Hola, I'm from Taiwan and willing to relocate to Ecuador within few months. However, I heard from some online channels that there is a lot of people(nationality is a very big country in Asia) coming into Ecuador recently so that it's very hard to find hotel or accomodation. I want to know that this is rumor or real situation ?
Thanks
Hey schlee1231,
You did well by starting this new thread.
While waiting for someone to give you some insights, I invite you to read the following articles related to Accommodation in Ecuador.
Best of luck

The subject of this thread is likely a rumor,
nothing more. This apparent rumor
is unsourced so far as we know.
If you visit prominent travel sites such
as Booking.com, Expedia.com or
AirBnb, you should find plenty of listings
for Ecuador.
Popular Expat locations include highland,
cool-weather cities such as Quito, Cuenca
and Cotacachi .. and coastal locations such
as Manta and Salinas, among others.

@cccmedia Thank you very much for the information. Rumor is everywhere online.
@Cheryl Thank you
USA Today's take on Ecuador and Expatting.
USA Today has published a 2023 update on
the Expat scene .. focusing on some of the
'usual suspects' among the writers, past and
present, for IL Magazine and
Live and Invest Overseas. Lee Harrison, 70,
and his wife are portrayed as examples of
Expats who have made the transition to
Expat life successfully.
Culling through the usual pap for any nuggets
the famous newspaper found worthy of
mention, we note the following...
-- In the past 20 years, the number of
USA retirees worldwide who are receiving
their Social Security benefits abroad
has doubled, to about 443,000, acccording
to SSA figures.
-- In 2021, the median income for
USA citizens age 65 and up was
$47,620.
-- The popular Expat destination of
Mexico has 1.6 million U.S. citizens
living within its borders.
-- Ecuador, Panama and Belize
are three Latin American countries
where the currency used is the
U.S. dollar. This mitigates currency
fluctuations that might otherwise
reduce Expat spending power in
those countries.
