Hi James, it’s best to find them once you are in Cotacachi — very hard to find them in advance. But, you can email Jack Moss and tell him what you are looking for. He sends out a daily email in Cotacachi, so ask to be put on his list, too. He often sends out messages about rentals. Intheandes@gmail.com.
I’d suggest you rent a place temporarily for a month or two while you scour the town for your perfect place.
My husband and I are visiting Cotacachi for 10 days in March and would like to rent a place (I’d pay for 2 weeks if that’s necessary) that is furnished and has a kitchen or kitchenette. I don’t know of any hotels or hostels that have this – any ideas who to contact or suggestions?
Also, we will need a driver to pick us up from and take us back to the (hopefully new) airport. Suggestions?
Hey Andrea, see the post right above yours. Email Jack Moss and ask him to send your request to his list. Intheandes@gmail.com – -Be specific about what you are looking for. You can also email Larry Smith <lsmith9287@gmail.com> who is a rental manager here in Cotacachi. He may have something. Same with Susie Guerra: susana.guerra.7771@facebook.com
Worse case scenario, check out Hostal La Cuadra. They have private rooms with shared kitchen: http://www.lacuadra-hostal.com
