When you walk into Salt Water Heals, Everything there will be a small kitchenette. Then, a giant mural painted by artist Iliana from Thessaloniki, Grease, walks past the bedroom’s bamboo divider. She painted another incredible mural above the bed. Walkout on the Balcony overlooking the beautiful mother’s park and peer through the trees to see the Chone estuary.

The space
Giant murals and artwork created by artists from over 125 countries in the heart of a small quiet beach town Bahia de Caraquez just minutes away from the white sand beach on the Rio Chone Estuary and the Pacific Ocean. Catfish & Flounder(our black labradors)will greet and welcome you when you arrive.

Seriously what is this place? This place is the chilliest Boutique Hostel in Ecuador, CoCo Bongo in Bahia de Caraquez. Rated in Culture Trip Top 10 in Ecuador and the perfect spot to run away from the hustle and bustle of the big cities and get out the flip fop and breath in the salt air.

Looking to make the leap and move to Ecuador, and this is an exploratory trip? CoCo Bongo has excellent options for extended stays, property tour packages, and various cultural day tours. In addition, CoCo Bongo is an Expat hub and a great place to get information on coastal Ecuador and the rest of the country. So come and relax in living art and walk barefoot in the sand.

Other things to note
There are three adorable dogs living on the property: Flounder, Catfish, and Tuna. They’re very friendly and always happy to say hello.
