Nestled in the tranquil town of Puembo just outside Quito, the Puembo Birding Garden Hotel is a sanctuary for nature lovers and birdwatchers alike. The garden itself is a vibrant tapestry of tropical flowers, native shrubs, and fruiting trees, carefully cultivated to attract a dazzling array of bird species. Hummingbird feeders and banana stations are thoughtfully placed throughout the grounds, drawing in colorful visitors like the Western Emerald, Scrub Tanager, and Saffron Finch.
Beyond the garden, the surrounding lands offer a peaceful blend of rural charm and ecological richness. These landscapes are home to over 40 bird species visible right from the property, and the hotel offers guided excursions to nearby reserves where guests may encounter toucans, antpittas, and even the elusive Jocotoco Antpitta. Whether you're sipping coffee on the veranda or setting out on a birding adventure, Puembo Birding Garden provides a harmonious blend of comfort, conservation, and natural wonder.
