About Hacienda Zuleta

The Hacienda Zuleta is a unique hotel based in the midst of a huge colonial working farm which produces quinoa, wheat, milk, cheeses as well as many more fresh organic crops and wild stock. The property has been owned by the previous president of Ecuador (Galo Plaza) and his family for over 100 years; many of the original fixtures are still in place and the recipes used in their restaurant have been passed down through the family ensuring delicious dishes are served at each mealtime.
