Mashpi Lodge is an award-winning expedition hotel located in the Metropolitan District of Quito, Ecuador, nestled within a 2,500-acre private reserve in the Chocó-Andean cloud forest.
A cocoon in the clouds, this ultra-modern sanctuary is designed to disappear into the emerald canopy, offering a front-row seat to one of the most biodiverse places on Earth.
Contemporary Glass Suites feature floor-to-ceiling windows that turn the forest into a living mural. The minimalist design ensures no distraction from the orchids, hummingbirds, and mist outside.
Immersive forest exploration is led by expert naturalist guides. Glide through the treetops on the Sky Bike, climb the Observation Tower for 360-degree views, or fly across the canopy on the Dragonfly gondola.
Science and discovery are at the heart of the lodge. Visit the Life Centre to learn about butterflies and plants, or join researchers at the on-site laboratory to discover the forest’s hidden species.
The Expedition Dining Room serves "forest-to-table" cuisine, blending sophisticated techniques with local ingredients like mountain garlic, wild palms, and exotic fruits found within the reserve.
Your stay is fully inclusive, covering all gourmet meals, guided forest expeditions, and transfers from Quito, ensuring a seamless journey into the heart of the wild.
