Holiday rentals with lake access in Metropolitan District of Quito

This was a great Airbnb. If I'm ever in the Quito area I would try to stay here again.

I cannot say enough positive things about this place! The tiny home is lovely-clean and well designed, the surroundings are astonishingly beautiful and so peaceful. All you hear are birds, which is just the way I like it. We cannot wait to come back someday and book a a longer visit. We could spend all day relaxing on the balcony watching toucans and tanagers! Walking the road and birding was equally enjoyable. The taxi drivers recommended to us were responsive and friendly. I felt badly asking them to drive all the way up to the house (it is about a half hour as others have said) but they didn't seem to mind and drove us both up and out several times. We also walked into town a few times and enjoyed the walk too! I used the hot tub once and it was lovely! But I recommend using the tub during the day as opposed to at night- if the light is on you'll spend a lot of your time rescuing moths if you bathe at night. But it is relaxing and feels very decadent to bathe outside with the birds!

We have stayed at Juan Diegos' cabin twice. The reseve is remote, beautiful and peaceful. Birds, frogs, horses and other wildlife makes you feel like you are part of the nature. One of the walking trails takes you to the river and a picturesque biopool that is literally located in the middle of a pasture and fed by rainwater. It is the most unique pool that we have ever seen. The dining area has a large terrace with a view of mountains and an elevated view over the river. This terrace is a perfect place for flexing and yoga or just having a romantic moment. The breakfast is delicious and healthy and the hosts are very responsive and friendly. The arcitecure and design of the cabin are unique and stylish. Everything is done with meticulos attention to detail. You can cook your own food if you wish, which we did for some meals. The kitchen has what is needed for most simple dishes. We also loved the jaccuzi which worked as promised. Great both with or without kids.

The hosts were very kind and responsive. The cabin was very nice and had all the amenities we needed for our long weekend.

Amazing place, close to Mindo’s downtown. Staff is very kind and the place is clean and comfy!

Our families stay in Mindo was wonderful! Luz and her family were very helpful with check-in and instructions even though our Spanish was limited. The place was cozy and very clean. We were within walking distance of town with great restaurants and shops. The gardens around the house were beautiful and they even have hummingbird feeders and a place where they put fruit for the birds. It was magical to watch the birds while drinking delicious Ecuadorian coffee. We would recommend this place to others!

We enjoyed our stay at Ushaloma. It was an incredibly sight! We planned to stay there a night and then go on an early hike but then cancelled the hike in order to enjoy the view. We highly recommend the place. We also recommend that you bring the food you want for the night and breakfast there because once you are there, you’re going to want to stay and enjoy the view and not go back down till the next day. Absolutely stunning house and view. Friendly people who showed us everything we needed to know. One helpful hint: Google maps will direct you through a muddy road that is impossible to get up. Make sure you are taking Via a Lagunas Mojanda because it is paved. We took this road up without a 4x4 and no problem. Steep but manageable.

The perfect place for a couple's weekend. The house is cozy, impeccable and very quiet. As a recommendation, if you have the option, go in a high vehicle: I arrived in a low car and although I could get there, the streets are irregular and you have to proceed carefully and slowly.
