One of Ecuador’s most elegant and upscale resorts is located at the end of a nondescript dirt road just outside Cotacachi. La Mirage was once an elegant colonial hacienda, but since the establishment was purchased and renovated by the prestigious French hotel chain Relais & Chateaux, Mirage has become an exclusive spa and retreat. There are 23 suites, each of which features a fireplace, original paintings on the walls, elegant four-poster bed, TV, and tasteful decorations. The Mirage spa is one of the main attractions. The treatments are expertly done: options range from a simple massage to a “purification treatment,” in which a massage is combined with a real fire-breathing local shaman who conducts a traditional spiritual cleansing.
Remote, yes. Expensive, yes. But life is short and if you’re the sort of person who can afford the best–the very best–it is hard to find a hotel in Ecuador that outdoes the Mirage. Rates include breakfast and sumptuous three-course dinner.
