My husband and I stayed at Casa Mojanda in March of 2012 for 3 nights. We had a room with a beautiful view of the surrounding green mountains and valley, and the room had a fireplace that kept us toasty at night. The rooms are very comfortable and nicely decorated, but are simple- so don't go here expecting a Marriott... More

The staff was wonderful to us. They heated up the soaking tub before we sat out there after dinner. What an amazing spot to watch the stars. The food was great. Sadly, the hiking didn't happen as the rain turned the trails into mudbogs. A totally relaxing place to spend a rainy couple of days. The room was beautiful, the... More

We stayed at Casa Mojanda in late Feb. 2012 and didn't want to leave. First, they sent a car to pick us up from our hotel in Quito, which arrived exactly when they said it would. Upon arrival, we were taken to our room which was actually it's own little casita, right next to the amazing library. The room was... More

This truly is a wonderful intimate resort experience. The staff are very friendly and are all service naturals. Meeting and getting to know Betty and her friend Steve was both inspirational and fascinating as one soon gets the impression of the passion and hard work Betty and her staff have dedicated to the resorts development and the resulting superior guest...

Casa Mojanda was our first stop on a 10 day trip through Equador. It remained our favorite place and quickly realized we did not plan enough time in the area and Casa Mojanda. The food was amazing as well as the staff and hosts very enjoyable and helpful. We are already planning our next trip Back to the region. More

My daughter and I recently spent a week at Casa Mojanda, enjoying oh so many aspects of such a special place! The physical plant was beautiful, comfortable and accessible with a beautiful and well used organic vegetable garden, Japanese hot tub which was delightful after a full days activity, kissing llamas, horses, a chosa (traditional house), warm and cozy and...

I booked to stay 2 nights at Casa Mojanda but soon extended to 4 after a warm welcome from hosts Betti & Steve over a delicious lunch when it become obvious there was so much to do in this beautiful area. The cosy, authentic rooms, hot tub, library, impressive vege garden and friendly staff make CM so enjoyable. Trips/walks to... More

The hospitality from Betti, Steve and Daniel was unique in all our holiday experiences - it felt almost therapeutic in the way we were made to feel so welcome and accepted. The exquisite attention to detail in the main restaurant/dining hall, the delicious food, the log fire in our bedroom, the llamas, the walk to the waterfall in glorious mountainous... More

This place deserves a mention for 3 reasons: 1) Lovely rooms full of character, 2) Amazing views, and 3) Even more amazing food. The location is spectacular, perched on a steep hillside above Otavalo. The rooms are simple with a very authentic feel, though mine was very cold the first night, despite the little electric heater. It warmed up nicely... More

The setting on a hillside high above Otavalo between snow capped volcanoes is beautiful and gracefully natural in the landscape, the cabins and rooms feel antique and authentically "hacienda" with corner kiva fireplaces and windows placed as art frames around the views; a dining hall with soaring beamed ceiling and warm fireplace for enjoying some of the best food we...
