Finca Punta Ayampe, near Puerto Lopez, Ecuador

Surrounded by lush greenery with outstanding views of the Pacific, Finca Punta Ayampe welcomes you to a place where sprawling jungle meets ocean beaches. The beautiful bamboo lodge sits tucked away in a tropical hillside cove, but numerous balconies and windows boast spectacular views of the crashing waves. This unique combination is the perfect recipe for relaxation.

Finca Punta Ayampe has been offering the traveller a serene place to unwind since the year 2000. Constructed from guadúa, (similar to bamboo) and designed and crafted by local builders, the lodge prides itself on sustainability and simplicity, with a touch of style. The open floor plan, towering ceilings, local modern art, and central hearth make the lodge as warm and inviting as can be. With this relaxing atmosphere, you won´t want to leave, except to maybe stroll along the cleanest stretch of beach in Ayampe, just a 5 minute walk down the path.

All in all, this is the perfect place to treat yourself, and still within the backpacker´s budget! You will leave with only one regret - that you couldn't stay longer.

Facilities...
The lodge offers four beautiful upstairs rooms with vaulted ceilings and private bathrooms. Two of the rooms include balconies with a sea-view. These rooms sleep 2 to 4 people and cost $12 per person.

Three private cabins are also available, each with their own balcony and of course, spectacular view. The cabins sleep up to six people and cost $15 per person.
