Poseidon Hotel

Hotel Poseidon sits with its pool and main dining area facing the scenic beach of Manta, making it a lovely place to watch and sit the sunset. It also puts you a short distance from some of Ecuadorian coast’s most interesting spots for cultural exploration.

Most people come to Manta just for the beach, but you should also make time to experience some local history. Right next to the Murcielago Beach you can visit the Museo del Banco Central, where you can see ceramics left behind by the ancient Manta people, who settled in this part of Ecuador. About a 20-minute drive south of Manta you can visit the town of Montecristi, which attracts travelers with its vendors that sell handmade Panamanian hats.

On the grounds of the hotel, you’ll find a swimming pool that makes it easy to enjoy the view of the ocean without ever venturing onto the sand. The dining room has floor-to-ceiling windows that let in a good view of the ocean and a menu that serves international options and fresh seafood. There's also a spacious bar where you can order a refreshing drink.

Rooms are comfortable and nicely appointed. They all come with basic conveniences like a telephone and room service. You’ll also find a spacious bathroom. There is Wi-Fi throughout the hotel and cable TV in the room.
