Peaceful setting: The property sits in a rural area outside Baños, right by the edge of Parque Nacional Llanganates, which makes mornings and evenings feel calm and removed from traffic and crowds.

Rooms with character: Expect a traditional look with tile or parquet floors and wood ceilings, plus private bathrooms and heating—useful in the cool highland climate around Baños.

Views and standout suites: Some rooms look toward Tungurahua Volcano, and higher-end suites are known for big windows and a private jacuzzi-style tub that turns downtime into part of the trip.

On-site dining: There’s a restaurant focused on Ecuadorian cooking using organic ingredients, and a bar where guests can unwind—often enjoyed out in the gardens when weather cooperates.

Activities from the doorstep: Hacienda Manteles Hotel organizes experiences like horseback riding, birdwatching, mountain biking, and a hike to the Payacucho waterfall through protected cloud forest.

Wellness after adventure: Massages are offered and can be arranged so you can fully relax without needing to head back into Baños after a long day outdoors.

Distance from town: Because it’s outside central Baños, getting to the basilica area, restaurants, and nightlife may require planning and transport rather than spontaneous walks.

Nature-first trade-offs: The rural location can mean more variable weather and occasional insects, especially if you spend time in the gardens or return from hikes.

Pros	Cons
Quiet hacienda setting beside Llanganates; strong nature views	Not a walk-to-town base for central Baños sights and dining
Organic-focused restaurant, gardens, and on-site activities	Outdoor-focused stays may bring weather and insect variability
