Playas has been experiencing a growth spurt the last years, but it still has the character of small town. You won't find lots of tall condos in Playas, for example.

From Playas to the south runs the road to Posorja. Wealthier Ecuadorians have built their beach houses here. Here you will also find some gated communities.
