Our essence

What makes Tayta Tuico special?

We are at Torre Loma, right on the edge of the Quilotoa crater, with the most direct and complete view of the emerald-coloured lagoon.

It was born from community effort: from opening paths where only the ancestral Chakiñan trail existed, from the union of families who refused to watch their land be forgotten.

We blend the Andean legacy with modern comfort: elegant glamping, respectful of nature, without losing the essence of our people.

We are not just accommodation: we are the land that bloomed again after abandonment and migration.
