    I can’t say there was anything to dislike or be unhappy about.

    Stunning location in Mindo. Each room and terrace were very private. Comfortable rooms and clean! The staff are some of the friendliest I have ever experienced. We were greeted by name each day. Very personable and accommodating. I can highly recommend Las Terrazas de Dana for a special getaway.

    Nothing

    We arrived at this wonderful hotel on 19th April 2024. Because of my own stupidity of wearing unsuitable shoes I slipped on a bit of grass on the 20th April and broke my ankle. The staff could not have been more helpful. The hotel owner David, manager Marco, and all the team at Las Terrazas were magnificent in how caring and kind they were. They arranged trips to local viewing points that didn't involve any walking so I could still see and photograph the wonderful hummingbirds, toucans, tanagers and other beautiful birds and local wildlife. I was trying to raise the ankle and rest as much as possible, so the balcony of our King Suite Room was a perfect retreat and we saw and photographed so many beautiful birds from there as well, in the sun and the rain! All the rooms look out onto this wonderful environment with birds and stunning scenery all around. The way the hotel is landscaped is fantastic with so many beautiful plants attracting a plethora of butterflies and birds. The staff were very happy to bring food to our room to save me hobbling downstairs, provided ice for the ankle constantly and pillows to raise it at night. Everyone we met at Terrazas were kind and helpful. The food was excellent and the breakfasts plentiful, including local food with almost all being home made including a carrot and pineapple jam! We liked everything about this hotel - the food, service, the environment and most of all the staff and people who run the hotel.

    We stayed at Las Terrazas de Dana for 4 nights. It is a real oasis! Our room with the terrace was very nice. The garden is beautifully landscaped and you can watch hummingbirds and other beautiful birds from your own terrace. The breakfast is rich and delicious. David is very helpful and friendly. Marco and Freddy are also always concerned about the well-being of the guests. The whole staff is very friendly. We had also booked a bird tour through David. The tour with our guide Natalie was very good. We were able to see many birds. David also arranged cab transportation to the airport for us. The cab ride was pleasant and relaxing. We would definitely book this accommodation again and can only recommend it.

    The food was fantastic. You can get a traditional Ecuadorian breakfast with fresh juice. The hotel was set in the cloud forest with beautiful views of the mountains. We all went to the spa for various treatments and sat by the pool. All excursions are easy to get to by taxi.

    This is one of the best hotels we stayed ever. Marco is super kind, helpful and very passionate about this place and everyone that is coming there. If you go to Mindo you HAVE to stay there! The pool area is very nice, the food is delicious, it‘s even in walking distance to the city center and the cable car to do some great hikes. Marco will also support you planning your days.

    lovely oasis

    We really loved EVERYTHING at this place. If I wanted to be nitpicky, I would say that there was an area sort of behind the hotel that is semi-hidden, but still in view, that is filled w/ construction detritus and trash. It would be ideal if that area was more well hidden.

    This place is such a lovely and peaceful oasis. You can sit on your balcony and watch hundreds(maybe even thousands) of hummingbirds flitting about. You can also see many other birds, including toucans, right from your balcony. We went birding one morning w/ a guide in the cloud forest, and while it was a neat experience, we saw way more birds right from our balcony at the hotel. The food is also really good here, which I did not find to be the case in Ecuador in general. The owner and employees are lovely and helpful, and the two friendly resident dogs are an added treat.
