Mountain lakes in Ecuador where temps are less severe?

[RANDY FOSTER]

We are interesting in lakefront living where the temps aren’t extremely hot. Are there lake regions in Ecuador that offer that combination? Of course we would love to live oceanfront but I am just not able to tolerate extreme heat all year round; I think lakefront in higher altitudes would be a better bet. Any recommendations? Thank you so much!!

Ecuador’s geography doesn’t include large lakes with residential options. But in the entire highland area of the Andes which runs from north to south you will enjoy year round moderate temps.

Like Edd said, there are few lakes with residential options, though Lago San Pablo in the north Andes has lakefront housing options. Another option could be splitting your time between the cooler mountains and the warmer coast. Quite a few expats do this and have found a happy balance between ocean and highlands.
