La posada del sueco accommodation in General Villamil Playas is a lovely exotic, romantic little hostel/ hotel in front of the beach in Ecuador, an unforgettable vacational hideaway from it all with an relaxing/tranquil environment.
Our hostel/hotel property has a lovely tropical garden with many variations of exotic flowers, cactuses and different fruit trees. The Hostel, cabins and rooms is built in European and exotic style design, built in hand made bricks and wood with small stylish ceramics here and there, the roofs are covered with exotic dried palm leaves. Everything together makes the place very warm and welcoming.
If you are looking for a resting time, you can enjoy our hammock house over looking the beach or use our relaxing swimming pool surrounded by tropical flowers with a fountain waterfall. But if what you are looking for, is a little more party time, you can also drink a refreshing cocktail or a cold beer in our little rustic music bar built in wood and bamboo, meanwhile you also enjoy a great view over the beach and ocean. In the evening you can enjoy a nice family time barbecuing together in our big covered BBQ area overlooking the tropical garden and pool. Next to it we also have cold pool showers and a toilet.

As most recreative and sport activities here, you can find very good surfing spots or you can rent a horse and ride on the beach enjoying a lovely romantic sunset on the enormous endless beach for an hour or longer for around $10. Or maybe relax your body and enjoy the beach on sun chairs and parasol for $3 -$8 for a day.
Whale watching: From June to August, the humpback whales chose the Ecuadorian coast to do a special dance of love, and to conquer the female and complete the reproduction circle. Also the humpback babies get birth here, and learn how to swim next to the mother. Its possible for the tourist to take special tours from Playas to go further out on the ocean and be part of this amazing nature's miracle.
Dolphin watching: Near to Playas (just 14 km) is located Puerto El Morro, where the adventure with dolphins is starting... This is a little town next to a special bay where these marvelous animals learned how to share with humans. They usually escort, as a special company, the small boats sailing on this sweet/salty water. You can also rent these boats to go some place called Bird Island for bird watching, and in the way you can also ask for sport fishing.
Sadly, this hostel has closed.

Location and Contact
Location
• La Posada del sueco is located in Playas, next to Pacific Ocean, where you can find very long beaches, but this one is particularly long, more than 14 kilometers makes it one of the longest ones in the country. The temperature and moister, the sun and the wind, as much as the warm ocean water all over the year made Unesco to select this town as the second best weather in the world a few years ago.
• Playas is not far from one of the two international airports in Ecuador, located in Guayaquil, we are just one hour of distance driving your car through a brand new high way. Once in Playas, you can find many kind of services, only 800 meters from us in front of the beach you have a new super mall with different stores,restaurants,cinema theaters, pharmacy etc and in the center you have hospital, Fish and fruit market and taxis. By the beach there are many small restaurants with Ecuadorian typical local food mostly coming fresh from the ocean 7 days a week.
