Mindo · 树屋 · 1室2床1.0卫 · 可住4人 · The Bird Tower, Nature lovers dream!
Bird/Mammal/Treehouse tower in a 6-acre paradise in the Cloud Forest. The perfect way to immerse yourself in this diverse area. Every nature, bird and photographer lover's dream. Located 3km out of the village of Mindo along the famous birdwatching trail, 5 minutes walking distance from Ziplines, 25 minutes from the waterfalls/cable car. This is a truly unique place; the only birdwatching tower in the Mindo area. The tower is set over 4 floors offering a 360-degree view on every floor. The flora and fauna can be witnessed at every level of the cloud forest and the tower ensures you get to see everything. Whether you are preparing meals and being distracted by the hummingbirds flashing past or waking up in the bedroom to the sight of a family of parrots flying over or enjoying a beer in the observation floor whilst the Kinkajous visit the feeding platforms! Every floor offers something different. The Bird Tower is located on a 6-acre property that is secondary cloud forest. There are trails all around the property and outdoor seating areas. Come and connect with nature and be truly immersed in the cloud forest.
This is by far the most unique place I’ve ever stayed in, I stayed for 4 nights and enjoyed wandering around the property and herping. Eric was very helpful and proactive with anything I needed as well as gave me plenty of good information about the area and its reptiles and amphibians. Highly Recommended!!
A great place to escape into nature and enjoy some peace and quiet. Joining the night walk was an extra bonus.
Our time at Eric's bird tower was wonderful. We wanted to have as many experiences with the creatures of Mindo as we could during our stay and staying on property to bird watch in the mornings and attend Eric's night walks made that effortless. All you have to do is wake up and look outside to see beautiful birds, especially the hummingbirds. I already miss cooking and washing dishes in the outdoor kitchen among all the activity near the hummingbird feeders.
Eric’s treehouse was really great - it manages to squeeze in all the basic amenities and also have beds for 4 and an amazing rooftop. The location is as advertised - out in the woods with lots of trails and near zip lining and such. Night hikes were a really fun addition - highly recommend. Eric was an amazing host, always responsive and so helpful, whether we needed a recommendation, a ride (locally or long-haul), something for the house or literally anything else. WiFi was generally totally functional for remote work/school and it was such a luxury to be able to get up and have coffee (and homemade breakfast!) amongst the birds and then work on the upper deck. Highly recommend!
Si eres amante a la naturaleza, las aves y la construcción sostenible, este lugar es para ti! La torre de aves tiene una vibra safari y rústica. Consiste en 4 pisos, los cuales cada uno están equipados con lo necesario para que disfrutes del tiempo en el bosque de Mindo. La temperatura durante la estadía fue perfecta, cálida de día y fresca de noche. Inicialmente elegí este airbnb para hacer observación de aves y pudimos apreciar diversos colibríes, tangaras y tucanes. Recomiendo que lleves tu cámara y la tengas lista porque en cualquier momento; la naturaleza puede sorprenderte! A futuros huéspedes, sugiero que como se debe caminar solo un par de minutos a la torre desde el estacionamiento, vayas con una mochila liviana y ubiques tus pertenencias en el primer piso (baño). Así será más cómodo para ti y no tendrás que subir con ella por los escalones. Para nosotros esto no fue un problema, a lo contrario, fue toda una aventura especial e inolvidable. Muchas gracias Eric por todo!!!
The Bird Tower is located 3 kilometers outside the village of Mindo. The exact location is on the main birdwatching trail that all "twitchers" visit with the guides as the bird activity in our neighbourhood is the best in Ecuador. 5 minutes walking distance to the ziplines and 25 minutes to the waterfalls. The walk into the village of Mindo is a beautiful walk taking approx 45 minutes and a taxi ride back to the tower with your groceries is only $4 making everything feel very accessible. The tranquility of this neighbourhood is remarkable, with no permanent neighbours around, you can wake up every morning to the sound of birds and fall asleep to the sound of frogs.
The Bird Tower is close to the attractions and for people who love hiking nothing is further than a 45 minute hike. Alternatively, a cell phone is provided with taxi numbers so you can easily call a taxi if you need to. Ziplines - 5 minutes walk, waterfalls - 25 minutes walk, village of Mindo - 45 minute walk, butterfly farm - 45 minute walk. The entire area is very safe to walk day or night. Please note that there is no bank machine in Mindo. The closest ATM is in Los Bancos which is a $10 round trip from Mindo by taxi.
自我介绍
I moved to Ecuador from Canada because of the incredible biodiversity in this beautiful country. I'm living in Mindo which is in the transition zone between the Chocó rainforest and the Andes mountains creating a mixture of diversity from both regions. The climate is perfect here. There is upwards of 600 species of birds in Mindo which are all amazing to see. My passion lies with nocturnal creatures so I also offer guided night walks on the property every night. I would love to have you stay! Usually I'm in Mindo but I sometimes travel to other parts of Ecuador to see other species of animals in the wild. Usually Nick hosts if I'm away, and he's awesome too!
