“Everything has been perfect since the booking. Luz and Diana are the people who organize everything and they are the most kind and efficient. Getting to the house is very easy and it is perfectly located. About a 5-minute walk from the center, but outside the noise of the town. The house has everything you might need, it is very clean and everything is new and of good quality (super comfortable mattresses). They also put you in contact with a very good tourism agency. It is definitely worth it.”
“We are very happy to have had the luck of going to Luz’s house! I highly recommend it without any doubt.”

We loved our stay! The house is beautiful and comfortable. The house has everything you need available. The garden surrounding the house is beautiful. Luz was very attentive and able to answer all our questions. The location of the house is perfect, very easy to get to many restaurants and all the tourist companies. We had a wonderful stay and are looking forward to staying again.

Absolutely beautiful… the place was immaculate, interesting, fun, attractive, and super comfortable. The cabin itself was wonderful and the outdoor setting was even better if possible. The hostess was very helpful and responsive. We would stay again in a heartbeat. There was absolutely nothing wrong with this amazing accommodation, which covered everything needed to have an incredible experience.

Magnificent house with a splendid garden. If we return to Mindo, we will definitely choose this house again. The children loved the little river that ran through the garden. Diana and Luz were very available to help us with our sick child. Thanks to her. We felt right at home.

This was the perfect vacation rental for exploring Mindo! The location is private, yet very walkable, and the landscaping is AMAZING. The house had everything we needed, and the stocked fridge was helpful due to our late arrival. Although we went to the butterfly and hummingbird places in town, we didn’t have to leave the backyard because they were quite happy enjoying all the beautiful flowers in the yard.
Luz was a super host and very helpful. Our late night arrival was not a problem, nor was our early morning departure. A lot of thought went into the amenities and everything was very clean and comfortable.
We will definitely be back!

We LOVED our stay at Luz’s beautiful house in Mindo, we wish we could have stayed for weeks. Beautiful garden, comfortable beds, clean bathroom and spotless house, and an excellent location just a couple of minutes walk from town, but still quiet and peaceful. Luz is a friendly and helpful hostess, and responded very well to our needs. One of the best Airbnb accommodations we have stayed in Ecuador!

Incredible place in Mindo. Quiet, comfortable, and great for bird watching. A truly beautiful place. It’s close to the city, but far enough away to have a peaceful stay. Our host and co-host were very accommodating, responsive, and very pleasant. The children enjoyed the yard and played both outside and inside with numerous toys. The kitchen is well-equipped, there are plenty of towels, and comfortable beds with good bedding and extra blankets. We have a 1-year-old child and we didn’t have to worry about the stairs because of the gates they provided.
They provided a menu to a cafe that delivers to the house. The cafe is just around the corner if you want to eat out.
It’s worth staying an extra day just to relax and enjoy the scenery and the house. Definitely a place we would stay again.
