Reviews and Ratings
I couldn't have asked for a better location! The hotel is in an amazing spot, just steps away from the town and close to the enchanting Charles Darwin Breeding Center. The rooms were cozy and had breathtaking views, but they could use some touch-ups. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The dining was a bit underwhelming, with room for improvement, yet the facilities were superb. Overall, a great place with remarkable service and an unbeatable location!
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were huge, comfortable, and had fabulous views with balconies overlooking the bay. The service was outstandingly kind, from the customer service to the helpfulness of the staff. The location couldn't have been better, with warm and friendly staff all around. The dining experience was really good, especially down in the restaurant. Overall, a beautiful hotel with great amenities.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely incredible! The room was spacious, very clean, and had a large bathroom. The views from the private balconies were breathtaking, especially watching the sea lions on the deck below. The service was top-notch, with extremely accommodating staff making sure every need was met. The location was like a dream, perched above the sea and mangrove, offering a spectacular experience. The dining was good overall, but could have used a bit more variety. The facilities were excellent, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay.
