Verified For like 1/10 the cost per day of a similar spot in Bali or Hawaii you get a spot less than a minute walk from one of the most underrated waves. Possibly the best place to stay in Canoa. Additionally host is a wonderful surf/SUP instructor.Verified I spent a bit over 2 months in this fabulous place, so close to the sea, restaurants and the most amazing sunsets. The place is super clean and my favourite spot, def the roof terrace with the hammock. Perfect for a glass of wine in the evening. To watch the sunset and listen to the sea. It is such a peaceful place. Just what I needed to work remotely while also enjoying the fine life by the sea amongst locals and such friendly people. Janna also made my stay more fun. She is a fantastic host. Friday and Saturday nights are a bit more lively with music from the beach bars. It did not bother me. I enjoyed the summer vibes. This really is a place to unwind and calm down. With the option to be super active and go surfing or discovering the beautiful surroundings or simply walk on the beach, have a cocktail or healthy freshly squeezed fruit shakes and the most amazing food, with amazing value/price. Overall it's exceeded my expectations in every way. Can only highly recommend! Thank youVerified El lugar es hermoso, rústico, bien ubicado, seguro, rodeado de gente amigable, se puede acceder a la playa rápidamente, las tiendas están muy cerca, conseguimos parqueadero seguro en la vecindad. Nos habría gustado que el baño tenga mayor privacidad y que el dormitorio de la tercera planta tenga muebles de dormir más cómodos.Verified My friend and I rented for a month and we felt so at home in Janna's place. The Bamboo House has multiple apartments so you've got built-in, friendly neighbors and adorable dogs and cats roaming around on the balconies. Janna gave us so many recommendations, arranged tours and transport for us, gave us surf lessons, and connected us with a bunch of really cool people living in and around Canoa! The private third-floor balcony is absolute bliss, the kitchen has everything you'd need, we got fresh fruit delivered to our door every day and the AC is heavenly.All in all a 10/10 stay!!Verified I absolutely loved my time in Canoa and it is in great part thanks to Janna. She ensured I had a memorable experience with great suggestions, showing me around, and advice for the area. She was always responsive and met me at my bus to ensure a smooth check in. I arrived late and she had water and a huge watermelon upon arrival which was so great. The location could not be beat, it’s a block from the beach. You do need to be agile for the stairs and the noise on the weekends is clearly stated. Janna kindly proactively provided ear plugs though the noise did not bother me. The mosquito netting for the bed is one of the best I’ve had so far. To note: there is no ATM in Canoa so you must be prepared in advance. The rustic home is very welcoming and had everything I needed and more thanks to Janna. She also assisted me with scheduling a very early morning cab to catch a flight out of Manta. I’d return for sure and in fact hope to!Verified Very rustic decor!!Verified Janna was great from the start to the end. Extremely friendly and responsive host! The place was awesome! I really enjoyed the rooftop terrace in the evenings! Would definitely recommend this stay to any of my friends!Verified We had a lovely stay at Jannas little House. It’s very nice designed and has everything you need. We loved that it was very close to the beach and we also loved the terrace on the top floor. Keep in mind that it can get louder at the weekend, as it is written in the description. The communication with Janna was great, she’s a great host and will help you with all your questions.Airbnb rating score: 4.6 of 5, based on 32 reviews
