Beachfront Property for Sale in Puerto Cayo, Ecuador – 6-Bedroom Oceanfront Home with Guest House

Puerto Cayo, Jipijapa, Manabí, Ecuador

Overview

Wait till you see this stunning beachfront home, located on the incredibly long and sandy beach of Puerto Cayo. This 6 bedroom, 4 bathroom home (plus an additional 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom in the separate guard house) is an opportunity you don’t want to pass on. Built in 2003, it offers a serene, semi-private beachfront experience nearly every day of the year.

Previously used as a guest house on Airbnb with excellent reviews, this property has proven potential to generate solid rental income—whether rented by the room or as a full property. The first floor features a spacious open kitchen and living area with direct views of the beach, along with 2 bedrooms and a generously sized bathroom. A chimney adds charm for cooler nights, and a covered patio and sweet sitting pool—which can be converted into a jacuzzi—offer perfect places to relax. Between the house and the ocean, there’s a palapa-style cabana with hammocks, perfect for soaking in the beach vibes. The home is being sold furnished, making it move-in or rental-ready.

One of the property’s standout features is its panoramic view of three islands: Isla de la Plata, Islote de Cayo, and Isla Sombrerito/Viuda. It is also one of the rare beachfront homes with direct access to the main Ruta del Spondylus, offering quick and easy access to nearby cities and coastal attractions. Unlike other properties that sacrifice either road or beach access, this one offers both, giving it a clear advantage in location and convenience.

Located 30 minutes from Puerto Lopez—famous for whale-watching tours, island excursions, and great restaurants—and also 30 minutes from Jipijapa, a town known for its coffee culture and nearby tourist attractions like Playa Los Frailes, the Agua Blanca Museum, and sulfur hot springs. The property borders Parque Nacional Machalilla, and is just 45 minutes from Manta, a major port city with an airport, hospitals, malls, and more.
