Accommodation and Hostels in Vilcabamba

  • El Agua de Hierro is under new management(same family as former owner), and it's actually a nice place to stay, with swimming pool, jacuzzis, sauna, steam room, bar, all the amenities. Dorm beds for $7, private rooms starting at $12. Long-term rentals available for $150/month. You may see reference to a terrible saga of the former owner slipping horse tranquilizers into female resident's drinks, then using his master key to get into their rooms at night and raping them. This repeatedly happened over the course of many years, it was even mentioned in the 2004 Lonely Planet guidebook. See this article The hotel used to be named Hostal Ruinas de Quinara. As of early 2009, this man has finally been run out of town, and the police at last have a warrant out for his arrest.

  • Madre Tierra Resort and Spa, 2 km north of Vilcabamba Center (Just north of the river on the hillside), . checkin: 3pm; checkout: 11:am. A recent guest to this destination Hotel, Spa, Restaurant and Conference Center described his stay here as "just like being on Maui". He was referring to the beautiful, lush vegetation and general feel of this unique jewel in the Andes. At an elevation of 5000 feet, a short distance south of the equator, the consistent Spring-like climate here is conducive to growing delicious organic fruits and vegetables year round. In fact many of the ingredients in Madre Tierra's lobby restaurant are harvested from gardens on site or just down the road. New owners in May of 2010 are health minded and have cleansed the kitchen of aluminum cookware, microwave ovens, fluoride salt and MSG. It is a good start on the way to a goal of exclusively organic fruits, produce and natural meat sources. An oasis on a hill overlooking the Valley of Longevity and Mandango, many guests have a difficult time leaving this special place. The “desert” menu includes a full range of natural, non fattening Spa services that are as memorable as the Bananas Flambé ado. Madre Tierra has been nominated by travel agents three times for the World Travel Awards, Leading Spa Resort in Ecuador! Come and see why. Free lobby internet and $4 per day WiFi in most rooms. $12 and up. �
