Overview

Cottage Playa Escondida

Ecuador Vacation Rentals Charming Cottage 2 bedrooms Beachfront within an Ecological Reserve on the Pacific Coast.

Our 120 square meter (1270 sq ft) vacation home sits on a beachfront, ocean view lot of 1200 sq m (13000 square feet) which is located within a private ecological and marine reserve.
Built on a cliff, surrounded by a tropical lush garden the African style roundhouse with palm thatched roof and half open living areas is a getaway for lovers of nature and ideal as a holiday home. A little path leads you in 2 minutes to a sandy beach enclosed by magic rock formations.
The owners of the neighboring lots are coming from different parts of the world (USA, Canada, Ecuador, Switzerland and Germany) and the common interest is to conserve this magical spot. Our aim is to preserve its nature, and to keep it as quiet as it is. This is our paradise !

A 5 hours drive from Quito, or a 30 minutes flight Quito – Esmeraldas plus a 45 minutes drive, take you here. The next supermarket is located in Same (17 km), the next bigger town is Atacames (25 km aprxm).

The house has a ground floor with an open plan kitchen/ living/ dining area and a bedroom with a queen size double bed (160 x 190 cm) and lots of storage room in built-in cupboards.
On a gallery level (half the size of the ground floor) there is a sleeping area, with a king size bed (200 x 200 cm), a double bed (140 x 190 cm) and shelf space. All beds have big, built-in mosquito nets and night lamps.
The bathroom with shower and eco-composting-toilet is located in a separate cottage at 10 meters from the main house. A second outdoor shower for a quick refreshing and after swimming in the ocean is available in the garden. Staying at Wantara Beach is more a luxury camping experience than a stay in a "normal" beach house. Perfect for nature lovers, its away from it all. You hear the sound of nature and zillions of birds, just a short walk from an hostel and its restaurant.
Our kitchen is fully equipped for up to 6 guests, it has a fridge and lots of storage room. The stove has an oven and four flames. The living room features two comfy sofas and hammocks and has the best view to the garden and forest.
