Mindo has a lot of wonderful nature options. Feeding hummingbirds, the BEST butterfly gardens we have ever visited and we have been to many & really good bird watching - we used Sandra & Romelly at Bird Paradaisio (sp) & had alot of fun & Romelly drove us back safely to Quito but took us on an extra bird sighting trip on the way that was super - wonderful too! The trails to the waterfalls was a lot of fun & the falls are worth the trek although these out of shape older folks didn't make it to them all. The chocolate tour at Yumbos led by Amir was wonderful! We enjoyed both the tarabita & telerifico rides although the last was a bit scary, terrific views! Prices for everything was very reasonable, food may be a bit higher than rest of Ecuador but not too bad. Limited options though as most menus looked almost the same. One place we would definitely come back to. Only the food options were a little lacking. Everything else was fun & it was nice to be out of big cities.

Mindo has so many things to do.
Mindo has so many things to do. We took a ride on the cable car (Tabita) and then hiked to see the 5 waterfalls. We toured a butterfly house and took a coffee tour. The town is small so walking was the way to explore. We only needed a taxi to get to the hiking. Definitely take a truck taxi since the roads are rough and windy to get to the top. Our driver gave us his phone number to call him when were finished hiking. There are so many different restaurants to choose from and very good prices. We enjoyed our two night stay at the El Descanso where we saw so many tropical birds (especially hummingbirds) right off the back patio.

Mindo is a lovely little town, famous for chocolate, butterflies and waterfalls! Although there’s a lot of activities, you can get through most of them in 2 days, which makes it a great weekend travel destination.
Temperatures are usually mild due to it being in the clouds.

I've visited here twice, once in 2001 and the second time in 2023. I would say it has actually improved quite a lot in that time; the road into town is better, and the facilities in the area are much better. There are some much better restaurants and small cafes, and more "fun" activities available than there used to be. At the same time, the development hasn't been allowed to run rampant, so it still has the feel of a small town in the subtropics.
We had one of the suites that overlooked the river and it was absolutely magical. The room had everything you could want and all you could hear was the sound of the water. The breakfast was the best we had anywhere in Ecuador, very filling, different everyday and absolutely delicious. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful especially Enid and Xavier. There are lots of activities they can attange and both the birdwatching with Peter and the visit to the butterfly park nearby (25 min enjoyable walk) were well worth doing.
Staff was very helpful! Arranged a taxi at a great rate for pick-up from the quito airport and made organizing any activities in Mindo very smooth and straightforward. The space is very clean, spacious and beautiful. The beds are comfortable, didn’t have any issues with bugs or heat despite there being no AC. Hot water & great water pressure in the shower. It’s a very close walk to center of town but allows you to be fully submersed in nature. Gorgeous garden!
We spent our last two nights in Ecuador here. The location in the middle of cloud forest, just outside Mindo, was beautiful and stress-free. The lodges were well appointed and the beds long and comfortable. Although, there are lots of food options in Mindo itself, we ate at the lodge both evenings; the food was high quality and Ecuadorian, yum! All this would not be possible without the wonderful staff, especially Divina and Camilla.
excellent place to stay in Mindo, with hot water, good internet and safe parking spot for the car. all very clean and big comfortable beds. rooms have access to terrace. the hostel is located next to the river in the forest you wake up with the songs of the birds .The best coffee served for breakfast. Asem and his wife are the best hosts you could imagine. we felt immediately at home
Fantastic location overlooking the cloud forest. Our room had large floor to roof glass windows which was breathtaking. The entire staff was excellent and Washington - the chef + care taker was just great. We even did the tasting menu and Washington made all vegetarian Ecuadorian courses which was a treat
I would stay here again in a heartbeat…
Beautiful wood and brick building, comfortable bed and extremely clean. Gorgeous views and the hummingbirds are delightful! I could have watched them for hours. Ten minute taxi ride from Mindo town, but so much more pleasant to stay here. If you are vegetarian, I recommend the vegetarian ceviche, which was sort of a gazpacho with beans.
The dining area has an incredible view of the cloud forest. The hotel was very peaceful and extremely clean. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, and the owner allowed us to leave our bags even after we checked out. He took us on a bird watching hike and recommended some awesome activities. Highly recommend this place!
My favorite part about the stay was the patio area with the beautiful river view. At night we fell asleep soundly with the sound of the river. The employees were absolutely amazing, kind & helpful. The breakfast was out of this world. Everything was outstanding & we most definitely will be back during our next visit to Mindo!
The place is big and beautiful. Surrounded by nature. It is located in a peaceful area in Mindo. Perfect for relax and disconnect form everything, but at the same time near enough to Mindo downtown.
The hosts where friendly and quick to respond to any question or need.
The laundry room was a big plus.
Beautiful unique sustainable design, riverside location, delicious ala carte meals (recommend fajitas, sandwiches and trocha con marisceros), laundry service, kind staff, everything is clean as crystal, good matrasses, taxi service in front of the hotel.
I never sleep without earplugs, here I could.
This is one of the best hotel. The room is clean, spacious with free parking. The view is great. Marco the manager is the best manager of the hotels we have ever stayed. The breakfast was excellent. The birds are everywhere. David, the owner is very helpful. Highly recommended.
The hotel is located a little bit outside of Mindo center, but not far from it - the spot is simply beautiful. We felt more than comfortable in our Suite incl whirlpool on the balcony and enjoyed our stay to the utmost. Very good breakfast and food too. Highly recommended!
The hotel is new, modern and well equipped. Delicious breakfast with low cost. The staff provides 24 hours good services and very friendly. It has its own private parking and safe. It's the best hotel in Mindo that we have visited.
Very informative host - speak good english, nice green area around, clean room with hot shower. Tasty homemade breakfast. The host helped me with tour booking and different info about activities in Mindo. They have private parking.
The garden is a paradise - toucans, aracari, tanagers, many colibries, agoutis, etc. Must see when in Mindo. The owner was nice and very helpful in organizing a birdwatching trip for me. Gracias por todo!
The location of the lodge is stunning with hummingbirds and toucans just outside your window and a view point over the Rio Mindo. Everybody at the lodge works incredibly hard to make your stay perfect!
Spacious, comfortable, beautiful room. With the windows open, you're able to hear the river flowing and birds chirping, very peaceful! Easy walk to other activities in Mindo.
It is really beautiful. It is far from downtown Mindo and you with need a high car to get there because of four little rivers that you need to cross, but it is beautiful.
The area is super and invites to stay even longer. It is really quiet, always warm water and the staff was helpful. Everything is near as well. Perfect spot for Mindo.
We had a great stay at the Temple 1! It is a beautiful location and a well designed structure. We viewed several types of birds from the hotel including a toucan.
