Hato Verde means "green field", and this rustic red Hacienda contrasts sharply with its striking emerald surroundings. It is a family home and working farm and it has been converted into a small guesthouse without losing any of its cosy atmosphere.

There are nine simple yet comfortable rooms, and guests are invited to enjoy their meals and evening drinks with the Hacienda's owners, the family who still live here. María del Rosario, who runs the Hacienda, says she hopes guests will feel like they have been invited into her home, to share this family experience.

Part of the Hacienda is still a functioning farm, where curious guests are able to participate in the milking of cows, as well as tending to the small vegetable patches that feed the Hacienda´s guests and staff. Delicious fresh cheese is made on-site, and other necessities are sourced from local towns.
Within easy reach of the striking Cotopaxi Volcano, Hacienda Hato Verde has its own horses, bikes and a van for those who wish to travel further. Tours led by local guides can be arranged to nearby towns, rose plantations and cheese factories, a well as the region´s stunning crater lakes and bustling indigenous markets.
