Hosteria Itapoâ

Hotel

V!VA User‘s Description

Named after the owner’s favorite beach in her home country of Brazil, Hostería Itapoâ is about one block from Puerto Lopez’s beach and has a comfortable, tranquil atmosphere. When you first enter, it feels a little like you are trespassing into someone’s backyard. Press on and you will see three cabañas on the left and rooms in a small building on the right of the main garden and eating area. The cabañas are nicer than the other rooms and have private porches with hammocks.

For an extra charge of about $2 a night, you can have unlimited access to the turkish bath and hot tub. The owner loves to cook and will happily prepare you a meal upon request. During high season, she offers packages which include breakfast and hot tub access.

best one in Puerto Lopez

Rating: 100%

This is probably the best hosteria in Puerto Lopez! The owners are very friendly and help you with everything. They can organize you a boat tour, diving trip, bycicling and a lot more. Moreover Raul is a Biologist who offers tours to a rain forrest reserve close to Pueto Quito, where you can enrole as a volunteer if you like. I did it and it is definitely worth it. The place has a yakuzzi and turkish bath and a nice cafeteria where you have your breakfast served.

I am sure you won't be disappointed!

We felt at home, Raul and Maria, the owners are really kind and willing to help you at any time. Raul is a biologist who is ready to share his knowledge of nature at once. The place is beautiful and has a new beach front that makes it even better.

i liked the room i was given very much and for a good price. the owner, maria, is the most kindest person!! when i was there they were still constructing, building other cabañas and making the place look nicer,just in front of the beach they were going to put a bar restaurant i think, i'm sure that after everything's finished there, it will look really beautiful!! although it already is!!

Esta hosteria es de lo mejor, la atencion es personalizada, su dueña es brasilera muy amable, las cabañas son hermosas y muy comodas, por el mismo precio se puede disfrutar el hidromasaje. En realidad es un lugar muy acogedor con ambiente familiar en el que ademas se puede estar en contacto con la naturaleza, y está una cuadra de la playa.
