Hacienda Rumiloma, Quito Ecuador

Hacienda RumilomaSeclusion, charm, exclusivity, magic… An oasis of rustic luxury overlooking Quito, Rumiloma is a haven for those seeking the finer things in Andean life. Set amid nearly 100 acres of primary and secondary forest on the eastern flank of the Pichincha Volcano, it lies at once within and without of the capital…

…From the guest suites’ decor to the restaurant’s menu, from the breathtaking views and surrounding countryside to the personalities of its owners and staff, Rumiloma’s irresistible formula of eclectica, nature, fun, Ecuadorian influences and traditions, and

sophisticated international taste delights all who visit.

The main building houses an outstanding restaurant featuring Ecuadorian-style fusion cuisine. The bottom floor has been converted into an intimate Irish/ Ecuadorian pub, complete

with a walk-in fireplace. There are several cozy sitting rooms perfect for relaxing after a long day touring in the

historic center, hiking in the surrounding hills, or just enjoying an after-dinner drink while gazing out over the

lights of the city to the Amazon jungle beyond.

The exceptionally appointed suites scattered around the hacienda are amongst the finest in the country.

Each casita, or little house, boasts a minimum of 600 sq. feet.

The suites are filled with a unique mix of antiques, art and collectables from the far corners of Ecuador. The rooms are the epitome of rustic luxury- pot

bellied stoves, colonial art, fluffy down covers, & spectacular bath rooms all housed within hand crafted walls of adobe and stone made and/or mined

here on the property

All have cozy sitting rooms, spacious bedrooms and

terraces or indoor gardens, and of course, the best views

anywhere in Quito.

met and fell in love with her husband Oswaldo, an hotelier and one of Ecuador’s

most accomplished mountain climbers, while climbing Cotopaxi.

In the 6 short years since they met they have managed to build not only a large family,

but to make a reality of their dream to create a cozy, luxury adventure Lodge on the hacienda that has been in Oswaldo’s

family for over 80 years.
