This is where to stay in Manta! The location, the accommodations (including the restaurant and pool) and the extras (hairdryers, perfect showers, balcony, breakfast, airport shuttle) — all of this perfect and the staff, even better.

I don’t think the online photos do it justice; I moved from another hotel to here and did so based on recommendations & reviews rather than photos.

Andres Zavala was an excellent tour guide and driver. He is our Amigo!. He is a wonderful man who took very good care of my family. He was a great tour guide. Selena was very helpful with checking us in and making our stay top notch! The staff and service were excellent and the hotel and restaurant were great! I highly recommend Hotel Balandra.

The noise was loud through the floor. The room above our room, we could hear every footstep and they had kids running around latenight and early. And there was some construction for a couple days that was loud jackhammering.

Breakfast is excellent. Staff was very helpful. The location is as close to the beach as you can get and faces the ocean. To the side of the hotel is a very good mall. Taxi to airport very early in the morning was free.

The door hanger about room service was confusing. The green side is to request service so (maybe I'm the only dumb guest they ever had) I assumed you will not have service unless you put out that hanger. I prefer no service. It would have helped if the check in clerk showed me the hammer and explained, "Red sign is for do not disturb and no service, the green side is for faster service, and if you put no hanger then you will still get service, but later."

Great hotel with super nice facilities, lush and tropical gardens, and rooms are clean and spacious. Although the pool isn´t big, it`s heated what makes it very pleasant. Our kids loved the playground. Breakfast is fantastic, and all the staff at the restaurant, customer-oriented, very helpful, and friendly. Special thanks also for Maria José, she is wonderful and made us and our kids feel very welcome. We definitely return!

Excellent restaurant. Beautiful breakfast buffet and compliments to the chef for our lunch and dinner. The warm pool and family park was perfect for our little one and the game room was perfect for our teens.

very clean and a wonderful buffet breakfast. nice mini bar and 2 free bottles of water per day.

you have to climb too many stairs before you even get to the elevator to go to your room and the restaurant. They only give you one 1” bar (if you can call it a bar) of soap.

This is a large hotel with all of the services you would expect. The staff were very kind and helpful, and the buffet breakfastis terrific. Also, the rooms are very clean and spacious.

There are several steps in the common areas of the hotel, which could be difficult for guests who have trouble walking.
