PLAYAS, Ecuador Tropical Beach Vacation Rental

ABOUT PLAYAS All this, on the road to "Playas" (official name: General Villamil), a small coast town on the shores of the Gulf of Guayaquil. About an hour by car, or about -two, by bus from Guayaquil. The road (90Km.) is very good now (4 lane now-2007). Half of this road is the same one that goes to Salinas and the beaches north, Monta?ita, Machalilla, etc. At "Progreso" small town where the road splits, you take a left exit, which will head you to this quiet and easygoing town with a lovely climate year round, (best time weather May-June also best time for waves & conditions) in fact, Playas climate was named many years ago by UNICEF as "one of the best in the world", well inside the Gulf so as to be protected from the tenperate Humbolt and Peruvian currents that cool the southern and central Ecuadorian coast during the months of July to November.

"Playas" has a great sunny cool weather pretty much year round. Very hot and sunny on January thru' May, Cooler and partially cloudy most days from June thru' December. Best months for weather December early January. Also, and best waves & conditions May-June. Best of best time to come for surfing April-mid June.

This is real fishing town and these are the only type of boats you will see here, no yachts, no big fancy sport fishers, etc. just as it has been for decades. Here you will find all the seafood you could want, probably only comparable to the big seafood markets in the Far East. All kinds of shrimp, squid, crabs, giant ocean oysters, mussels, lobsters, conch, clams, mangrove oysters, 20-30 pound snooks, and red snappers to name just few daycatches and the famous "corvina", served with rice and a small onion salad on top for a dollar. Oyster, fish, cockle and conch ceviche $2,oo US each. Shrimp ceviche $3,oo US. Or "Mixto Ceviche" (all kind of seafood mixed in one) for $ 4.ooUS! This is still the cheap Ecuador we knew sometime ago, where you can still eat a decent meal for as low as $ 4,oo US. A GREAT PLACE TO EAT TASTY ECUADORIAN FOOD IS COMEDOR (GRILL) "ESTELITA" on corner right on beach street close to main big park (the one with skateboard park now) Try here the grilled marlin fish at night or the chicken is fantastic also the shrimp al ajillo (garlic) is just unbelievably good and cheap $6. On the main beach of town you will see the local restaurants. These are small eating places where you will get typical foods from $0.80 cts to $3, if desiring to be fancy; 8 dollars for lobsters or jumbo shrimp! One plate worth trying is the "Shrimp and rice", also the "Cazuela" (local seafood casserole) and the "Pata de Mula" (black mangrove cockle) ceviche, also the "Encebollado "PICANTERIA "EL TIBURON" (tuna, manioc with tomato and onion broth served hot). CAREFUL WHERE YOU EAT AS CERTAIN PLACES ARE NOT THAT CLEAN.

ABOUT THE RENTAL SUITE

Our apartment is available for rental on a daily $100, weekly $400, monthly variesbetween $800 to $1100 or longer term basis. It is suitable for a single for family or single. A single parent with a small child would also work. Have two bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, lounge, and balcony. It is in a very nice private complex “Las Carabelas De Colon” next to the beach with swimming pool, tennis court, parking.

Playas is located about 55 miles west of Guayaquil, which is Ecuador’s major seaport and a jumping off point for the Gal?pagos Islands. It has a brand spanking new modern airport; and the drive from the airport to Playas takes about an hour and a half. We can arrange to meet you at the airport (for a reasonable fee) or you can take a taxi or a bus to Playas. I recommend the first option. If you are staying for a while, you can get around Ecuador economically by bus or air. The adult bus fare from Guayaquil to Playas, for example, costs a whopping US$2.40 (that comes to about four cents a mile). You also have the option of a tour of the Galapagos, and Machu Picchu in Peru is a bit of a hike, but it is one of the wonders of the world.
