    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The quality of the food and beverages was excellent, especially the included breakfast. The hotel facilities were great, including the warm 24-hour pool. The location was perfect, right on the beach and close to the main plaza and Las Grietas. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel.

    Nothing, everything was great.

    Beautifully laid out resort with comfortable rooms and stunning views of the beach and ocean. The absence of TVs and room service creates a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The pool area is a luxurious spot to unwind with a cocktail.

    Incredible location, well-organized with delicious breakfasts. Great tour guide and assistance with transportation. Expensive but worth it for a special treat. Amazing pool, clean rooms, and fantastic boat excursions. Gorgeous setting with direct access to the public beach. Friendly and helpful staff. Impeccable service and food, with well-organized transfers and excursions. Knowledgeable guide. By far our favorite hotel in the area.

    Spent my Xmas week at a fantastic resort in Galapagos and had a great experience. The hotel was luxurious and provided a first-class service. The view to the sea from my ocean view room was spectacular, got to admire the beach and the exotic wildlife from the comfort of my own space. The resort was walking distance to many restaurants, shops, and activities. Had the opportunity to snorkel with playful sea lions and get close to the sea turtles. Loved the staff, they were so friendly and provided a very professional and personalized service.

    The food was a bit pricey, and the offerings were not too varied, would have preferred a more diverse menu. The pool was great, but it was a bit small for the number of guests staying at the hotel.

    I had the most incredible stay at a hotel located in a beautiful bay near Puerto Ayora. To get there, I took a quick water taxi ride and walked just 10 minutes to reach the hotel. The location was perfect, just a minute away from Los Alemanes Beach and a short 10-minute walk to Las Grietas.
