The Hacienda is adorned with old photographs and illustrations of Andean landscapes, a testimony to an era gone by. The antiques on display in the social areas give the visitor a taste of the Ecuadorian colonial and pre-Colombian cultures.

On the islands you will follow trails, walking at a leisurely pace, with your guide explaining the unusual sights you see.
