Montanita is a beautiful surf town that has many options for the traveler. If you want to party, you chose the right place, but if you want to surf it is one of the best places in Ecuador. The area allows one to choose your experience: zen/yoga/nature, party like it;s 1999 and surf/eat sleep/repeat. Montanita is a special place.

Salinas is a small beach town good for a few days of relaxation with ample options for lodging and food. But not much to offer with respect to tourist attraction..The beach itself is calm with many vendors and umbrellas during the day, but the beach sand and water are not like the ones you will see in the Caribbean or Mexico tourist destinations. The town is lively on weekends with families from other towns.

The location was ideal, offering a lovely view and a very welcoming atmosphere. It had everything we needed – a nice garden, a jacuzzi, and direct beach access – so we rarely had to go out, except to pick up a few essentials. The host was extremely helpful throughout our stay.

Great quiet little community. Plenty of restaurants, coffee shops and shopping available. Watched the surfers from the beach. Great walking beach that goes on forever. Everything is within walking distance, no need for a vehicle. Taxi to the next closest town was $2.00.

I like visiting Montanita but wouldn't want to stay much longer than 4-5 days. Thee's not enough to do--unless you are in love with the beach! There are excellent food options and the Tia tienda provides options for cooking on your own. The beach is SUPERB!

It's just too crowded and the air is very polluted. If you like big city life then you'll like Salinas. But if you want a place where you can just relax on the beach, this is not that place. Beaches are VERY crowded, lots of background noise. Honestly the air pollution here is horrible for a peninsula. It smells like Newark, New Jersey.

It is amazing beach and surf town on the Ecuador coast. Frankly I can’t get enough, with festive atmosphere, restaurants and artists, great sandy beaches with popular surf breaks. Trips and trails inland and spectacular wildlife from pelicans and many various birds to iguanas and a herd of cattle that wander through town and the beach. A colorful and unique experience for any adventurers.

Even though the address of El Faro is technically Salinas, it's really about 8 miles from the city center, and my only excursions into town were for dinner. I had no complaints about the quality of the food, which is generally excellent, but Salinas itself has very little charm, since it's more of a beach community for people from Guayaquil. If I return to the area, I will make a point of heading further north on the coast, to slightly more remote, quiet places (NOT Montañitas).
