“What strikes me most is the contrast: a peaceful escape just steps from Manta's port city bustle. The thoughtful design extends from comfortable bungalows to modern suites, with convenient access to both the beach and the adjacent shopping mall. It's a family-friendly place, and a particularly good choice for wellness, with a full-service spa.”
