Hotel Minca

Minca


This 13-room place is the closest thing Minca has to a formal hotel. It has large, simple rooms in a colonial-style building that was once a convent, surrounded by thick vegetation. Breakfast on the balcony is an incredible spectacle as dozens of hummingbirds come to feed from sugar water put out for them by staff.
