Imagine waking up every morning to an unobstructed panorama of Salinas Beach and the sparkling Pacific Ocean. Perched on the 5th floor of Edificio Sotavento, right on the Malecón in one of Ecuador’s most beloved Pacific Coast destinations, this exceptional 1,722-square-foot condominium offers an enviable combination of space, style, and an extraordinary beachfront lifestyle.
From the moment you enter, the expansive ocean view commands attention. Sliding glass doors span virtually the entire width of the living area, creating a spectacular wall of glass that brings the beach, ocean, sky, and ever-changing activity of Salinas right into your home. Keep a pair of binoculars nearby—you may spot migrating whales passing offshore! Below, the vibrant energy of Salinas Beach becomes part of your daily scenery, with swimmers, paddleboarders, jet skis, banana boats, and sun-seekers enjoying the water just steps from your front door.
Inside, the spacious open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas create an inviting environment for both relaxed everyday living and entertaining. A generous sectional sofa is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the magnificent ocean views throughout the day, while a striking modern waterfall-style Parson’s dining table comfortably seats six and provides yet another place to enjoy the view. A built-in buffet cabinet offers convenient storage for serving pieces, special dishes, and linens. The sleek, contemporary kitchen is separated from the living and dining areas by an attractive peninsula topped with a gleaming countertop featuring beautiful marble veining. A wide stainless-steel gas range, refrigerator, abundant cabinetry, and built-in shelving provide both style and functionality. The dramatic black cabinetry gives the kitchen a sophisticated, modern character, while pantry storage and a cleverly designed laundry niche with a stacked washer and dryer make excellent use of the available space.
The master bedroom is a centerpiece of this remarkable home. Originally designed as a three-bedroom condominium, the owners combined two bedrooms to create an exceptionally large and luxurious master suite—giving the room an expansive sense of space rarely found in a beachfront condo. There is ample room for a large bed, beautifully dressed with deep blue bedding and framed by a custom tufted upholstered headboard and footboard in sumptuous gold fabric. Beyond the sleeping area, the suite offers plenty of space for a comfortable sitting and entertainment area, complete with a sofa, stylish credenza, and flat-screen television. The spacious master bathroom continues the sophisticated design with a large vanity featuring a dark base and marble-look countertop, complemented by a distinctive dark vessel sink. The oversized shower features a graduated wall of glass blocks that allows natural light to enter while maintaining a practical barrier to keep water contained within the shower. And there is an added bonus for those who desire three bedrooms: when the owners combined the two original bedrooms, they thoughtfully retained the door to the former bedroom. Converting the condominium back to its original three-bedroom configuration could therefore be accomplished relatively easily.
The remaining bedroom is comfortably furnished with a queen-size bed and bedside table and includes a good-sized closet. A second beautifully appointed full bathroom is conveniently located for both the bedroom and the main living areas, making it ideal for guests.
This exceptional condominium is being sold fully furnished, making it an appealing choice for someone looking for a turnkey beachfront home, vacation retreat, or investment property. A designated parking space in the attached parking area is also included.
The beach is literally outside your door. The ocean is your ever-changing backdrop. And whales, sunsets, water sports, and the lively rhythm of Salinas are all part of the view. This is beachfront living at its most spacious, stylish, and inviting—and at a fantastic price point, it is an opportunity you won’t want to miss.
