HACIENDA ZULETA, IMBABURA

Hacienda Zuleta is an astonishingly beautiful, working farm stretching from horizon to horizon. It comprises 4000 acres of scenic countryside, at the heart of which is an outstanding hacienda dating back to the 16th century. Each of the 21 rooms have been designed to transport you back in time, with antique colonial furniture and a cosy fireplace. Some of the rooms feature their own private gardens and terraces, ideal for taking in the awe-inspiring Andean landscapes beyond.

Owned by the family of Mr Galo Plaza Lasso for over a century, you can expect to be welcomed into this exceptional home in a genteel, traditional way that is entirely in keeping with the richness of its history and the respectability of the family. Similarly, you can expect excellent Ecuadorian cuisine prepared from organic, Hacienda-grown produce.
