Hostels in Vilcabamba

Karin Ecuador

We loved Rumi Wilco. The whole project is done with a lot of attention and care. You can sense the love that Alicia and Orlando have for their land and the project in the details. There is small letter signs with the names of the plants of the area, all the paths are well cleared from herbs and plants, there is cute designated bathing spots that connect the path with the river that goes along the whole terrain. In the room itself you will find a simple but very careful environment made of wood entirely. The wood is from local forests, it is all very precise. In the kitchen each cup has a hook to hang from. It has the precision of a camping gear, or the sensibility of a father that loves to build. Everything was very clean, there is hot water for the shower, there is hooks to scroll, there is a map to visit the reserve, there is recommendations on how to heal somethings with local herbs. There is also a small selection of things that are made by them. Locally grown, dried and grinded coffee. Some jams with fruits from their land. Around the cabins there is grass to allow for camping. This also allows for star gazing. The area has lots of butterflies. Is a perfect place to stay for a long time, to enjoy the cabin and the reserve. To mix both resting and active visits.

Loved it here. Great location just outside the main area of town surrounded by green. Also loved the dogs.
