Palanda Canton : locations de vacances

We feel eternally grateful to have been able to spend a month in such a beautiful, peaceful spot. The casita is as pictured with everything you need for an extended stay. Our main goal in traveling to Ecuador this time was to find somewhere peaceful and the river, birds, and trees surrounding casita colibrí provided everything we could hope for. Kim Ho was a wonderful host: easy to communicate with and incredibly friendly, helpful, and positive. We loved the walk to town and found getting taxis back part way if needed very easy. We also were amazed at the hikes we could do right out the gate- there is so much to see in every direction! I will note that we had some troubles with both mold and mildew. This is not surprising given that we were traveling during the rainy season and likely not a fault of the casita, but it was a constant effort to keep our clothes/items mold-free. Kim Ho recommended using vinegar to clean and that was very helpful but I would consider this while packing.

I felt so very blessed to have spent one month in paradise here! Phil and Suzannah are the quintessential hosts, the most lovely, kind, helpful folks you’ll ever meet! The care they have infused into their property and living forest is palpable in the beauty found in every corner. The apartment itself is exceptionally comfortable, pristine, and beautifully designed, with so many artistic touches. For those that are interested in regenerative farming, you will be captivated! Even if you don’t have a particular interest in this topic, the abundance of fruit & vegetables available to harvest is such a wonderful treat! I was bothered by the mosquitoes, however. Despite Phil’s multiple attempts to help, they sometimes even bit me in the apartment. Additionally, those that are sensitive to noise should know that you can hear quite a bit from the floor above. When this was brought to the host’s attention, however, the noise level decreased. Overall, my stay was magical!! ✨✨🙏

Un extraordinario lugar, con mucha paz y tranquilidad, espacio amplio y cómodo, tiene todas las comodidades para pasar un tiempo de calidad con familiares y amigos. Súper recomendado!!!

Asha and David are super sweet. They waited for us at the bus station even though we were one hour late! They wanted to show us the places in Vilcabamba and they took us fruit shopping. They really care and make sure you are feeling great at their place! We recommend their accomodation.

We had a very relaxing stay here. The house is well supplied with everything you need and comfortable. This is a great place for kids as there is the pool and trampoline. Travis and his family were very friendly and attentive.

Awesome host. Very fast responses and super accommodating. Made the reservation and within 15 mins was checked in and in our room. 10/10

My husband and I stayed for 3 night. Hot shower, comfortable bed, good WiFi, a well-stocked kitchen, roomy spaces, good lighting, great layout with light-filled rooms and a fantastic view from the kitchen and living room. It is a 10 to 15 minute walk to downtown Vilcabamba. Taxis all know the Alpha House. We would definitely stay there again on our next visit to Vilcabamba.

Un lugar increíble para conectarme con la naturaleza y el silencio de las montañas con el canto de los pájaros. Este complejo de cuatro cabañas, está ubicado a 15' del centro de Vilcabamba subiendo por las montañas y por tramos a veces difíciles de subir si no tienes camioneta, en mi caso viaje con un auto pequeño pero pudimos llegar igual. Luego las veces que tuvimos que ir al pueblo o algún lugar llamamos a los taxis asignados, por lo general camionetas 4x4. Vale la pena porque al llegar no quieres volver a bajar de lo lindo que es el lugar. La cabaña tiene todas las comodidades (más de lo esperado) cocina súper completa. Nos hospedamos tres noches y siempre cenando a la luz de la luna bajo las estrellas en el quincho espectacular con una zona de parrilla más que amplia y calida. La casa es tan completa que podria quedarme unos meses. Las camas de dos plazas van bien pero podrían ser más amplias. La ducha caliente va bien con buena presión pero para ducha corta. Excelente estadía

siempre regresaré a este alojamiento, muy buena zona, tranquila y acogedora, cerca del centro de Vilcabamba
