Ecuador Vacation Rentals Comfortable Small Appartment 2 Rooms Within Charming House in Quito Colonial.
Fascinated by the magic of the 'Old Town' where authentic Ecuadorian traditions are still alive and can be experienced in its streets and places, we decided that this is where we want to live. After a year of extensive search we finally found this treasure. It took us three years to carefully renovate the property. Within the 15.000 sqft of the old historical villa with its gardens we created seven independent units cautious of not loosing the colonial charm but adding all the contemporary comforts. Art objects in the lush garden and cozy living spaces gives our villa a very special flair. A breeze from the Panecillo hill provides fresh mountain air and you sit outside, surrounded by flowers and enjoy the sunny Ecuadorian climate.
The appartment is part of a private condo, hidden behind an adobe wall from colonial times in the historical centre of Quito. A manor house dating back to 1900 and several adjoining buildings give home to 8 independent suites for vacation rentals. Surrounded by 800 square meters of lush gardens, our suites are the most peaceful and special place to live in the vibrating colonial town of Quito, a UNESCO cultural heritage site!
The buildings have been carefully renovated to conserve its cultural important character and the interior of the suites combines traditional building methods such as thick adobe walls and wood with contemporary elements.
All Suites are fully furnished, have modern bathrooms and kitchen facilities, cozy bedding and towels, an ecological wood burning stove and wireless internet access. Cleaning service twice a week is included.
All suites have a private terrace or porch with garden view and the tenants may use shared spaces such as sitting areas and a gazebo with hammocks and BBQ. The abundance of flowers and bushes attract humming- and songbirds and the light breeze from the close “Panecillo” hill make our suites a wonderful city option for nature lovers.

“Peaceful Oasis in Quito -- We will be back!” My adult son and I spent the first four days of a week-long trip to Ecuador here. It was a lovely, peaceful oasis in Old Town Quito. The owners were wonderful hosts, always happy to answer questions and make suggestions. Our suite was very clean, inviting, and cozy. The kitchen was well equipped, and the upstairs bedroom had a lovely view of Quito and the mountains. We had a lovely terrace outside to enjoy the gardens and hummingbirds. We could walk to La Ronda in about five minutes, and to other Old Town sites in 10-15 minutes...so convenient! The driver who met us at the airport was wonderful, and everything went very well during our stay. I hope to return soon (next time with my husband!).

We loved to live in the historic part of Quito. Wonderful garden for retreat. Excellent equipment of the house and lovely architecture in and out. Very friendly staff and most helpful owners with suggestions and recommendations. We can recommend the driver Marcelo who lives next door.

We really enjoyed our stay here. It is very nice and the property is beautiful. We stayed for a few days at the end of our Ecuador trip and this was a great way to end it. The property felt very safe as there is good security. The location is good if visiting Old Town Quito. The owners were very friendly and informative and helped us booked rides to and from the airport and a day excursion. We would highly recommend this place if visiting Quito.

What can I say? All the favourable reviews before ours are accurate. This place is a little oasis within the busy historic district of Quito. My children loved their garden and all the space for them to explore. The rooms were lovely suites with all the comforts of home. We especially enjoyed making our rooms cozy in the evening with their little wood burning fireplaces. The owners are welcoming, helpful and yet unobtrusive. We stayed here at the beginning of our three week trip in Ecuador and at the end. It was by far the best place we stayed in the country.
