We all know that the beach can provide a sense of escape from daily routines and responsibilities, but did you know that there are scientific reasons why being near the beach helps relieve stress and anxiety? Not only is the smell of the ocean air soothing and calming, the ocean’s sights and sounds stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for relaxation and reducing stress. But, as the old saying goes, “Wait! There’s more!” The ocean releases negative ions into the air, which can counteract the positive ions emitted by electronic devices and other sources. These negative ions can increase oxygen flow to the brain, boosting alertness, reducing drowsiness, and promoting relaxation. Wow! It is almost as if a doctor should prescribe this fantastic property for you. Located in the best residential area of Punta Blanca, on Ecuador’s Ruta del Sol – “Route of the Sun” – this property is ideal, with space for family and friends. Situated on a 594-square-meter lot, there is an expansive courtyard within the perimeter wall and secure front gate. There are two structures within, one being the three-bedroom, 3-bathroom main house, and the casita consisting of a studio suite with ensuite bathroom, a separate sun room, and a three-car carport. The 1,259-square-foot main house features an expansive covered front porch area, with room for outdoor seating and dining, as well as, a hammock. You enter the air conditioned main house from this inviting space. The living, dining, and kitchen spaces are open to one another, enjoying high, vaulted ceilings with wood beams. The area is kept bright from the natural light streaming through the large picture windows in the kitchen. Lower cabinets provide plenty of storage and counter space, and the peninsula counter has a wood table-height breakfast bar. The master bedroom suite is roomy, with a king-size bed, a chest of drawers, and comfy chair, as well as, sliding glass doors that access the covered front porch. The ensuite master bathroom offers a vanity, toilet, bidet, and full-sized shower. The second bedroom is furnished with a king-size bed, and the third bedroom features two twin beds. Each of these bedrooms has its own ensuite bathroom. The 377-square-foot casita structure has a private suite with a king-size bed, a twin bed, a compact kitchenette, and an ensuite bathroom with vanity, toilet, and shower. This is perfect for visiting friends, or family that want to join you, but would appreciate a bit of privacy or independence, such as in-laws or teens. This studio suite is adjacent to the separate air conditioned sun room, with kitchenette, that boasts two walls of windows and sliding glass doors. This is an attractive and comfortable space to enjoy the activities that are sure to take place in the surrounding courtyard while staying out of the South American sun. Next to the suite is the three-car carport, but the courtyard is so large there is actually room to park 10-23 cars. Speaking of the activities available throughout the courtyard, there is a fun above-ground pool between the main house and the casita that will be enjoyed by children and adults alike! There is also an outdoor canopy creating shade for some outdoor chairs. Nearby is a large covered bamboo gazebo that provides protection for BBQ grills, a bar area with seating for four, and a large dining table with seating for eight. You also have a convenient bathroom with simple shower accessed from the courtyard area. Finally, at one end of the property you will find a set of concrete stairs that lead down to a path to the beach. You are that close to being able to dig your toes into the sand or take a dip in the ocean! This is truly a beach retreat with something to feed each person’s soul.

There is a reason time always seems to fly by when you’re having a great time. Science explains that pleasurable events boost dopamine release, which may lead to a faster perception of time. Also, when you are “in the moment” your attention is directed toward the pleasure you’re experiencing, rather than the passage of time. Here’s the thing about this phenomenon: the bad news may be that time flies, but the good news is YOU are the pilot! You are in charge of navigating your life, so you might as well seek out the best way to spend it. Imagine finding a place where each day can be filled with enjoyment, relaxation, and fun. Now imagine it being within your grasp! The Chipipe neighborhood in Salinas, Ecuador, offers an abundance of opportunities for pleasurable activities, and this affordable condo is located right in the heart of this quiet community. The Chipipe Malecón and one of the most beautiful and family-friendly beaches on Ecuador’s sunny Pacific Coast is just one short block away. The beach fringes a protected bay, so the waves are gentle, perfect for wading, swimming, and water toys, or you can relax in a beach chair under the shade of an umbrella, and enjoy a tropical drink from one of the vendors that stop by. Nearby is the Ecuadorian military base, which is open for visitors to be able to tour the Visitor’s Center at El Morro, walk to the very tip of the Peninsula at La Chocolatera, or utilize one of the tower binocular viewers to get a closer look at the gigantic pinnipeds at La Lobería, the sea lion island! This 1,130-square-foot condo has an open concept living, dining, and kitchen area featuring a full wall of windows at the far end, overlooking the tip of the peninsula – the westernmost point of mainland Ecuador. You have a view of the Pacific all day, but the sunsets will be spectacular. The kitchen has a U-shaped design with sand-colored upper and lower cabinets boasting exquisite granite backsplash and countertops that create a convenient breakfast bar area. There are spaces for a range/oven and refrigerator, and a corner of the kitchen is plumbed for a washer/dryer laundry niche. The master bedroom is spacious and features a large picture window with that same west-facing ocean view. There is also a large, built-in closet and a fully-tiled master bathroom with oversized vanity. The second bedroom is a good size and also has a large built-in closet. A second full bathroom is convenient to both the second bedroom and the main living areas. All the wood work throughout this unit is brand new. The unit is being sold unfurnished so you will be able to create the environment that will be bring the most joy to your life. The condo includes two designated parking spaces in the attached parking garage. Call today and let’s test the theory that time flies when you’re having fun!
