About the host
Hosted by Joan Quiceno
Welcome! We are a family-owned hospitality business that has proudly welcomed guests to beautiful Cuenca, Ecuador for over six years. Our passion has always been creating a place where travelers can enjoy the beauty and culture of Cuenca while experiencing the comfort, style, and quality often found in upscale North American accommodations.
Each of our apartments has been thoughtfully designed with modern furnishings, spacious layouts, and carefully selected amenities to create an inviting atmosphere that feels both luxurious and comfortable. We wanted our guests to enjoy the warmth of home while treating themselves to a relaxing vacation in a beautifully appointed space.
Hospitality is at the heart of everything we do. Although we live abroad, we personally manage every reservation and communicate directly with our guests from the moment they book until the day they check out. We pride ourselves on responding quickly—typically within minutes and rarely longer than an hour. If anything requires in-person assistance during your stay, our trusted local building manager is always available to help.
We believe exceptional hospitality goes beyond simply providing a beautiful apartment. It’s about creating a seamless experience from start to finish. Whether it’s recommending our favorite local restaurants, helping you plan your visit, or ensuring a smooth self check-in and check-out process, we strive to make every guest feel welcomed, cared for, and completely at home.
Our greatest compliment is hearing that our guests felt comfortable, relaxed, and genuinely looked after. We continuously look for ways to exceed expectations because our goal isn’t just to provide a place to stay—it’s to create an experience you’ll want to return to and recommend to family and friends.
We look forward to welcoming you to Cuenca and helping make your visit truly unforgettable.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect combination of convenience, authenticity, and tranquility. Located just minutes from Cuenca’s historic center, our guests enjoy easy access to many of the city’s most popular attractions while staying in a welcoming residential neighborhood that offers a more local experience.
Nearby attractions include:
• Museo Pumapungo – 4 minutes • Mariscal La Mar International Airport – 8 minutes • Planetario de Cuenca – 7 minutes • Museo de las Culturas Aborígenes – 9 minutes • Parque Calderón & Cuenca’s Historic Center – 11 minutes by car or approximately 22 minutes on foot • Parque Miraflores – 8 minutes • Parque de La Luz – 10 minutes • Teatro Carlos Cueva – 10 minutes • Piedra de Agua Thermal Spa – 20 minutes • AMARU Bioparque – 15 minutes
One of our favorite features of the neighborhood is the large local farmers market located just one block away. Guests can shop for fresh fruits, vegetables, flowers, local specialties, and everyday groceries while experiencing a true taste of Cuenca’s local culture.
You’ll also find numerous restaurants, cafés, bakeries, grocery stores, pharmacies, banks, and other conveniences just minutes away, making it easy to enjoy everything the city has to offer.
The neighborhood is lively during the day with the normal rhythm of daily life, yet it becomes noticeably quieter in the evenings, providing a peaceful place to relax after a day of exploring. Taxis are readily available throughout the area, making transportation around Cuenca quick, convenient, and affordable.
Whether you’re visiting for vacation, business, family, or a longer stay, we believe this location offers an ideal balance of accessibility, comfort, and authentic local charm.
What makes this property unique
Our goal has always been to offer something different from the typical vacation rental in Cuenca. Rather than simply providing a place to sleep, we’ve created modern, thoughtfully designed apartments that combine the comfort of home with the elevated experience of an upscale vacation stay.
Every apartment includes:
✔ High-speed WiFi ✔ Smart TVs with complimentary Netflix ✔ A fully equipped kitchen with everything needed to prepare meals ✔ Comfortable living and dining areas ✔ A private washer and dryer exclusively for your apartment ✔ Quality linens and towels ✔ Spacious layouts designed for both short and extended stays ✔ Electronic self check-in with secure access codes for a smooth arrival experience
For your peace of mind, security cameras monitor the common areas of the building, while every apartment remains completely private.
One of our biggest advantages is flexibility. Whether you’re traveling as a couple, family, business traveler, digital nomad, or large group, we have accommodations to suit your needs. Families and groups can even reserve multiple apartments—or our entire collection of vacation apartments—to stay together while still enjoying the privacy of separate living spaces.
Our penthouse apartment also features a private terrace with beautiful city and mountain views, offering the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind after a day exploring Cuenca.
Above all, what truly sets us apart is our commitment to hospitality. We understand that every trip is important, and we work hard to make every guest feel welcomed, comfortable, and cared for. From our prompt communication and local recommendations to our smooth self check-in process and attention to every detail, we continually strive to deliver the kind of five-star experience we would want for our own family.
We don’t just want you to have a great stay—we want you to feel at home while enjoying the comfort and elegance of a modern vacation apartment.
