Unfortunately they don’t want people camping here anymore.

That's an awesome spot if you search a quiet place to stay a bit outside of the city. Lots of place on the whole area - you can park everywhere you want. Nice people around and sometimes occasions (show jumpings etc).
We enjoyed staying here - especially travelling with dogs, you find here space to walk and space to let your dog run.
7$ per car - actually no showers, but clean toilets in the stables or in the restaurant/reception.

mega great place with nice operators. $7 per car. We stayed 2 Days. I couldn't find a shower. WiFi is sometimes there and sometimes gone but ok. Dog friendly with lots of space.

El lugar es una hacienda espectacular para quienes se quieren hospedar de manera convencional (lunes -Sabado) para los campera es solo un parqueadero, tienes acceso solo a baño, puedes llegar en cualquier horario, nuestra experiencia fue muy bonita incluso asistimos a “tornillo” el cual sufre de epilepsia y convulsionó (literalmente) al vernos. Hay varios perros pero todos amigables. Cerca a Mall del Río, en un barrio llamado Baños. Recomendado.

Super safe place to stay. They were happy to let us sleep there and use their washroom and wifi. Still 6$ per night! Place is really clean and workers very friendly.

Great place on the edge of Cuenca. Nice facilities, horse barns are currently under going renovations. Family run original business was started by great grandfather, sold by grandfather then bought back by grandfather. Daughter runs lodging, mother banquets and father facilities. A touch above most campsites. Restaurant on site.

Perfect place: friendly people, private bathroom, quiet, clean air, wifi and electricity. 10 USD Taxi into town 5 USD. So much better than place in town with false dog (Cabañas Yanuncay).

This was an okay spot if you want to spend some time in Cuenca. We took the bus into town for $.25 one way. We also had our laundry done here but a bit expensive. $16 for a large load. Flat places to park but do call ahead to make sure there are no major events going on.

We called ahead to check if we could camp: no problems at all, people were friendly when we arrived and we could stay in whatever parking lot we wanted. There's WiFi around the buildings. Paid $6 pp/pn without shower. Laundry service is available.

Same comment as a previous overlander...the man on site was unfriendly at best : no possible to camp or to book accommodation on spot, even tho it was dead quite (not a single car). He told us we needed to book online. We said we could camp. Same story...you need to book online. It's a shame! Looks like a beautiful spot. There are so many other friendly place around Cuenca for overlanders....

This is the best place in Ecuador we have been to (... we are traveling Ecuador already 5 months). Huge area with wonderful gardens. Lovely hosts and all the amenities your are looking for. Highly recommended. Prices are still the same as reported before.

Maybe better check availability beforehand. When we arrived they had a group staying at the hospedaje and wouldn't allow us to camp although the place looks huge. The young guy who told us this was not very welcoming or friendly.

The price is still $10/ night with hot showers in one of the rooms by the reception area. Decent Internet at reception. You can get a room for $25 with 4 beds and fireplace, excellent for larger groups or sharing. On the edge of town but the air quality is much better here, also quiet at at night.

Hotel on a huge property near Cuenca. There is plenty of space for camping and they opened us a room for using the bathroom. With the bus it's a 20 minutes ride to the old town of Cuenca (¢25). $10 per night.

Stayed for 2 nights at the parking lot of the Events Hall. Very quiet and beautiful surrounding. The electricity is inside of the Hall so we used 2 extension cords (15 mts each) to get there. Bathrooms outside the stables were not very clean. Paid 1 night US$6 for 2 people and the vehicle, no shower, and 1 night US$10 with hot shower in one of their rooms, available at Reception (300-400 mts away from the parking lot). Internet available only at Reception.
It worked OK for us for the low price.

Huge Area with a Hosteria / Restaurant and Horse Stables, big parking lot. We spend a week here... Green surrounding, about 8km from the Center, Bus at the main road about 800mtrs. Very friendly owners (Don Oscar) just ask or send a mail...after 2weeks at the Cabana Yanuncay it was a pleasure to be here.
