Staff seemed friendly, nice space to chill out, shower had hot water.

Nice small hostel a bit outside of town, but with a great view from the balcony for birdwatching. It was very social and Mateo is a great host!

“I only stayed for 2 nights but would have been more than comfortable to stay for weeks- the host is lovely and the locat”

Very nice and homely, and the owner is very nice - great breakfast in the morning too!

“Anna”

The location and the service is excellent. Mateo is such a nice host and very easygoing guy. we enjoyed the stay very much and extended as it was amazing.

“Join the tribe”

We had an amazing experience staying at Inti Mindo. We met nice people who stayed at the hostel and Mateo (the owner) is really a great guy. He provided good recommendations not only about Mindo but for other places too.

Awesome small hostel run by Mateo. He is very helpful in giving ideas of what to do in Mindo. Only 2 rooms so not crazy busy even when full. Upstairs area where you can look out on the fruit feeders

“Nice and peaceful stay”

Mateo is a very good host, always making sure you're feeling good and dealing with any questions or interests one may have. He genually enjoys discussing with the guests and share his pride for his region. The hostal is just outside of town (10-15 min of a nice safe walk) so it's very peaceful. A good way to connect with Mindo, its surroundings and the spiritual culture of the area.

“Perfect place to relax.”

The hospitality was remarkable. The owner took his time to tell me about the birds that come to the backyard, showed me a picture book so I could search and learn about them and set up a feeding station (all after I said birds were my priority for visiting Mindo). He did have all kinds of information to share about other activities. Breakfast was fresh and tasty. Kitchen was well equiped.

“Excelente”

great host, afford amazing help in booking/ activities, young vibes we felt very comfortable and the distance from the center was not far

“Loads of toucans, fun, peace and quiet when you want!! A highlight in Ecuador :)”

Mateo was so hospitable, helpful, easy going and very knowledgable on the history of the area! The vibe of the hostel was nothing I’ve ever experience before making you feel apart of the family straight away. I saw over 12 toucans on the first day of my stay from the hostel and saw toucans everyday during my stay! I would recommend for anyone who wants a more authentic experience and to enjoy the peace of mindo valley.

“Great hostel and host - Would recommend”

Peaceful property with hammocks, a good daily breakfast and comfy beds. The property was clean and is only about a 10 minute pleasant walk into the town. Big thanks to Mateo, the owner, for showing me around the area too! If I visit Mindo in the future, I would definitely stay again.

Very nice hostel with with nice staff and great service

The staff were friendly and it offers interesting tours of the area. It’s a very small hostel and feels quiet and peaceful.

“Great place for birdwatching and learning more about mindo!”

Matteo was a great host, super knowledgable about the area - he’s studying anthropology and even lived for a while with one of the local tribes, which you can do a day trip to learn about! I really learned a lot chatting with him and I recommend you do the same. The location was also great - it’s a little bit outside of the town (8 minute walk) which means the bird life is much better. Sitting out on the terrace we saw so many hummingbirds and even a few tucans!

The hostel is located in the middle of the jungle. The owner is very sociable.

“Wish we could have stayed longer!”

This place feels like home, Mateo is like a friend who you can ask for anything, always wants a chat and will help you with anything. The place is so peaceful, and clean. The kitchen is nice, the breakfast is also good. We will always come back here if we come to Mindo. You can organise any trips here, mateo is so knowledgable about everything you need!

Everything new, everything ok The only hostal with the view on Mindo Amazing Many birds and animals all around It's in the Jungle Amazing You have to walk 10-15 minutes from the center to get it, but then it make sense The beds are new so you are going to sleep well

“Everytime again.”

Inti Mindo Hostel is a very special place in the nature. Mateo is a very friendly guy and he knows a lot about indigenes people and culture. He has good recommendations for trips, hostels and everything. If I would go again to Mindo, I would definitely go to Inti Hostel, because there I can relaxe and be myself. Thanks for everything and good success for your project and your personal future! Un abrazo... Benjamin
