Hotel Kundalini

Hotel in Montañita

Only a 2-minute walk from Montañita downtown, Hotel Kundalini offers large green areas and is located right in front of the sea shore.

The Hotel Kundalini exceeded my expectations in so many ways. I am a solo female traveler who was in Montañita to visit my American father who lives there and I was just so pleased with my decision to stay here for the whole 10 days (with two separate reservations). The grounds are breathtaking; being right on the beach surrounded by lush plants and flowers was so relaxing. The room was impeccably clean, the shower hot and with good pressure, and the bed was so so comfortable - pillows too! The sauna was a fabulous amenity to be able to enjoy - I did twice! I also booked a massage through them and the gentleman who was my therapist was professional, had the right amount of pressure and made me feel like I was walking on clouds for the rest of the day. My favorite part of this stay might have been the breakfast though! It was ample, varied and delicious - and showcased local recipes and ingredients. I tried all of the 6 that they offer, and when I arrived at my favorites they even let me substitute ham for avocado (I prefer to eat vegetarian in most cases). The fruit medley was ripe, varied and a lovely way to start each meal. The coffee and hot milk is free flowing and the juices change every day.  Sitting there, every morning, enjoying breakfast and watching the waves of the Pacific ocean crash onto the long long beach while reading a book was simply paradise. Last, but definitely not least, the staff was so so nice and accommodating. They helped me with so many things (like lending me a yoga mat or calling me taxis daily), were very friendly and so willing to modify things to make me happy. I really do expect to stay with them whenever I visit my Dad and I recommend that you do too if you are weighing your options for where to stay in Montañita. Hotel Kundalini is a tranquil little oasis in the middle of a bustling and high energy town, and you won't regret calling it home for a little while.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Hotel Oro Manta! From the moment we arrived, the entire staff made us feel so welcome. Every single team member greeted us warmly and always had a smile, creating a truly friendly and inviting atmosphere. The staff consistently went above and beyond to make sure our time there was special. A highlight was being greeted by the chef, who personally invited us to join a family activity whenever we wanted—it was such a thoughtful and personal touch! Even after we had checked out, the team continued to go the extra mile. My daughter had lost her beloved snorkeling gear, and they not only found it but also arranged to deliver it back to us. Moments like these show their genuine care and dedication to guests. We can’t recommend Hotel Oro Manta enough for their warmth, friendliness, and exceptional service. They truly make you feel like part of their family!

I can completely say that I speak from experience and knowledge about this city. I'd lived in Manta, Manabi, Ecuador from December 1, 2003, until late June 2013. I felt that Manta was the lost jewel that I'd always been looking for. The city was bustling with commerce during the day and at night it came alive with fiestas and parties. The club scene was outstanding and little to no violence. Of course, they had the criminal element, but they knew to stay on their turf and not venture outward. The beaches were always alive and restaurants outstanding. I love the city and I go back often to visit my Godson and his family. Now, let's fast forward to 20 years later and the here and now. Since the uprising in Venezuela that led to the migration of their criminals to Ecuador and the corruption of the government of Ecuador since the presidency of President Correa ended, it has been a free for all of crime and violence. They have allowed illegals to enter and ravish the City of Manta, bringing their prostitution, drugs, and violent crime to a once peaceful and bustling city. No one, not even the police are doing something about it. Hence, la policia acostada, the term means the police laying down. I would visit Cuenca if I wanted to vacation in Ecuador or Guayaquil, but Guayaquil is much more down the drain than Manta. It is shameful what corruption and evil can do to a place. Now, you have it, the truth unfolded. My last time in Manta was May 19 thru June 1, 2023. The good people of Manta are still the best people on the planet. I feel so sorry for the situation that they are in.

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.

David is a huge asset to the hotel. He knows and loves the area and is happy to help with any information or advice to make your trip better. The hotel is a beautiful property and all the staff were awesome. The beaches are beautiful, not too crowded, and only a block from the hotel. We didn’t get to explore Tonsupa, but Atacames is a short taxi ride with a lot going on.

There were many restaurants with good food, fresh seafood especially! There are many agents selling tours for whale watching, snorkling, skin diving, park tours and all sorts of recreational activities. Lots of small shops with tourist items. The whale season is local winter so the temperature is cooler than most expect. It gets down to 69F or 20C at night. The wind makes it feel cooler. The small motorcycle rickshaws are called "motors" and serve as taxis. The currency is US dollars and $1-$1.50 gets you anywhere in town.

Atacames is a fairly normal Ecuadorian Beach town. A nice, if comercial 'boardwalk' along the beach, the Malecon, and about 10 by 20 blocks of town behind it. Lots of choice for dining and shopping. The beach is clean and wide, the ocean a treat. Activities are available at not unstandard prices.
