LOCATION
Step outside, cross the quiet sandy lane, descend a short dune, and you’re on Playa Bonita. Rent a lounge chair, sip fresh coconut water, book a beach massage, or wander miles of uncrowded shoreline. Weekends bring a friendly buzz—watch locals dance at sunset—while weekdays remain blissfully quiet.

• USD 1.25 local truck rides to Manta, or flag a tuk-tuk for a USD 0.50 hop to village stores

EXPERIENCES
World-class kiteboarding (three schools nearby), surfing, SUP, snorkelling, scuba, deep-sea fishing, and—June to October—humpback-whale watching from your balcony or the rooftop deck.
Insider tip: vendors pass the gate daily with fresh fruit, veg, bread, and seafood—just listen for the horn.
Olas is perfect for couples and solo travellers who want the full Santa Marianita beachfront vibe, plus fast Wi-Fi and the lullaby of waves every night.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
