Summary: Gorgeous property with very responsive property manager made for an excellent first visit to Quito for my group of 7! Staff arranged airport transfer and breakfasts which were very helpful. Extra perk to have filtered and bottled water readily available.

Summary: The purpose of our Quito/Galapagos getaway was to gather 16 of our multigenerational family to enjoy Quito for a few days before all of us headed on to the Galapagos. From start to finish our experience at the Villa was sensational. Andres, the owner, was responsive, accommodating and creative. Not only did he make an exception to allow 16 guests by delivering two additional beds but also: - made arrangements to have all of us picked up at the Quito airport involving two separate flights 8 hours apart - made arrangements for two private dinners for 16 at the Villa featuring gourmet Ecuadorian food and beverages - made arrangements for three breakfasts including getaway day leaving at 4AM - connected us with a professional guide of Colonial Quito which happened to coincide with festive Palm Sunday celebrations - made arrangements for transportation for all 16 of us from the Villa to the Quito airport on getaway day Fernando, our transportation captain, Maria, our house manager and chef along with Carmen were hard working, cheerful and attentive. Andres had done an incredible job restoring this classic Villa with attention to high end detail that did not go unnoticed. The Villa is expansive and where all family members had space to either engage or find solitude. I infrequently write reviews, however, our stay was so exceptional that I wanted to share our experience. Cheers. - Michael

Summary: We had high expectations based on the previous reviews of this property but we were blown away with this perfect house. It is huge and very well appointed. Carmen the housekeeper was delightful and the host/owner answered every question quickly. He even steered us to an amazing day trip guide via someone he knows who guides in Quito. Ivan Lopez ( edivanly@hotmail.com) organized three day long excursions for us to Otavalo, Mindo Cloud Forest, and Quilotoa Lake, and we fell in love with his knowledge and enthusiasm for Ecuador. This is an exquisite property.

Summary: This place is like magic. The home is astonishing, location is perfect. The housekeepers are so generous and lovely. They had breakfast for us every day, got groceries, handled transportation, cooked for us and for our friends who weren’t even staying there. They were so nice. The communication with the manager leading up to the trip was great. Our trip to Quito was a thousand times better because we stayed here.

Summary: We travelled as a multigenerational family of 10 and this property exceeded our expectations in every way. Andres was super helpful in making reservations, giving advice on sightseeing, and arranging for 3 airport pickups at various, inconvenient times. The house was perfect for our large group, and we enjoyed the large outdoor gathering area. The architecture, art and artifacts deserve their own guide book. The location in Old Town worked well for our different groups exploring at different times. Most remarkable was the staff. Delicious meals, snacks when we needed them, a surprise birthday celebration, and patience and kindness toward our 4 young kids. Thank you for a wonderful introduction to Ecuador!
