Possibly more natural to say: What about the other side of the coin? Though to be honest I don't think any English speaker would really say that in this context, not really the place for a saying...(which regarding coins the proper saying is "2 sides of the same coin")

probably better to say something like: Ecuador is beautiful, I'm sure it can be the best place to live, but does it offer everything other places can?
