    It is amazing beach and surf town on the Ecuador coast.

    It is amazing beach and surf town on the Ecuador coast. Frankly I can’t get enough, with festive atmosphere, restaurants and artists, great sandy beaches with popular surf breaks. Trips and trails inland and spectacular wildlife from pelicans and many various birds to iguanas and a herd of cattle that wander through town and the beach. A colorful and unique experience for any adventurers.

    Very pleasant small town with lots of good restaurants,...

    Very pleasant small town with lots of good restaurants, places to stay and a vibrant nightlife, not to mention a lovely long beach with decent surf, so what's not to like? Can be noisy on the main streets, but isn't that what many come for in the first place? Prices are on the high side at restaurants but there are some excellent options. There is even a wine store with some decent options.

    Montañita has two faces.

    Montañita has two faces. First, it is a mecca for partying, where you can find just what you want. There is "Lost Beach Club", one of the top worldwide clubs for electronic music accordingly to the DJMAG. If you are not in the mood for electronic, you can go for regaeton in one of the clubs alongside the "Calle de los Cockteles" or Cocktail Street. Also, if you want to get crazy with an awesome party, visit "Caña Gril", must go. Second, it is a paradise for surfers and solo travellers. If you match this description, so you must stay in "La punta de montañita", nice hostels full of chill people. Also, you can work remotely. Imagine just picking up your surf table after a long day working, and surf pretty nice waves while looking a beautiful sunset. That you will get in Montañita.

    I love montanita because of the surf, fun waves.

    I love montanita because of the surf, fun waves. You can take hour bus ride to puerto lopez and do day trips, diving, snorkeling, kayka, hiking, so much. There is a waterful close by (10 min by taxi) to hike about 2 miles each way. Montanita the actually city can be quite loud, lots of shops and places to eat.

    Montañita is a fun little beach town.

    Montañita is a fun little beach town. The beach is clean and the waves are great to play in, It’s a great place to meet people, take Spanish lessons or surf lesson several places to eat, buy groceries. I loved The Wave a coffee shop.

    Great small beach town.

    Great small beach town. Pretty quiet on the weekdays but surges to fill blown liveliness on the weekends. I experienced a mix of both - relaxing and partying and it was perfect. The entire town can be experience in a few days,anything longer than the excitement starts to wear off. The beach offers surfing, snorkeling, and amazing sunsets. The town is small but has lots of shopping and food options. There are also several nearby beaches (1-2 hrs) which cost $20-25 to get to by taxi. Overall really enjoyed.

    Fantastic cozy new place in a beautiful area of montanita. Wifi works great. Had a perfect stay here , Extra points for Karen!very responsive, their boat is brand new and they limit their capacity to 6 people which is perfect because is very comfortable for a 2 hour ride to see the whales and the blue footed boobies! Super comfortable apartments brand new and very well equipped. Very safe for walking at any time. Far away from the town music and convenient location. Best spot in town

    Centrally located and clean. It is is the perfect mixture of family style with a lovely group of fellow guests who are down to be friends and go out with each other. Since this isn’t one of the 40 bed form hostels, the place stays clean, people are respectful and the owner knows your name. I slept at a friend’s house one of the nights and the owner called to check on me, to be sure I was safe. The ideal hostel vibe for a place like Montanita.

    Even if nobody spoke english, owner tryied to be very helpfull, I appreciate it. My first impression was not great, in Tena or Banos I could have better for lower price. That changed when I had a chance to see some other hostels in Montanita. This one is still one of better. Montanita is not Banos. Because I stayed 5 nights, there was a nice surprice, my price included a tour to Salango island, it was realy nice.

    The hostel with the best, welcoming atmosphere in Ecuador! The staff was very friendly and open. It's quiet, you can easily get rest. It's 1 min to the beach. Everything you need is close. Colorado is the most wonderful person you can meet on the way - after the long travel I felt as at home. Thank you, Colorado :) The internet is very strong! I wish to come back just to have a small chat with them once more.

    Great location in a quieter part of Montañita but still within walking distance of the main party area. Very chilled atmosphere with dogs and cats laying around. Jackson (the manager) very friendly and helpful. Breakfasts were great and nice that it was different each day, rather than the same bread/eggs/fruit that you get in most hostels in Ecuador. Comfortable room. All great!

    This is by far the best place we have stayed the last 4 months of traveling. The facilities are amazing! Big garden, big outdoor kitchen, beach access, supermarket across the street and only 5 min from town - but far enough to not hear the party noise. Ramon and Gloria are very sweet and helpful. We extended our stay with 3 extra days and didn’t want to leave.

    The place and staff right up top level of places I've stayed in Ecuador thus far. Loved it so much I will be returning for at in another day to stay about a week. Wish I could be there for NYE bet it will be a blast. Told another Solo travel they stopped by and booked immediately. You can't go wrong booking Casa Del Sol

    Close enough to Montanita to walk there on the beach but far enough away as to avoid the crowds. Nice to have a private cabana with hot water. A big plus was the food in nearby Manglar Alto.
