Anybody know a good place to put an add for my Hotel for sale? Here is the stats if interested,

Do you want to live in Ecuador and have a permanent income? This is the property for you!

This 2.4 hectares of prime real estate is located on a cliff above one of the northern coast's most pristine beaches. The property is one-half kilometer from the main road with a newly-build right of way. The land is cleared with a fence around the perimeter and located within a gated community for safety. The property has private beach access, a 12 foot waterfall and water hole, and a newly planted orchard featuring 15 different types of fruits. From pomegranates and grapefruits to manadrins and starfruit, this sweet paradise is ripe with potential.

There is a five story hotel/home with a roof top terrace. The structure is six months old and complete with all electric and plumbing systems. There are seven bedrooms and seven full bathrooms. The hotel was designed to easily house the owners; the 5th floor has a large kitchen/dining area, private bath, and a large room with incredible ocean/jungle views. The 4th floor was designed as a bridal floor with a master suite with ocean views from the bathtub! The 2nd and 3rd floors are the large rental rooms with oversized bathrooms. The first floor has a large reception area, a restaurant kitchen, eating area and laundry room. On the rooftop terrace is a cold tub for relaxing on hot days and enjoying the sun set over the Pacific Ocean. This place is ready for your finishing touches just the way you want it!

Love adventure?

The perimeter of the property is lined with jungle with possibilities of hiking trails past waterways and waterfalls. Stand admist thousands of big blue butterflies as they make their way to their next destination. Listen in the morning for the neighborhood's flock of parakeets. Pelicans glide past in formation and deepsea dive at dinner time. Watch closely and spot a toucan. Hop in a fisherman's boat and get a close up view of the humpback whales during mating season. Or better yet, have a panoramic view of the dancing whales from the rooftop terrace! Surf the waves in the front of Estero del Platano where there are no lines to wait! Stroll the beach for miles where you will be met by only the local women fishing for octopus to sell to the local eateries. Dolphins and seals frequent these waters and baby sea turtles can be observed as they race to sea. This property lies within the Marine Reserve where the waterways are protected. With a diverse marine life, scuba diving in these parts would surely be an adventure! The national park of Mache-Chindul is minutes away. White water rafting is only 3 hours away in Santo Domingo.

Located along the Galera-SanFransisco Peninsula, this property is in a prime area where tourism is increasing exponentially. If you are in the market to start a hospitality business in Ecuador, this place is well on its way. Build more ocean side cabanas on the edge of a beautiful cliff...sell a part of land for quick profit...grow a cash crop on the open land...contract with corporations for employee retreats...rent out the whole place for weddings and other specials occasions. There are endless possibilities for this property.

TMI if you're not going to tell us the price.
How much are you asking...

Luna 2,

The property sounds exciting and unique.

I suggest a bit of tweaking.  If you're open to a few ideas

    --  Move up a phrase such as "75 minutes from Esmeraldas Intl. Airport" to the first or second graph so we understand it is accessible and get a better idea of where it is on the long EC coast.

    -- You're from the U.S. and yet you know what "2.4 hectares" of land encompasses.  But most of us estadounidenses have no idea.  Use acres as well to describe land area.

    -- Although we still don't know the asking price, we presume it's significant.  In setting up the reader for a big sale, you should tell us more about the principal(s).  Put it in the listing (and-or revise your expat-blog profile) to say more than that you are an expat from USA in Ecuador.  The listing could indicate if you are the owner, broker or what. 

    -- Attention to Detail department:  SpellChecking of the following words is indicated:  manadrins, admist, newly-build, San Fransisco, add.  Reference www.spellcheck.net

    How is this a selling point:  "3 hours from white water rafting"...

    This post is meant to be supportive.  Good luck with your sale.

That's a nice looking piece of land Luna. Agree with ccmedia about putting both hectares, and acres. It might help to try and get a few more pictures of the land, and surrounding areas like the waterfall etc. You could probably drop a few of the pictures of the structure. Some of them aren't really of much relevance, and don't accentuate the property and gorgeous views (in my opinion).

Enjoyed reading your blogs. Sounds like you have gone through a whole list of emotions the past few years in Ecuador.
