Alma de cedrela

Puerto Ayora

A recently renovated apartment in Puerto Ayora and within 600 metres of Galapagos Beach at Tortuga Bay, Alma de cedrela features a garden, comfortable allergy-free rooms and free WiFi. All rooms are equipped with a patio with views of the garden. Everything was wonderful! Martin and his family are amazing and my only regret is we did not get to spend more time with them (too busy enjoying the island). The beds are very comfortable, great shower and hot water, the air conditioning works great, and very spacious room. A very nice yard to relax in. It’s a few blocks off the Main Street and about 10 minutes to the waterfront. Very quite yet close to everything. If we come back to the island, we will stay then again!
