The location was nice with good beach front, away from all the bars and clubs up the beach. Private parking on the premises. Near to good restaurants and had several cozy seating areas around the property. Staff was friendly and tried to be accommodating. Quick check-in, very organized.

The location separated from town is great if you have a car or you are willing to use taxis. The pool is amazing and staff are friendly.

I LOVED the pool! It felt like we were at a resort. The Staff were very attentive and friendly. And, the Jacuzzi was PERFECT! nice and hot for two!!! We plan to return again next month for more.

PL is a very pleasant fishing village in EC on the Pacific ocean. The beach is fabulous and there are many good places to eat. We recommend eating at Ancora. The owners and staff are great. The chef is from Barcelona and makes some original Spanish dishes.
One bit of advice for all these beach villages is eat early to avoid the loud music that fires up as the evening progresses. For some reason they think this extremely loud music is what everyone wants to hear.

There were lots of things to do outside the beach: whale watching, scuba, seeing the monkeys in the Sendero Bola del Oro, bird watching in Ayampe Reserve. In the community el Pital we used Carlos Manrique and it was a great guide - 0982767109 or on Facebook at sendero bola de oro. We went with the Rosita whale watching and they really tried to make sure you got your money's worth of whales, seals, and boobies! It is fun to get up in the morning and watch the fishing boats come back in with the birds fighting the fishermen for their haul! There were so good restaurants depending on your taste - the Hotel Victor Hugo had lots of variety and good desserts; the Il Capuccino pizzería Ristorante had good options and a friendly staff.

Like most travellers in summer we went to Puerto Lopez for Isla de Plata and the whale watching. It's definitely worth a visit as Isla de Plata, the turtles and humpback whales were magnificent.
Unfortunately in summer you only have a few real sunny days. We had one (when we visited Isla de Plata) but the other days were overcasted with sometimes a fine drizzle. Therefore we did not went to visit/see Parque National Machalilla which should be worth a visit as well.

Small beach town with much to do if you are into wildlife exploration.
Even though accommodation options are limited and fairly pricey (I recommend Casita Madame for the best value-for-money), we have stayed in and around Puerto Lopez for over a week, exploring the beaches, Isla de Plata, nearby villages… we go on tours, snorkeling, diving, swimming, hiking— no reason to get bored!
Restaurants are a bit tricky so we switched to accommodation with kitchen pretty soon, but do try Aloha Cafe, Cappuccino (the Italian) or the Colombian place (around the corner from Cappuccino but I forget the exact name).

Puerto Lopez is a great spot to spend a few days and nights.
Puerto Lopez is a great spot to spend a few days and nights. Don't forget to visit Pacha Chocolates and coffee on the E15 north of town. The owners are there and will give a tour if you have 4 people. The day trip to Isle La Plata is a great trip for $45 each but be prepared to walk and climb.

The problem was that it was supposed to be sunny but it was just pouring rain the whole time. The town is mud bath in bad weather, only marginally set up for this kind of thing. It still represents a much better choice in terms of its range of services compared to the neighboring towns.
Great hotel located a 3 minute walk to the center of everything. It was great to be close to everything but not right in the middle of all the super loud music. Beds are super comfortable, the wifi worked great (which was a pleasant surprise) and the breakfasts are delicious. The shower also had BOTH hot water and pressure.
My experience at Nativa Whale Domes in Puerto Lopez was, unfortunately, the most challenging night of my trip. Despite the potential for a pleasant stay, there's a significant drawback that overshadowed everything else.
Heidi gave me great advice for restaurants and also organized a day tour for me, that was really great and cheaper than other tour offers 'on the street'.
Very nice owners, and convenient place to stay in Puerto Lopez. It is a little further from the harbour but it is still doable to walk or take a tuc tuc
