Tiene la ventaja de que se puede intercambiar noches con el Red Mangrove en Isabela, lo que facilita la movilidad. Un grupo de lobos marinos e incontables iguanas, tomaron parte del área para tomar el sol y del restaurante exterior, como su sitio de "asoleadero", lo que ofrece el plus de convivir MUY DE CERCA con estos increíbles animales; experiencia única e irrepetible en la vida. MUY RECOMENDABLE para quien pretenda explorar las Galapagos ##### Jesus Fdo ### 8/10 Good #### Esteban J, Buenos Aires 29 Sept 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hermoso hotel La habitación que nos asignaron era espectacular!Era amplia y preciosa! El desayuno en el otro hotel era de primera, en un lugar de paraíso, veíamos desde el comedor a los lobos marinos con los bebés. La zona está alejada del centro pero es muy segura y tranquila. La comunicación con el hotel era un poco complicada porque el hotel está a tres cuadras y el telefono no andaba bien.Sin embargo, el personal tenía una muy buena actitud de servicio y de solucionar todo. Por suerte había leído comentarios y sabía que hay que hacer el check in en el otro hotel y arreglamos directamente con el taxista de ir para allá. ##### Esteban J ### 10/10 Excellent #### M 28 Sept 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect location Very Nice hotel.

No tiene veladores para tener luz cerca a la hora de descansar, y hay que apagar la luz principal y luego llegar a la cama a oscuras. Tiene una especie de cocina como si fuera un apart, pero no tiene utensilios, heladera, cocina, ni nada. Tiene demasiados niveles, siendo muy complicado el acceso para personas con movilidad reducida. Se accede a la habitación por una escalera compleja, en la misma existen tres desniveles más. Mucha oscuridad y olor a humedad. ##### Verified traveller ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 27 Jul 2015 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Do not stay here \- Horrible location - Rooms are far away from lobby (they will call a cab for you when you check in, but to check out, you have to call a cab on your own or drag your bag 10 minutes to the lobby. - Internet signal depends on your room. I couldn't get any signal in my room, even though they said the signal would be strong. You have to pay to use, btw. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 26 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Overall experience was positive. The room was clean and staff was friendly and helpful. I paid more but it was nice to have someone meet me at the airport and guide me through the transportation through Santa Cruz. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### T, New Mexico 25 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Interesting Hotel But Not Worth A Second Stay Interesting experience. How many times do you stay in a Mangrove swamp? Waiters in the restaurant were inattentive and unresponsive. Sushi was not good. Hotel reception was pleasant; however, getting a partial refund for airport transportation was difficult and at one point the desk clerk got unpleasant. Don't think they ever refunded the WiFi(which didn't work) access fee. Still haven't received a copy of the itemized bill I requested (they promised a copy via email). ##### T ### 6/10 Okay #### Eva, California 19 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service #### Nice hotel but lacking personality The booking of this hotel was suppose to include free internet connection, however the hotel did not honer this and said Expedia was wrong. I was charged for the service. The staff, including waiters at the hotel were not attentive to their guest and were walking around like robots. The food was okay. The room was located away from the main hotel, there were no phones in the room and the phone that was suppose to be used for emergency or to contact the main hotel did not work. The staff (appeared to be in their 20s) running this hotel did not have a leader to guide them or so it seemed. The plus is the beautiful view from the restaurant and the facility was clean. ##### Eva ### 2/10 Terrible #### In, Macau 17 Jul 2015 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very bad hotel The rooms is dirty.

Poor service. The hotel on the waterfront is very nice. We were greeted by sea lions and marine iguanas on the hotel deck. Great feature. We were disappointed that the hotel advertized as if our room were on the waterfront, but then were put up in the Divers Lodge, which is a few blocks away from the water. The hotel staff does not appear to have the phone numbers of a taxi company or individual taxis, so getting a taxi was a difficult endeavor. On our last day, we needed an early morning taxi. The evening staff assured us they would have one for us at the appointed time, but the morning staff knew nothing of it. The morning reception staff sent the guard to get us a taxi. I had to personally remind the guard three times as he was flirting with the reception girl and didn't want to be bothered by our urgent request. With still no taxi in site, my wife and I had to heft our gear all the way to the dock on foot. A big fail for customer service. Also, the hotel offers no bottled water, which is standard for all hotels and restaurants throughout the Galapagos and Ecuador. The restaurant prices were so high we didn't bother to eat at the hotel. I'd say the restaurant offerings and prices are not practical for the area. The reception staff assured us that our rooms were safe, but the maid left the door wide open with her keys in our door and the compound door wide open. Any one could have entered our room from the street or hotel during cleaning time. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 24 Apr 2015 Disliked: Staff & service #### Value for money paid Good value for money. Basic but reasonable. Clean, neat and tidy. However there are no staff to be found anywhere. Breakfast is served in the main hotel which is a short walk away. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Marisol, Quito, Ecuador 24 Apr 2015 Disliked: Staff & service #### Comfortable but... The hotel is 3 blocks away from the principal hotel and you have to walk to take breakfast and to make the check in. If you need anything you have to call for somebody on the other hotel. The food is good and the room is clean but the staff is not to pending on the guests and neither helpful. ##### Marisol ### 2/10 Terrible #### amar, los angeles 23 Mar 2015 Liked: Room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Very poor hotel poor service like a shack bugs included ##### amar ### 6/10 Okay #### Ron, Oakton,Va 25 Jan 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Comfortable hotel with minimal ammenties The hotel was clean and comfortable but low on amenities.

