Lodging at Tinalandia
Tinalandia has two main lodging facilities: on the lower bank are the reception area and dining hall; the other on the upper bank hosts the main guest rooms and a recreation hall.
Next to the upper cabins is our 9-hole golf course which provides ample opportunities for butterfly-watching, as well as seeking birds that prefer open spaces and forest edges.
The 16 rooms, each with its own unique style, accommodate 41 guests and give Tinalandia an aristocratic character and charm.
The recreation hall is formed of an enormous interwoven network of "hard as stone" wooden floorboards. Card tables, several sofas and hammocks provide rest and relaxation after a long day of observation and adventure.
A spectacular view from the screened windows spanning the length of the wall reveals the splendor of Tinalandia´s location. For those who choose to spend the night listening to the nocturnal symphony of birds and insects, an Old-World patio grants you an extended vista over the valley of the river Toachi.
Designed in the 1950's, Tinalandia offers a perfect synthesis of nature and civilization - amazing vistas, clean rooms, private baths with hot water showers, and 24-hour electricity (supplemented by the owner´s own hydro-electric system) make this natural reserve as modern and comfortable as it is natural.
The meals at Tinalandia are wholesome, home-cooked, delicious dishes. Most of the fruits are collected from Tinalandia´s own gardens - we harvest only that which is necessary and leave the rest to drop to the ground for the birds and insects of the region. Most vegetables are bought in Quito from a hydroponic and organic French farm. A typical meal consists of soup, potatoes or rice, vegetables, and meat or fish.
