, Internet is good.ans Maria at the one that took care of us in all we asked was superbe.

Very beautiful, directly connected to the forest. From our cabin we could hear the river and woke up to the sounds of birds. Good breakfast and nice staff.

The nature and the surroundings are beautiful. Great breakfast and helpful staff, they are so nice and welcoming. Just enjoy their beautiful garden with a cup of coffee in the morning. Super clean rooms with the best showers I've had in ecuador. You will get good nights of sleep because it's so quiet at night. There is so much to do around mindo real. My favorite was the feeding of the colibris. You can do it yourself while they eat out of your hand. And I loved the hiking trails of the yellow house. I liked it so much that I returned a week later to spend another 4 days in mindo real.
