I couldn’t help but chuckle as I began writing about the incredible, magical Airbnb called Tierra. Nestled along the coastal beauty of Portoviejo, Ecuador, this 5-star rated destination is not just a place to stay but a “mini-mansion” ready to embrace heartwarming stories and laughter. Tierra is more than just a vacation spot; it’s a labor of love inspired by conversations and a desire to create something truly special.

This place called “Land of the Grandparents” or “Tierra de Los Abuelos” – a work-in-progress family homestay plantation that pays homage to customs and traditions. After raising my children and retiring early, I embarked on this ambitious project to build a space where visitors are treated like family. From the moment you step foot into Tierra, you’ll be greeted with open arms and guaranteed a uniquely humble and memorable stay.

Now, I know what you’re thinking – “Why stay at a place that’s still under development?” Well, my friend, that’s the beauty of it. Tierra is a canvas where your ideas and suggestions will shape its future. As you relax in one of the traditional huts, you’ll have the opportunity to share your thoughts and be part of this exciting journey. Who knows, maybe you’ll leave a lasting mark on this raw and developing space!

They say that the true value of travel lies not in the cost or sacrifices but in the hands that guide you along the way. And at Tierra, you can rest assured that you’re in the best hands possible. From the moment you arrive until the day you bid farewell, you’ll be immersed in a world where laughter echoes through the air and love seeps through every crack. So pack your bags, my friend, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure at Tierra – the Airbnb that’s more than just a place to stay; it’s a home away from home, built with love and cherished memories
