La Roulotte is one of the most charming locations I have ever stayed at, with its incredibly generous and helpful staff and unique but very comfortable caravan-style rooms. The grounds are beautiful, with some small ponds and trails, and the location is nice--not too long of a walk out of town and very peaceful at night. The food at La... More

La Roulotte is a great place to stay and feel very much at home. Great service and great food in a natural environment. I have been staying in Mindo for many years and this location is perfect for me. It is tranquil, within walking distance to the river and the butterfly habitat. The staff is very friendly and provides good... More

We had a transport problem on our last day and Ignacio, one of the 3 owners, could not have been more helpful, anticipating the outcome and offering us a solution. He also supplied delicious sandwiches outside normal restaurant hours and made sure everything worked out well. All the food was terrific. From their website I had anticipated some difficulty, being... More

Although we didn't stay here, we were recommended to eat at the restaurant by others who had stayed at La Roulotte. We were the only customers in the large dining hall and bar and were most impressed with the service offered by the manager/chef, Libardo Mora. The food was excellent (I had tliapia meuniere) and wine was OK. (Plenty of... More

I really can't say enough about this place. The rooms are cute, the food is amazing, and the grounds are like a tropical paradise. There are birds everywhere. Blooming plants. Frogs in concert at night. The dining pavilion is an amazing raised open structure that gives views right into the foliage. There is also a pond and feeding stations. The... More

My husband and I stayed here for a weekend, along with our 14 month old and 3 year old and has the most amazing time. This is a true gem, tucked away from all the hectic activities of Mindo, but close enough for you to partake as you please. The service is just wonderful, this is a family owned hotel... More

La Roulotte is a true gem! We stayed there in January 2013 for three nights while we checked out the sights and did some hiking and (inexperienced) birdwatching. Frankly, we could have amused ourselves the entire time on the property, watching zillions of luminescent hummingbirds battle for dominance while snacking on freshly made whole wheat bread from the wood oven....

This place is tucked in the jungle. The little caravans are so cute yet comfy, they are perfect. There is plenty of hot water with proper water pressure. The staff is very friendly, they go all out of their way to meet your needs. The place seems to be very eco-friendly, we were told that it was built by a... More

Food amazing, great views with many many kolibris even in the dinner room, close walk to the town (which is nice as well) and good starting point to walk to the waterfalls through the jungle. The...

My wife and I tried La Roulotte for a get away from the noise of Quito. It was amazingly relaxing. The rooms are cozy little gypsy cars, which are very clean, comfortable, and open. Ignacio was very welcoming, and spent a lot of time telling us about with birds flying around the beautiful open dining room. The food was amazing... More
