Not a hotel: We are not a hotel — there are no porters, receptionists and no room service. You will need to carry your own baggage on gravel and rock paths.
Check-in: Check-in is from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Please call our guest service number when you begin your drive to Yuquiyu so we can meet you and show you to your treehouse. To take advantage of any time you have before checking in, you may wish to pick up some supplies at a nearby grocery store. The treehouse is supplied with yogurt (notify us if you are vegan), granola, oatmeal, coconut milk, cashews, raisins, and fresh fruit. Honey, sugar packets, olive oil, Himalayan pink salt and black pepper are included. You can also bring eggs and dairy.
Check-out: Check-out is at 12 pm. Please leave the keys inside the treehouse and close the balcony doors and windows. You may leave your clean dishes drying in the drainer. You are welcome to store your baggage in our office, and continue to enjoy the property until it’s time to depart for your next destination.
Keeping in touch: If you have any questions or concerns, the best way to reach us is by a phone call to 212-787-0500 or a text message to the same number.

Barrio Jiménez Map
After you’ve turned left at the Km 25.3 marker (C), you will be going downhill and cross a low, concrete bridge over the Espíritu Santo river. From the bridge, continue uphill toward the Km 1.2 marker. Just before that marker, turn left onto La Pirámide, go right and then go right again. Before long, you will come to a sharp turn and begin to climb the hill upon which Yuquiyú is located. As you reach the top, you will see the Yuquiyú sign. Park on the flat, grassy area on top of the hill and follow the signs to our reception area. To save a trip back uphill, you may want to bring your baggage down with you.
