Client comments and reviews
What a beautiful place. Charming and interesting. Definitely worth the trip from Guayaquil. - KB (May 2023)
La Danesa was lovely, beautifully done, great staff and so nice to be on a working farm, I couldn't recommend it more. - FV (May 2023)
A wonderful family run hacienda with lovely, friendly staff. All of the activities are interesting and I would especially recommend the bee-keeping and chocolate making. All the food is delicious and I was very well looked after throughout my stay. I only had two nights and would have loved a third! - ED (September 2019)
