Hacienda Zuleta

Zuleta is a 4,000 acre (2,000 hectare) colonial working farm that has belonged to the family of Mr. Galo Plaza Lasso, a former president of Ecuador, for more than 100 years. It was chosen as one of the world's 'Top Ten Finds' by Outside magazine and named as one of the best Ecuador Hotels by National Geographic Traveler.

15 beautifully decorated guestrooms, antique gardens, and cozy living and reading rooms, which have entertained famous visitors including past presidents and dignitaries, offer a peaceful atmosphere that invites guests to relax at their leisure. Delicious home Ecuadorian cuisine among other types of gastronomic adventures are offered daily, prepared with organic vegetables, trout, and dairy products produced on the Hacienda.

The Plaza family with their natural warmth and hospitality welcomes guests to their country house and invites them to share the life of an authentic hacienda in the Ecuadorian Andes. Hacienda Zuleta's hospitality retains an intimacy, warmth, and sincerity reminiscent of a century past, and offers a level of privacy rarely achieved in the 21st century.
