What are your interests? I worked in Ecuador for a few months, but my experiences are limited to pretty remote rain forest areas. If you are adventurous and interested in a rain forest experience, I can offer some suggestions (walking from Reserva Biologica Bilsa to the coast, for example). For markets, my fave is Otavalo. The Galapagos are a must-see, albeit a pricey one. I loved the Andean foothills north and east of Quito – pretty developed, yet beautiful and full of wonderful people.

You won’t lack for places to visit, that’s for sure. I can’t offer insights on the beaches, since I didn’t really visit them, but if that’s your thing, someone else can probably help.
