The property is roughly two hours away by car from Guayaquil International Airport, with the hotel providing regular shuttle services for guests. Visitors can reach the resort conveniently using scheduled transport.
From June through October, visitors can watch humpback whales from their balconies or the beach as these marine mammals migrate along Ecuador's coast. This yearly migration makes the resort a place where ocean life appears regularly.
