About this property
Beachfront Condo; Infinity Pool; 2 Bdrm ;2 Bath; Plus Gorgeous Views
Playa Dorada is a 6 unit gated condo development north of Bahia de Caraquez and about 5 km south of Canoa, Ecuador. The condos sit directly on the beach. Simply unlock the gate and the beach is there. Sitting on the balcony, enjoy the view of the ocean, the locals bringing in their catch, spectacular sunsets and a beautiful infinity pool which appears to drop into the Pacific Ocean.
Our fully air conditioned second floor, 2 bedroom, 2 bath luxury condo has a maximum capacity of 4 people and a minimum age of 13 years.
The condo comes complete with a fully equipped kitchen, linens, washer, dryer, high speed internet, flat screen smart TV (no TV service, for computer use) and hair dryer.
Next to the infinity pool is a covered gazebo complete with a propane BBQ, tables, chairs and a sink with running water. Enjoy cooking with low cost shrimp & fish from the local fishermen and an abundant supply of vegetables from the markets. Relax around the pool and enjoy the sunshine and tropical vegetation.
The condo and grounds are non smoking.
Electrical plug ins are 110 V, as in North America.
Plumbing in our condo is to North American standard so toilet paper may be flushed down the toilet.

About the host
Hosted by Peggy Galbraith
We currently live near Calgary, Alberta, Canada and had been looking for many years at international properties. We were looking for certain criteria such as inexpensive living, infrastructure, medical and of course, the weather.
Why they chose this property
We chose Playa Dorada because of it's location and size. There are only 6 condo units so you never have to feel crowded in the infinity pool. You just cannot beat being right on the beach and the sunsets are amazing. We also liked that the developer was American and built to American plumbing standards.
What makes this property unique
Warm Pacific Ocean water, miles of beach to walk and bus transportation right outside of our property make this property location perfect.
