HACIENDA
CUSIN - Imbabura Hacienda
Cusin is a restored 17th century Andean estate at 8,500 feet, 90
minutes north of Quito and 20 minutes south from the famous market
town of Otavalo. The Equatorial line and snow-capped Cayambe mountain
are 30 minutes away.
Cusins terracotta-tile roofs, winding cobblestone pathways,
courtyards and perennial gardens nestle beneath a deep blue sky
in a wide, pastoral lake valley. Nearby, the often snow-capped 15,000-foot
Cotacachi volcano is reflected in Lago San Pablo.
An ancient lakebed, cool nights and a predictable equatorial sun
have conspired with avid gardeners to create several acres of ever-blooming
gardens which include belladonna, bougainvillea, agapantha, acanthas,
foxgloves, orchids and palms that attract over 50 species of birds.
Guestrooms are individually styled and have views of perennial
gardens. Most guestrooms have log-burning fireplaces, beamed ceilings
and king-size beds.
Public rooms Salons Bolivar and Cotacachi, Sala de Lectura are antique
furnished and have log-burning fireplaces.
