Cabañas Tamiaju

This was our most memorable stay during our 2 months in Ecuador! Exceptional value for money. Outstanding staff and customer service! The views are beautiful and the cabins very comfortable, with hot showers and extra blankets for chilly nights. Every cabin has a nice balcony with hammock chairs and a fold-down table. They have a great viewing platform for all sorts of hummingbirds, and a cool light-trap near a hide for watching birds eating bugs for breakfast. Wifi is excellent (we had to have a video call and it worked seamlessly). The FOOD! Excellent food. And the owners are so easygoing and friendly, they go out of their way to make you feel right at home, show you their favourite spots, and just make you - as the guests - their number one priority. They are also engaged in a reforestation project and you can plant a tree on their land for $3. Honestly this is such a great place, you are missing out if you skip it!!

Basically stumbled on these beautifully built, spotlessly clean and very comfortable cabanas. Nice private forest trails for wildlife with gardens and bird watching platforms on the property. It's clear they are making constant improvements (particularly focused on birding groups) and it will only get better with time. Toni and Eladio are fabulous, interesting, knowledgeable and accommodating hosts passionate about the nature and conservation of the region! The meals offered are fresh, delicious and beautifully prepared! Wish we could have stayed longer.
