Banos Ecuador Hot Springs #1

 

The British owner of the 5 star Sangay Hotel, swears by the Balneario, El Salado, even though he has a hot spring in his own luxury hotel.  He soaks there every morning at dawn. He advises not to go for the clear blue swimming pools, but for the hottest, mineral richest & murkiest thermal baths in Banos Ecuador, that flow straight out of the volcanic hot springs of Baños Ecuador, source of the thermal baths. The richest one is a small somewhat murky pool at El Salado! The hottest and purest thermal bath in El salado. The smaller the bath, the purer the spring. For the brave, one can cool off in the icy cold river running by the pools.

Others vouch for the thermal baths hot springs in Banos Ecuador or the thermal baths de la Virgen at the end of the Avenida Martinez, next to the Cascada de la Virgen Waterfall plunging from the Tunguragua facade; At night it is beautifully illuminated. The 3 main  pools are open in daytime, while some pools downstairs are only open at night.

 

Balneario Santa Clara hot spring is focused in the local population.

Eduardo's Swimming pool is more focused on international clientele.

Banos, Ecuador Spa

Additionally there is a sub-industry, Banos, Ecuador, Spa with fabulous amenities, massage therapies, pedicures, etc, etc. The better hotels now have warm swimmingpools, saunas, Turkish baths, steam boxes, whirlpools, therapeutic and relaxing massages - even Chinese, Swedish or Thai -, facials, aromatherapy, medicinal mud baths and other spa-related treats are among the things to do in Banos Ecuador. Hotel guests get many of the facilities for free (not massages), while non-guests are charged a fee. El Refugio is a bit east of town in San Vicente, while downtown a wide choice of accommodations are available. Santa Clara thermal baths particularly attends to the indigenous and less wealthy Ecuadorians, while Eduardo's (above right) attends to a more affluent clientele with much steeper prices.

 

 

Recently, a British gentleman restored the beautiful Sangay Hotel to a fantastic 5 star hotel and spa at Banos, Ecuador, with all the amanties and services one can dream of. Most importantly, he went at great length restoring the beautiful main building to its original condition and much better, with all sorts of invisible fortifications to make the building earthquake proof. If you can effort it and like this kind of luxury, this is the place to go! We highly recommend it, but of course, Banos has many alternative places to sleep, varying from a few dollars per night for students and lovely great value for money inns and retreats.

Zipline #2

I was never going to do THAT! Until our lovely 9 year old tour companion said she was going to do it. Then what is an adult man to do........... Well, yes, it was scary, but not as bad as I had feared, and actually the zipline turned out to be GREAT FUN! The crew was very good at what they did and made you feel in safe hands. An alternative and less adrenaline laden way of passing the Pastaza Canyon is by cable cart, which also allows you to take better close-up pictures of the Manto de la Novia Waterfalls, Banos in Ecuador.

Descent to the Pailon Waterfall #3

Also located along the main road, is the Pailon del Diablo Waterfall Banos in Ecuador. This fall is what is left after a hydraulic electricity plant, built in the 1970s, funneled off most of the river water into a bi-pass through the rocks, leading to its turbines. But still the waterfall is dramatically beautiful and well worth the stop. You can take the stairs down to take a closer look.

Museum #15

Banos is not really old, and the Nuestra Senora del Agua Santa Church dates from the beginning of last century. But it is a lovely building in the neo-gothic style of that period, with a beautiful courtyard and a fantastic surprise: a general museum featuring rooms with ethnological, religious, historical, biological, and many other expositions  - particularly the collection of indigenous pottery is very interesting.

The quality is not top notch, but hey, this is done with very little money and is of great value to the local population. You, as a visitor will find some marvelous objects and it is well worth spending half an hour or so, just as long as you open your mind to the effort behind it all.

Our favorite hotel "El Pedron" is an oasis in town, totally covered in trees and surrounded by a beautiful garden. Reasonably priced, it is wise to make reservations on weekend nights as it is often full. No spa service but great hospitality.

This old watertower remodeled to serve as a restaurant gives a beautiful view of the surroundings!

 

Temperatures at Banos

We don't have statistics on sun hours, but be prepared for cloudy skies, even during the dry season in the Central Valley. Banos lies half way the relatively dry central valley and the wettest region surrounding Tena and Puyo. The humid air from the Amazon Lowlands get pushed up through the canyon, and as the air cools, humidity is forced out of the air, often forming fog and rain. On the other hand, the temperatures are quite ,usually quite comfortable for the many outdoors activities of the town, as well for enjoying the thermal baths.
