Hotel

By Kristi Mohrbacher

Hostal Marena cannot be missed. Painted bright taffy pink and set against the deep greens of the surrounding jungle, this cheery hostal is on the south side of the main road into Misahuallí. It is just one block from the community's main square.

Rooms are also bright with colorful (though peeling) walls and mismatched blankets. The hostal has 35 beds total; 6 doubles, 3 triples, 4 matrimonials and the rest are quads. Each room has a private bathroom, hot water, television and fans. There are areas for lounging outside of the rooms and there is a restaurant that is open when large groups are on-site. In the evening, guests can partake in karaoke in the bar downstairs while drinking cocktails and imported liquors.

 The hostal also has its own licensed travel agency that can set up jungle tours, visits with nearby Quichua tribes or shaman, rafting, tubing, motor canoe rides and more. Just inquire at reception.
