Had some difficulty finding it, as I was driving alone and my Spanish is terrible, but once I arrived, I had zero complaints! There are two Balcon del Lagos on Google Maps, make sure to go to the one closer to the lake. The staff is extremely friendly, and truly care about your experience. The cabins themselves have stunning views, hot water, and are very cozy. I would highly recommend staying here, for a fun and authentic Ecuadorian experience! ##### Bryan Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Héloïse Sep 22, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Un estafa El lugar es muy descuidado, desde las áreas comunes hasta la habitación. La única parte bien cuidada es el exterior. En nuestro caso, no tuvimos ni agua caliente, ni WiFi, mientras el estacionamiento consiste en pegarse a la pared de la casa, en labcalle. Quasi todo en la descripción es falso, no tiene cortinas blackout, tampoco edredón de plumas o ropa de cama de alta calidad. No tiene calefacción, y la chimenea indicada está en la área común así que sufrimos bastante del frío. Pero más que todo, la atención fue pésima, obviamente no ganas de recibir a huéspedes. El desayuno si era correcta y la vista muy bonita. ##### Héloïse Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Jul 31, 2019 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The view was great. There was no sound proofing so you would hear everything from the outside, the multiple dog fights during the night, the neighbor's loud music, people having sex in the cabin next door, the roosters from 4am. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ALIDA Apr 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excelente atencion de sus propios dueños Muy buena la experiencia para quienes buscan algo que no sea tan caro y tan lujoso, es un ambiente campestre y rustico, la atención excelente, lo recomiendo ##### ALIDA Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Es un establecimiento hermoso manejado por gente muy buena.

Los propietarios muy amables. Si busca turismo más de aventura es una buena alternativa. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sam Feb 5, 2018 Liked: Staff & service Was much more rustic than the description. Was OK for us but hard for some. We did have a fire in our room but not in dining area and that was quite bold. We were the only ones there and meals seemed kind of awkward. The family members were very nice and tried very hard. But different from advertised: no hot water, no bottled water, no “bar” ( they did have some beer) and 24 hour service does not really apply. But if you want to stay as “locals”. This was fine ##### Sam Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard Jan 31, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great views. Warm family and community vibe.Hard to find. ##### Richard Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Aug 30, 2016 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Misleading Unfortunately, we were not looking for the rustic experience and that is what we received. The guys helping out and the lady assisting were very good. If you are looking for the rustic experience and want to be away from Otavalo as well as going up a dirt road then this is your place. However, you can't beat the view. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 26, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### linda vista excelente trato, un lugar hermoso rodeado de la naturaleza ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Aug 15, 2016 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Schwer zu finden Sehr einfache Zimmer. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jun 29, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Awesome view! A beautiful stay!! Jessica, Efrain and Andres were so wonderful, warm and welcoming. Rooms have an awesome view but getting there was a little tricky. I read the reviews ahead of time and followed the directions that someone posted because our GPS on our rental car did not find the lodge. We looked for the man on a horse as land mark and made the turn on the church. Road was mostly dirt. The couple of down falls of the place was the small signs to guide you there and the hot water. We could only get hot water if you turned it at very low pressure, but glad we had some hot water! Quick showers is the way to go. If you just follow the mark points it's easy to get there and a must stay! Food was great, close to site seeing and hospitality was 5 stars. Would recommend this without hesitation. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### lise Jun 7, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Chambre rustique et environnement paradisiaque Navette de l'aéroport à las Cabañas offerte par l'hôte pour $70\. CAD parfait. Accueil chaleureux des hôtes et de la communauté indigène. Village sécuritaire, autobus pour aller à Otavalo ou à Quito à proximité et peu coûteux. Paysage magnifique avec vue sur le lac San Pablo et le volcan Imbabura. On peut prendre le souper sur place avec réservation. Confort minimal et rustique compensé grandement par l'accueil et le paysage. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s565-peb4a26d0-2c50-11e6-ae4c-124245a7ccb9-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### lise ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jan 8, 2016 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Ok there were some issues Community water problems for instance ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Anne og Kiki, Groenlandia, Greenland, Dec 12, 2015 Liked: Staff & service #### Meget rustikt Hvis du vil opleve bergliv bland de indianske oprindelige folk, varme, gæstfrihed og hjælpsomhed, så har du fundet det rigtige sted. Det er autentisk, og du bor klods op af gamle koner der passer deres dyr og kvinder med børn på ryggen i deres dragter, som er særprægen for egnen. Oplevelse for livet. Husk varmt tøj til kolde aftener... , Jessica og hendes familie gør alt for dig.... sengene er fine, morgenmad ok, , Stedet er for folk som ønsker en anderledes oplevelse for livet, ikke et kedeligt hotel med almulig komfort ##### Anne og Kiki ### 2/10 Terrible #### Maria Aug 11, 2024 ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CARLOS JAVIER Apr 9, 2023 ##### CARLOS JAVIER Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Everett](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels.d6054460.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel el descanso del Guia](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Ayora-Hotels-Hotel-El-Descanso-Del-Guia.h17525206.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Santo Domingo](https://www.expedia.ca/Santo-Domingo-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d180024-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Kingston](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingston-Hotels.d6057821.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Sun Peaks](https://www.expedia.ca/Sun-Peaks-Hotels.d181791.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Shirley](https://www.expedia.ca/Shirley-Hotels.d3000008934.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Thompson's Best Value Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Thompson-Hotels-Thompsons-Best-Value-Inn-Suites.h9216.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Grande Prairie (YQU) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqu/ylw/grande-prairie-to-kelowna) > > [Flights from Jeju City (CJU) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cju/yvr/jeju-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yvr/calgary-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Saint John (YSJ) to Barcelona (BCN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ysj/bcn/saint-john-to-barcelona) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Incheon (ICN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/icn/ottawa-to-seoul) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Abbotsford (YXX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/yxx/winnipeg-to-abbotsford) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/ylw/edmonton-to-kelowna) > > [Flights from Frankfurt (FRA) to Beirut (BEY)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fra/bey/frankfurt-to-beirut) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/yyz/winnipeg-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Key West (EYW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/eyw/toronto-to-key-west) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mia/toronto-to-miami) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Jaipur District (JAI)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/jai/toronto-to-jaipur) ### Activities ### Packages ### Vacation Rentals > [Cornwall Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Cornwall-Vacation-Rentals.d181920.Travel-Guide-VacationRentals) ### General > [Visit Kirkwall](https://www.expedia.ca/Kirkwall.dx1883) > > [Visit Noelville](https://www.expedia.ca/Noelville.dx6345941) > > [Visit Marais](https://www.expedia.ca/Paris-Marais.dx178677)
