Breakfast each morning was super fresh and consisted of fruit, juice, bread, eggs cooked to order, coffee, yogurt, granola and jam. Fresh cheese from the island was also very good. Rooms were very clean, comfortable and quiet and the staff is very friendly and helpful. They helped us arrange 3 different tours which included pick up at the hotel which made everything easy and enjoyable. Laundry was also done for us at the going rate around town which was quite convenient. They also provided drop off and pick up from the airport. This is exactly what we hoped for during our stay. ![Hotel entrance ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bfd7f1e9-4a44-4ba9-aaec-cd84a9f2315f-1765995761477.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Lobby/Breakfast Area](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a6f93877-f689-49a4-9e67-70ac85429313-1765996150890.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Farm fresh breakfast with all local ingredients ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/865ad6d8-e0fc-424a-99ad-d42c8e908ad1-1765996167836.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Front Desk](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/422d041e-82e7-4bdf-8aee-f7752e3a5b0a-1765996363347.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Kristina Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Niki Jul 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Really wonderful family running this hotel.

The room I had (#3) was large, with its own small balcony. The bathroom was more than adequate. The hot water did take a little time to warmup, but hey, this is the Galapagos. The owner and his wife (and family as well) was always available for any questions that I had. Not everyone spoke English, but again, this is the Galápagos, immerse yourself in the culture and you will get along just fine. I will stay at this hotel again. With just a short walk to downtown, and many small food stores in the neighborhood, you can easily visit grocery stores for food. You may have heard that you need cash USD in the Galápagos, absolutely true! Cary cash everywhere you go, cash is king! Economical laundry services are also done at the hotel. Don’t let the area around the hotel scare you off, things are being built up and the immediate area is under a renovation of sorts. Get ready to say, Hola, 200 times a day, the people in the Galápagos are very friendly! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c5e81ac6-281a-48ee-8dca-dd12c86434ae-1764968990528.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3cd7b3be-b6f8-4942-8e57-2815630b1413-1764968992420.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Michael Timothy Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CLAUDIA Jun 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Friendly environment.

They treat it like it's a little VRBO. They cook to order eggs, get fruit, coffee, fruit juice, delicious bread each morning. They clean the room every day. They scheduled shuttles for us. Very hospitable. ##### erin Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 30, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort They are happy to arrange trips and taxis for you at no additional charge. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel el descanso del Guia](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Ayora-Hotels-Hotel-El-Descanso-Del-Guia.h17525206.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Hotel in Pangasinan](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Pangasinan-Beach-Hotel.0-0-d553248635939564393-tBeachHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Fort Erie](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Erie-Hotels.d8119.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Mizata By Antiresort](https://www.expedia.ca/Mizata-Hotels-Mizata.h25141307.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in San José del Cabo](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Del-Cabo-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d8650-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Greece](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Greece-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d67-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Casino Hotels in Fallsview](https://www.expedia.ca/Fallsview-Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Casino-Hotel.0-n553248633981690205-0-tCasinoHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Painter's Lodge ](https://www.expedia.ca/Campbell-River-Hotels-Painters-Lodge.h8189731.Hotel-Information) > > [W Miami](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-W-Miami.h2483087.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Mashhad](https://www.expedia.ca/Mashhad-Hotels.d553248635973479963.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Coco Reef Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Crown-Point-Hotels-Coco-Reef-Resort-And-Spa.h197839.Hotel-Information) > > [Silver Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Chatham-Kent-Hotels-Silver-Motel.h12487055.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near United States Consulate General Montréal](https://www.expedia.ca/United-States-Consulate-General-Montreal-Hotels.0-l553248634249809069-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Asiana Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Asiana-Airlines-Flights.cOZ.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Cape Air](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Air-Flights.c9K.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Salem (SLE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/sle/toronto-to-salem) > > [Flights from Bordeaux (BOD) to Nice (NCE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/bod/nce/bordeaux-to-nice) > > [Flights from Delhi (DEL) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/del/yeg/delhi-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Detroit (DTW) to Indianapolis (IND)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dtw/ind/detroit-to-indianapolis) > > [Flights from Incheon (ICN) to Changchun (CGQ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/icn/cgq/seoul-to-changchun) > > [Flights from Detroit (DTW) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dtw/mia/detroit-to-miami) > > [Flights from Québec City (YQB) to Incheon (ICN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqb/icn/quebec-to-seoul) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Cancun](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Cancun.d179995.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Activities ### General
