Big rooms, really clean and with ensuite. Nicely decorated with the owner's photos. A quiet place and good base to get out and go walking. Good breakfast. Nice staff.
Overview
The Birdwatcher´s House provides a comfortable, tranquil base for birdwatchers and travelers to explore Mindo´s famous natural beauty. Guests can recline in a hammock and watch hummingbirds feed in the lush garden, or else ease their sore muscles in the 6-person jacuzzi.
All prices include a satisfying breakfast of eggs, fruit, bread and coffee.
Conveniently located near the centre of Mindo, the House is the perfect location to enjoy the nearby waterfalls, hiking trails, zip-lines, nature reserves, the butterfly sanctuary and chocolate factory, as well as the region´s many famous birding locations. The House is recently renovated, and its spacious and bright rooms are kept immaculately clean. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms with 24hr hot water.
The owner, Vinicio Perez, is a fluent English speaker and a bird guide with 33 years experience. His vivid bird photos enliven the walls creating a homely, welcoming feel.
