The hotel is centrally located in Puerto ayora directly on the sea. From all rooms, the outdoor patio, grill, bar, pool and jacuzzi and the dining room has an incredible view of the ocean. On the terrace is the einflügelige Pelikan Julian home and occasionally there are also other animals, such as iguanas: A lovely Galapagos feeling! The hotel seems to be newly renovated and is dedicated management. Although we have been about 10 hours checking in to the hotel, we were given a room right away and the second also only 20 minutes later. The rooms have tiled floors, good and new beds, air conditioning, safe and wireless internet. The bathrooms are fine. All in all: No luxury, but we were not expecting one and were so very happy. The balconies are with seating. Beach towels for the pool and excursions are available. The breakfast sparkles more by the great view of the ocean, if booked through the food but was completely enough. Worth getting a price comparison for contacting queueing reservation through a travel agent, we did the travel brochure a lot cheaper.
