What a view

This tucked away hotel right on the beach was a lovely way to end our journeys in the Galapagos. We had a beach facing second floor room and loved it. Breakfast on the rooftop was yummy and everything modern and clean. Easy walking to restaurants and the numerous tour companies. Had a baby seal hang out on one of our lounge chairs all day. Adorable.

Awesome Place to Stay

This hotel was in a great location on the beach. We walked out of our room right onto the beach and close to everything. We had the cutest sea lion that has been living alone at the hotel that is so adorable. Nice breakfast on the rooftop is nice. The hotel is very clean and beds were so comfy and the air conditioning is very good.

Rather pricey for an average property which makes sense for the lactation right on the beach. Sea or ocean huggers will love this property.

Very clean, spacious rooms appearing to be recently renovated with gorgeous view and ability to hear the ocean. Felt like paradise. Had amenities such as toiletries and hair dryer. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful, able to have laundry washed for us for a small fee. Breakfast was great with fresh fruit, various breads, meats and eggs cooked to order. We enjoyed sitting outside on the beach under the umbrellas. Only complaint was 2 episodes of no water for flushing toilets, washing face or showering at night. Likely a water pressure issue uncontrollable by the hotel but thought it should be mentioned. It was a minor inconvenience. Overall we loved our stay here.

A beautiful hotel right on the beach. We were able to upgrade to a walk-out room when we arrived and we were so glad we did. The bed was very comfortable and linens pristine. The staff were friendly and accommodating and the roof top breakfast was wonderful in the mornings. Not to mention the breathtaking beach right outside your door. I would highly recommend and definitely visit again!

Amazing

The hotel is literally on the beach with an amazing view. Rooms are spacious and clean and the bed was very comfortable. Free coffee and filtered water in the lobby were a nice little bonus. Staff were super attentive and their recommendations were excellent. Would definitely recommend.

This is a beautiful two story hotel right on the sand, open and light, and had security cameras in public areas (which was comforting even though we never felt them necessary). It is close to everything (central market area, restaurants, beach bars) and highly walkable to elsewhere, but on the quiet side of island which was nice for sleeping. Reception always had someone available and helpful when we needed them and Nathalia even assisted us with a tour snafu that was not her fault/problem. Very clean and comfortable with really strong wifi, amazing rainfall shower with hotel-branded toiletries, AC unit in room, towels provided for the beach, and there was filtered water available in the lobby. There was a free and delicious breakfast with different specials each day (yogurt, granola, donuts, banana pancakes, plantains, bacon, made to order eggs/omelettes, waffles, fruit, fresh juices, variety of bread, and more) on the second floor beach patio. We saw other guests at breakfast each day but felt like the only ones there otherwise. I will say that we wished we’d splurged on an ocean-front room once we saw the beautiful beach! Lots of marine iguanas everywhere, rays, and some sharks visible from the shore. Highly recommend staying here, we would have loved to have moved in forever!

Beautiful place on Isabela

I had a short but sweet stay here. This hotel was a base for my multiple tours in Isabela. The breakfast and the ladies who served/cooked it were lovely. My room was spacious and had nice toiletries. And when I had to leave early for a 6 am ferry, the front desk (Jose) very kindly packed up a breakfast for me, which was much appreciated

Great hotel right on the beach

Lovely location right on the beach. Also only 2 minutes walk to the restaurants in the town. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast in the rooftop cafe is fantastic. Just a really nice little hotel for the price point.

Very nice hotel right on the beach, and in an excellent area. I've been on famous beaches in Florida, California, Hawaii, France, and Italy. This has been my favorite. The white-sand beach is gradual. The water temperature is perfect. And the marine iguanas are amazing. Breakfast was good, too. Eggs made too taste and other hot foods (e.g., French toast). This hotel earns five stars, plus, from me.

Fantastic view! People were very nice and were glad to help when you had questions. It is close to everything but just far enough away so as not to be right in the middle of everything. Rooms weren’t huge but had what you needed. The bed was comfortable. It would have been nice to have a small fridge in the room but they did install a beer and beverage fridge in the lobby on the second last day of our stay. The hotel is quite small so noise is not a problem. The breakfast in the morning is on a rooftop deck and was very good. This was a great place to spend 4 nights.
