Welcome to Ecuador

Find homes, land for sale, tropical oceanfront properties, and affordable places to retire. Ecuador´s got it all.

Located in northwestern South America between Colombia and Peru, Ecuador is home to some 11 million residents.  Its political capital city is Quito, but its largest commercial (and port) city is Guayaquil with over 2 million people.  The country straddles the equator, from which it derives its name.

The civilian democracy in place and the adoption of the US dollar as the country’s legal tender have contributed to Ecuador rapid ascension in the past decade.  Ecuador is consistently named one of the top retirement destinations in the world, but many young professionals are expatriating to Ecuador for the same reasons – there is no country in the hemisphere that offers such a high level of infrastructure coupled with such a low cost of living.

While Guayaquil and Manta both look poised for steady long term economic growth over the next few decades, it is the beaches of Olón and Bahia, the mountain landscapes of Cotacachi, and the colonial charm of Cuenca and Quito that tend to garner the most attention from the international community. 

We work with Ecuador´s top real estate agents to provide you access to Ecuador´s top properties.  If you have any questions, please don´t hesitate to contact us.

Life always comes with its own surprises and opportunities.  You travel your path, and make the journey your own.  There is no better path to take than one that leads to the beach, so take the time to stroll onto the grounds of this spectacular property, with a paved path directly to the beach in Punta Blanca.  A sprawling 6,600 square feet of construction, in two stories, houses the owner's quarters, as well as, seven separate suites, which surround and overlook a beautiful pool and patio area.  You have to see this property to believe it.  The massive main living area has an open concept design, with exposed wood beam ceiling, and warm wood accents, so this huge area still has a cozy, inviting ambiance.  Walls of windows and sliding glass doors keep the entire area light, and provide seamless indoor/outdoor living.  The enormous kitchen features custom wooden cabinets, sleek granite counter tops, expansive tiled back splash, stainless steel range and oven with a large, dark Tuscan farmhouse style range hood.  The kitchen also boasts a large counter-height island with granite top, and an attached bar-height wood breakfast bar that easily seats six.  There is also a dining table nearby with additional banquette seating, along with rustic chairs and stools, in keeping with the farmhouse chic décor.  The main living area has a beautiful guest bathroom, with a unique vanity with the look of beach bleached wood, a substantial vessel sink, and whimsical decorative accents of shells, starfish, and sea fans.  From this main living area, you ascend the staircase to the amazing master suite, which features vaulted ceilings with more open wood beams.  This master suite is massive, with its own private kitchenette, living area with comfy sofa and chairs, and an exercise area, with sliding glass doors that lead to a huge private balcony.  A small privacy screen defines these sections from the large sleeping area.  Just beyond the bed is a space dedicated to the bathtub area, built within a unique wooden step-up frame, and surrounded by windows (with privacy shades) so you can relax in the oversized jacuzzi while enjoying the fabulous views.  Also annexed to the sleeping area is an enormous dressing area and walk-in closet.  In fact, “walk-in closet” does not do this justice!  These are also accessible to the master bathroom, with a private commode, vanity with vessel sink and an oversized glass-enclosed shower. Downstairs, also in this main living area, is a large pantry, storage area, and laundry room with washer and dryer. Just steps from the sliding glass doors of the kitchen, living, and dining rooms, is the beautiful pool and patio area.  Covered with attractive paving, the poolside area is spacious, with patio tables and chairs, as well as, lounge chairs for sunbathing.  Landscape and hardscape complement one another, creating a colorful and tropical atmosphere, with palm trees, vibrant bougainvillea, potted plants, and statuary.  At one end of the good-sized pool, is a pergola with intertwined foliage providing shade to the step-down bar to tend the built-in swim-up bar in the pool – an amenity usually only seen in exclusive resorts!  At the opposite end of the pool is a canopied outdoor spa day bed, and at the side of the pool is a large hot tub. This pool area also features an outdoor shower, and a convenient bathroom accessed from the patio.  The wide veranda, with red tile roofing, runs along the length of each wing of the house, creating wonderful areas for an outdoor dining table that sits 10 easily, as well as, comfy sofas and benches.  This entire compound was designed to make the most of family spending quality time together! Extending from the main part of the house is the wing containing seven complete suites.  Each suite has its own kitchenette, a large bed, a sofa bed, and en-suite full bathroom.  There are four suites on the ground floor, with sliding glass doors to access the pool and patio area, and three more suites on the upper level, each with a balcony overlooking the lovely pool and grounds.  Each suite has its own décor theme.  Family and guests can enjoy time together and still have needed privacy.  Just beyond one of the gates, is a small, green park, shared by this property and two others.  This park has a paved pathway that leads directly to a broad, sandy beach, perfect for building sand castles with the children during the day, and romantic sunset walks in the evening.  This amazing family compound sits on 14,757 square feet of land.  All of this – yes, ALL of this – is available to rent for only $1,000 per night.  What an amazing holiday your family will have with this magnificent property.  Call us today and find out if your next vacation follows this path to the beach!

3.36 ha (8.30 acre)

Located 25 minutes from Malacatos, 35 from Vilcabamba and an hour from Loja sits nearly 3.4 hectares (8.4 acres) of organically cultivated super foods with a steel house taking advantage of the stunning mountain views. This is a warmer, dryer climate, great for health. The property features thousands of Moringa plants and a variety of organic super foods such as; French peanuts, almonds, ciruela, mandarin, guayaba, quingra, alfalfa, clover, carrots, sweet potato, corn, figs, mango, zapote, blackberry, grapes, oranges, lemons, grapefruit, pomegranate, dragon fruit, avocado, passion fruit, sugarcane, papaya, poma rosa, banana and many more. The property is intersected by an extremely low-traffic tiny dirt road. The bottom section has the house and the majority of the fruit trees as well as a drying facility for the moringa. This section is mostly flat, however there is an undeveloped sloped section, which could be used for further construction, cultivation or subdivided and sold. The entire property is equipped with gravity fed drip irrigation system. The water comes from a pure mountain spring and arrives at the property via a constantly flowing 4” pipe (meaning more water than could ever be used) to several backup water storage tanks. The upper section, which is also flat, features the Moringa, a massive chicken coop, enough to raise thousands of chickens, some papaya interspersed as well as the water tanks. There are several more amazing spots for additional houses. The property has been kept completely organic since it was planted. The house, which was expertly handcrafted (mostly welded) by the current owner features a workshop downstairs which could easily be converted into a bedroom and a kitchen/living space upstairs with a beautiful wrap around iron balcony. Perhaps the most special aspect of the property are the views, the property looks out over seemingly endless mountains and valleys including into Podocarpus National Park where there are nearly daily rainbows and the sight of rain moving through the mountains. The property also features its own year-round mineral spring for an additional water source. While already hooked up to electric, this is a perfect area for solar to be completely off-grid and self-sufficient. $118,000 Nº Ref: LOJCHI6 www.abecuador.com +593 980748925 (Whatsapp)