The room was fine. The place for the view was the restaurant and verandah. The verandah furniture were full of sea lions and the floor full of the biggest piles of excrement you have ever seen. The seals then move through it and climb on the furniture again. We were told that two thirds of the menu was unavailable and we could not get service without going to the kitchen and asking... This over a couple of days. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Paul, New York 8 Nov 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Hotel did not have our Reservation Hotel did not have our Hotels.com reservation!

The free use of bicycles was very usefull and a benifit of this hotel. ##### Paul ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 8 Nov 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### 過ごしやすい快適なホテル 本館からは徒歩で3分ほどと離れているものの、快適に過ごすことができました。こちらにはスタッフは常駐していませんが、電話で連絡を取ることができるので安心です。WiFiのつながりが弱かった点もありましたが、スタッフの方々も気さくで心地よく滞在することができました。街の中心部までは徒歩10分圏内です。 ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 28 Oct 2014 #### GALAPAGOS TOUR Nice clean hotel in a quiet neighborhood,but to our surprise we found out that this is actually a branch of main hotel with NO amenities,the main hotel is about 5 minutes walk from this location. On our arrival we had to call main hotel through a phone located on a window sill and was told to come down to main hotel to register and pick up room key. We found this very strange and inconvenient.Also only main hotel has restaurant where you can have breakfast dinner etc,but you may not want to walk there every morning for breakfast. This location is walking distance from main street ,but make sure you remember some of the landmarks since there is no street name posted any where. We were lost on the first night! Also hardly any shop or Travel Agent will accept credit card in Galapagos,everything is in CASH. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Ricardo, Bogota 19 Oct 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Regular WIFI service, but EXCELLENT Room for rest Well, the main building of the hotel, is excellent...really clean, with one of the best sights from the restaurant, but in the extension of the hotel, which is located 4 blocks aprox from there, has poor neighborhood, no sight...almost nothing around...and the internet service was regular. Also, you should know that Galapagos is for adventures, tours, cycling, diving/snorkelling...etc, and you will go to your bed just for the night...and thats where this extension is awesome, the room is really comfortable to rest. ##### Ricardo ### 6/10 Okay #### Ben, United States 18 Oct 2014 Liked: Staff & service #### A solid option Ok so here is the scoop: it is important to realize that the Divers Lodge is different from the main Red Mangrove hotel. The divers extension is more like an annex - located a few blocks away - and it lacks some of the charm of the main hotel. A few ups and downs from our stay: + Staff were very helpful and speak good english + Location is great for Puerto Ayora - not smack in the middle of the bustle but only a 10 min walk to the center of town - The rooms need updating: we had a few ants, the hot water was sluggish after the first day, and our door lock was very difficult to operate Ultimately, those plusses were more important to us than the minuses, and we would stay again. ##### Ben ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Ourabay Hotel Apartamento](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Ourabay-Hotel-Apartamento.h10559300.Hotel-Information) > > [Quite Cottage on Private Lake w/Fishing Boat Included!](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Delton-Hotels-Quite-Cottage-On-Private-Lake-Wfishing-Boat-Included.h28840021.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Kavos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kavos-Villas.d6078336-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [BritanniaHotels Hotels in Woolsington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woolsington-Hotels-Britannia-Hotels.0-0-d3000467154--bBritanniaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Westin Resort, Costa Navarino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalamata-Hotels-The-Westin-Resort.h3023827.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Montpellier](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Montpellier-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d6047038-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Centrale](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cernobbio-Hotels-Hotel-Centrale.h2542542.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stable Courtyard Bedrooms at Leeds Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maidstone-Hotels-The-Stable-Courtyard-Bedrooms-At-Leeds-Castle.h12846141.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Jaisalmer](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaisalmer-Hotels.d6131690.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [B&B Derbyshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Derbyshire-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d6046195-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Aparthotel Adagio la Défense Courbevoie](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Aparthotel-Adagio-La-Defense-Courbevoie.h8800125.Hotel-Information) > > [Catalonia Grand Costa Mujeres All Suites & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cancun-Hotels-Catalonia-Costa-Mujeres-All-Suites-Spa.h39132531.Hotel-Information) > > [The Moon Boutique Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Florence-Hotels-The-Moon-Boutique-Hotel.h22254976.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Bamburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Bamburgh-Hotels.s50-0-d181022.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Pool in Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hilton-Hotels-Hotels-With-Pool.0-0-d3000000407-tHotelswithPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Mersoy Exclusive Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marmaris-Hotels-Mersoy-Exclusive-Aqua-Resort.h1315911.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Exeter (EXT) to Arlanda (ARN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ext/arn/exeter-to-stockholm) > > [Flights from Fort Lauderdale (FLL) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/fll/mia/fort-lauderdale-to-miami) > > [Flights from Athens (ATH) to Gatwick (LGW)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ath/lgw/athens-to-london) > > [Flights from Leeds (LBA) to Ostend (OST)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lba/ost/leeds-to-ostende) ### Cars > [Van Car Hire in Lanzarote](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Van-Car-Rentals-In-Lanzarote.d282-tVan.Car-Rental-Guide-Class) ### Activities > [Things to do in Chipiona](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Chipiona.d6048411.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Newcastle-upon-Tyne Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne.d6084526.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Georgia Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Georgia.d11403.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Temple of Olympian Zeus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Temple-Of-Olympian-Zeus-Athens-City-Centre.d500270.Attraction) > > [Nelson's Dockyard](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nelsons-Dockyard-English-Harbour.d6060831.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Delaware City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Delaware-City.dx183080) > > [Visit Kenya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kenya.dx92)
