In beach and surf culture, the “Big Kahuna” conjures up images of someone who has eschewed the trappings of corporate life to embrace a simple life enjoying the mix of adrenalin and leisure time found living close to the ocean. Success is calculated by the enjoyment you get spending a day at the beach, and wealth is measured by the number of sunsets witnessed from your hammock.
If you self-identify as that “Big Kahuna,” you will want to check out this property in the Las Núñez area on Ecuador’s Pacific coast. Situated on a large 2,600 square meter ocean view lot, is this two-story 2,691 square foot house with a bohemian vibe. The main living areas of living room, dining room, and kitchen are located on the ground level. You find two finished bedrooms on the upper level, each with a bathroom. There is also an unfinished bedroom and bathroom on this level. The breathtaking views from the second story take in the blue waters of the Pacific and the verdant hillsides.
Great surf is just a few minutes away. However, even if you never wax a surfboard, you can still philosophically live the surfer lifestyle of Big Kahuna: commune with Mother Nature, feel the rhythm of the surf, be in the moment, and let your worries disappear.
