The Mashpi Lodge has been accepted into the Virtuoso Hotels & Resorts Program, joining Casa Gangotena as the only Virtuoso-approved hotel properties in Ecuador.
Opened last year about three hours from Quito, the lodge has won global acclaim for nature lovers. The luxury eco-lodge sits at more than 3,000 feet above sea level and is surrounded by rain forest, cloud forest and hundreds of plant and animal species.
“We’ve been working really hard to make the hotel a unique, original and magical experience for our guests,” General Manager Roberto Mora said in a statement. “Being part of the Virtuoso program is a great honor for us and redoubles my team’s efforts to make the lodge truly world-class.”
