Rooms were clean and spacious, breakfast was great and staff were lovely! I would definitely stay again and wish I stayed longer. Location was perfect, very close to everything in the town and less than 5 mins away from the port to get to other islands.

“A little oasis in Puerto Ayora”
The staff were very accommodating and helpful. The 4th floor dining and seating area has a wonderful view of the port and a great breeze if you wish to cool down. The rooms are large, clean and comfortable, and the location is quiet but close to the pier and all the shops and restaurants.

“Great location & good value for money”
Brilliant location for the port which is helpful as many day trips in the Galapagos start early. Exceptionally helpful staff - with luggage and some logistics issues we had to work through. Nice rooms & brekkie too.

“Great location, AMAZING staff, lovely pool, and large, comfortable rooms with nice beds.”
The location is great and the staff was AMAZING!!! They were very accommodating and spoke very good english. They had bikes for day use which was so nice, and we used it as our primary mode of transport during our stay. The bed was two queen beds put together- AWESOME and the room was really roomy and comfortable. We loved this place, albeit seems a bit overpriced- we paid about $1000 for a 3 night stay. The pool was superb and we enjoyed the location! We love the restaurant view and that this place is a eco resort. The rooms were super clean as well! Would return.
