Wow!! That's a lot of square footage for that money. Not to mention the amenities and location. Great job on the video, always appreciate you and your team's good work.
Thank you so much for your kind words, and thank you for your support! And yes, this is one of our favorite buildings, and a really great floor-plan! We always say, try finding a beachfront condo this size, with all these amenities, on the coast of Florida for less than $400k haha! Not to mention property taxes less than $400 per year! Thanks again and have a great week!
Hey Jim, yes it is on an upper floor and yes the night time views are spectacular! Plus the Ibiza building allows you to access the roof top for 180 degree views! Have a great week ahead and thanks for your support!
Yes, the Ibiza has a full building generator that powers the entire structure, all condos fully, pool pumps etc, and it comes on automatically if we lose power. Another nice bonus! Plus it also has the full building water filtration system which is another great bonus! Thanks for watching and have a great week!
This covers all the building and amenities maintenance, the gated neighborhood, and your insurance as well! Yearly taxes are less than $400 for the whole year! Any other thoughts or questions please feel free to ask. Enjoy your week and thank you for your support!
Hey Randy good evening, so the HOA for all of the amenities is actually right on target as most buildings do not have this much community/green space, especially with only one tower, nor are they in a gated neighborhood. Plus the building has a full water filtration system as well, the only one I know of for a high rise building in the area. The terrace is a bit deceiving as it wraps around, so the front portion is long and perfect for relaxing chairs viewing the ocean, while the side portion is more open to allow for dining table and BBQ:) Thanks as always for your support and have a great week!
@@surf01er66 thanks man! Surf season is already gearing up to be a good one here! I ordered a new Lost Puddle Jumper Sting looking forward to trying out:) Keep us posted if you come down and we will catch some waves! Enjoy your week!
Good morning John, well "boring oceans" might be subject to debate for most people lol We enjoy whale watching from our balconies, surfing and body boarding, kite-surfing, fishing, relaxing with a beach stroll and more:) And our temps range from the 60's to 80's year round so more mild than you might think. But all that being said, if you are looking for something colder in the mountains, we do have some really great realtors in those areas within our network and we would be happy to introduce you. Please feel free to reach us at sales@ecuadorshoresrealty.com and we will send you their contact info. Thank you for watching and have a great week!
@mastersparkyful we have been living here for over a decade and never had an issue. Meanwhile, back in the US, you have daily mass shootings, road rage, school shootings, etc etc, and crazy amounts of violence. Even Mexico has regular amounts of violence against tourists when our area of Manta is extremely rare. We, as well as our growing number of clients, feel very safe living the beach life here in Manta:) But all that being said, we always invite people to come visit the area and see for themselves. Have a great weekend!
@EcuadorShoresRealty well nice try. Don Shader has a video of a man being shot right below his unit in Manta and now it appears that they can't even keep the power on. What a joke. I find Don to be more honest about Manta.
@@mastersparkyful yes I know Don very well and we are good friends. I also know about the time you are referring to. The guy was a local Ecuadorian (not a tourist or expat) and it was discovered that it was an inside job from people that knew that he was taking $15k dollars in cash out of the bank that day. I wouldn't do that in the US or anywhere else for that matter. Keep in mind also that we don't have regular mass shootings, school shootings, road rage shootings, home invasions, etc etc etc like in the US. In recent months I have heard about a sniper in Charlotte NC that killed people at random, a guy in Boston that stabbed three girls in a movie theater for no reason, another school shooting in CA and in GA, 9 people shot in a IL McDonalds, the list goes on and on and on in the US. So far in 2024 the US has had over 485 mass shootings, and over 600 mass shootings every year for the past 4yrs. The recent power issue was due to the worst drought in about 70yrs that caused power rationing until the reservoir for hydro could be replenished. Now things are coming back to normal and the President just announced that the power outages will be terminated on December 20th so all good. On a side note, all of the newer condo towers have full generators and most new homes have them or are at least wired for them, so people still have power. Again, we invite you and others to come visit for yourself sometime and see first hand how things are here. We wish you the best and Merry Christmas!
@@mastersparkyfullol nah, I just like informing people as much as we can and answering questions bud. As for the State Department, it seems that they list every country on earth as an advisory lol. Meanwhile plenty of countries also have travel advisories against the US too. In the current world times we say this.... pretty much anywhere on earth there are issues, no place is perfect, but you do your best to not be a target. Here in EC we say don't go into the worst neighborhoods with your MR. T gold starter kit or join a criminal gang, and you should be just fine. Over the years we have heard about some pick pockets, maybe a couple purse snatches or a cell phone grab and other things of opportunity, but we don't have tourists being targeted and killed like in Mexico, Panama, Dominican Republic etc. And again we don't worry about the daily violence against the public like the US does. For these and other reasons we have more and more people choosing our area and other areas of Ecuador to call home, and they are enjoying life! If it's not for you then that's cool, everyone has their own boxes to check when looking outside the US. We still always wish you and everyone else the best in your search:)

Very nice indeed. What floor is that on? Bet the night view is amazing as well.
Hey Jim, yes it is on an upper floor and yes the night time views are spectacular! Plus the Ibiza building allows you to access the roof top for 180 degree views! Have a great week ahead and thanks for your support!
Does the Ibiza building have a generator? If so, what is powered in the condo?
Yes, the Ibiza has a full building generator that powers the entire structure, all condos fully, pool pumps etc, and it comes on automatically if we lose power. Another nice bonus! Plus it also has the full building water filtration system which is another great bonus! Thanks for watching and have a great week!
What does the $365 HOA cover?
This covers all the building and amenities maintenance, the gated neighborhood, and your insurance as well! Yearly taxes are less than $400 for the whole year! Any other thoughts or questions please feel free to ask. Enjoy your week and thank you for your support!
Very reasonable considering it includes insurance.
@@user-xp5qx8wg9x Yes absolutely, especially when compared vs the US beachfront prices:)
Is the building pet friendly? I have 2 small dogs
Yes absolutely! Multiple people have pets in the building so no worries. Thanks for watching and enjoy your day!
hmmmmm HOA a little high, small terrace also

What's the city again?
Manta Ecuador@@alaintaschereau2433
Too warm climate there show me something at elevation inland away from boring oceans

I have a tenant that tells me do not go to Manta because the cartes have taken over and crime is through te roof there.

@@EcuadorShoresRealty lengthy...struck a nerve. Apparently the US State department isn't as informed as you. Read the advisory on Equador.
