Casa Shaka — Peaceful Surf Retreat in La Punta, Montañita

Welcome to Casa Shaka, a tropical two-suite beach house tucked away in La Punta, Montañita’s peaceful surf enclave. Steps from the waves yet removed from the bustle of town, Casa Shaka blends coastal comfort with laid-back Ecuadorian charm.

The property features two bright, self-contained suites:

Top-Floor Loft with Ocean Breezes — an airy space with bamboo ceilings, balcony, and ocean views.

Cozy Beach-Level Suite with Garden Views — a tranquil ground-floor retreat surrounded by tropical greenery.

Each suite includes a kitchenette, strong Wi-Fi, work desk, and private bathroom, along with access to hammocks, outdoor seating, and beach cruisers for exploring the coast.

Guests love the peaceful energy, friendly surf-town vibe, and the ability to walk barefoot to one of Ecuador’s best surf breaks in under a minute. Whether you’re here to catch waves, work remotely, or simply slow down and soak up the sunshine, Casa Shaka is your home by the sea.
