HOSTERIA ECOAVENTURA, is easy to get to. It is locatedd on the Baños-Puyo highway, 25 kilometers from Baños. Three is excellent bus service from either Baños or Ambato as the bus stops right at the front entrance. Cost of the trip from Baños is $0.50 to $0.75, depending on the bus company and takes about 25-30 minutes depending on the driver. From Ambato, add one hour and the cost is only $1.50.
Along with the name change a lot of other changes are being made. We have decided to operate as as a full service "Hosteria" where you can either opt for a private cabin ($20.00 per night dbl, $4.00, extra person), or share a cabin with other travelers for only $5.00 per person. Each cabin has hot water showers.
The Restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and serves a typical Ecuadorian fare. Beer and sodas served all day.
The swimming pool is open from 8AM until 6PM. The pool is fed from the Margjita River, and uses no chemicals. It is drained and cleaned every evening.
We recently had visitors from a folkloric dance group from Salasaca, a community between Baños and Ambato. There were 12 members in the group and they spent the night and entertained with their music and dances.
This picture was taken on the banks of the Pastaza River. It had been raining the night before creating severl waterfalls along the far banks.
