Directions

We are 1.7km from central Baños, just off the Baños– Puyo road.

From the Baños bus terminal:
Continue down the main road towards Puyo for approx. 800m until you get to barrio San Vicente. Turn left off main road to enter barrio San Vicente. Continue for 300m and you will reach a stone/dirt road (El Camino Real). Continue down El Camino Real and we are 600m on the left hand side (the river side) with a large bamboo bush out the front.

Taxi will cost $1.25 (or $1, if you're lucky) or it’s a 1.7km downhill walk. If the taxi driver doesn't know where we are, just say we're 600m down from 'El Refugio' - a day spa that's been in the area for a long time.
