There's a lot do in Ayampe and Manabí!
Hear from some of our long-term guests what they love about La Casa and what draws them back.

La Casa is a place that is very special to me. The hostel is situated right on the sand overlooking the magical Pacific horizon, framed by the two rocks that define the Ayampe coast. The atmosphere cannot get better than this!
Ayampe is an unspoiled surf village with an amazing and eclectic community. It is small enough and simple enough, not overcrowded like nearby towns of Puerto Lopez or Montañita, with just the right amount of development and mix of local and international flavors.
La Casa is my favorite place to stay because Jose, Arian, and Ellie made me feel like part of the family right from the start. Every time I stay at La Casa I meet the new guests and add members to my family.
La Casa has created a very special environment, characteristic of the village of Ayampe itself, warm, authentic and open-hearted.

I’ve been traveling around the world for four-and-a-half years straight, and Ayampe is still one of my favorites, and I am so grateful I got to stay here at La Casa. I thought I would stay there for 2-3 months and I ended up staying 10.
It’s one of very few places I’ve actually considered going back to live again, and I’ve been to many amazing places over the past few years.
If you get the chance, definitely stay in Ayampe for at least a few weeks and let it soak in.

I have traveled in several different countries around the world, stayed in countless different places and to date La Casa is one my favorite places to stay.
Ayampe is a great place to surf, relax, and make new friends, and La Casa is a great place to stay for longer term guests who want to escape to Ayampe for a taste of the good life.
