It is a nice hostel. The room we had was nicely spacious. The owner was super nice and very helpful, she gave us many useful tips. The drinking water was easily available in the kitchen. The guesthouse is very close to the beach and in our opinion very good in price-to-quality ratio. We could see many flamingos in the pond behind the hostel. The internet connection was actually pretty good (at least in the top floor where we have been situated). The owner also has a bar which is just across the street, it is a nice place, directly on the beach!

The location right on the beach was excellent. The room was spacious and well laid out. Staff was incredible. Our first room was at the end of the walkway into the complex, so there was no privacy whatsoever unless we closed the blinds, but then we'd lose the excellent view. Our second room was so much better for us. Also, I injured my ankle during my stay. Lovely Melia accompanied us to the nearby medical center to interpret for us and make sure I got the care I needed. That, to me, was beyond customer service. They really care about their guests.

Hotel is located in the second row of the beach. There is party at the beach (Pink Iguana Bar) on Fridays and Saturdays. I heard guests with rooms facing the beach complaining about noise during weekend nights. My room was facing the back country. With my windows closed I did not hear anything during weekend nights.

The location and view were perfection! I had my balcony door open day and night for my 5 day visit and slept like a baby listening to the waves. Virtually no insects so was great! Two minutes from flamingos, restaurants and bars close by and the Yummy Yummy empanada vendor and his friendly smile right next door. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Despite the language barrier with some staff, I felt like one of the family.

The hotel is right on the seafront located near to bars and restaurants. It was very quiet and rooms were a good size and beds comfortable. Breakfast was great and most of the staff very accommodating . Soft white sand and clear aqua marine sea. Some big waves but great for a swim and cool off. Lovely quiet beach with more iguanas than people most of the time. A lovely place to stay on the paradise island of Isabella.

We enjoyed Isabel Island the most of the three Islands we stayed at. Fantastic wildlife. The sunrises and sunsets, long beach walks, Los Tunnels Tour, bike rental, trails, tortoise natural reserve, plenty of shops for fresh fish and produce, plenty of restaurants with delicious food, panaderias with baked goods and early morning coffee. Awesome locals that were very friendly and helpful. Exceeded all our expectations.

We enjoyed traveling beyond Santa Cruz Island for a few nights, just to experience the "vibe" of a different island. The town of Puerto Villamil is relaxed, very friendly and a charming beach town. Most of the area is walkable, though taxis were very cheap (less than $5).

Isabela is a backpacker's destination with very poor infrastructure and low level restaurants. And it's extremely expensive for a European, especially if you come from a non Euro-country given the appreciation of the USD. We struggled to find a decent restaurant and it turned out that the Mexican was the best (full every night). To give you an example of cost, a main course was between USD19-30 which in eg Spain would have been aprox USD8. Price/quality ratio is among the worst we've experienced.
Ecuador, especially the islands, is a cash only-no receipt-economy with the purpose of squeezing the last dollar out of the tourists. We left with few intentions of returning which is a shame given the amazing animals and nature. People are mostly very friendly and helpful which was a nice.

The laid-back beach town vibes here are so much different than Puerto Ayora and Puerto Baquerizo Moreno on the other islands. We loved the relaxing atmosphere and I wish we'd planned this stop toward the end of the trip instead of right at the beginning. Make sure you do a trip to Los Tuneles while you're there - the scenery is fantastic and it was the best snorkeling we had on our week in the islands.

Puerto Villamil is small but welcoming and very beautiful with great opportunities for snorkeling, walking, biking, swimming, kayaking etc. Most restaurants seem to serve "pizza" for tourists, but it's possible to avoid that for more traditional and delicious fare. The local beer is good, the people are friendly and it's well worth the effort to visit. The wildlife is spread around the island, but you can experience an incredible variety in the near vicinity - flamingos, penguins, sea lions, manta rays, sea horses, turtles, tortoises, iguanas, lava lizards, blue-footed/nazca boobies and other incredible sea birds, sharks and colourful fishes, I can't wait to go back :)

Nice place, really relaxing.
Nice place, really relaxing. Not too many good options to go out for dinner and the nice restaurants are quite expensive. But this is the rule in Galapagos.
If you don't have much money, I would not recommend to stay many nights here, because the day trips are hugely expensive and there is not many free options otherwise staying in the central beach.

Located at the edge of main commercial area so easy walk to shops, food, laundry, tours
Breakfast of fruit, granola, toast, scrambled eggs, the freshly squeezed orange was delicious!
Room was basic, no wardrobe or tv. We had to leave our suitcases on the floor which was inconvenient.
Hotel provided beach towels, useful.
Hotel only had a few guests so was nice and quiet but layout would allow noise transfers from common areas if busy.
Price was high for standard of room. Glimpse of beach from some rooms
The hosts of the hotel were absolutely wonderful. I was walking around on crutches due to an incident and they could not have made my trip more comfortable. From carrying my (heavy) bag to arranging tours and even asking the ferry staff back to Santa Cruz to take special care of me on which they did. The breakfast in made with love, the Galapagos coffee is phenomenal. Rooms are clean and comfortable (I had hot water every day). If I return I would go straight back to this place. Wifi is fine too.
Very clean, nice room. I was picked up at the ferry terminal, that was unexpected (apparently included) and made life easy. I prolonged for a third night. I think they use the same linen and towels as in their more expensive "Hotel Laguna", so for a hostal, the materials were of a much higher quality than I had expected. A 3 minute walk down the road leads you to a little café (Panadería Aroma) where a good breakfast can be bought starting at 6.45 (in time before excursions start).
Everything was amazing. The hotel was right on the beach and close to town and Concha de Perla. Nice, quiet, very relaxing. As a solo traveler, I always felt safe. The rooms were beautiful and very well maintained. The staff was wonderful. Always available if you needed them. You’re able to book tours, rent scuba gear, whatever you needed. Very nice breakfast customized to what you like. And the view…stunning!
We had one of the two beachfront rooms (Acadia) that looked out onto the ocean and had magnificent view. Daniel the bartender from 4 - 8 pm each night was excellent. Location is close to everything in Isabela - the pier as well as the main town. Best part of hotel was being directly on the nicest beach in Isabela that was perfect for bodysurfing (no rocks in the water like the other beaches).
Very nice hotel. Very good breakfast. Puerto Villamil is very small. Position of this hotel is so close to everything. Pool was very nice to use in the evening.
Very comfy and clean room.
Isabela was my favourite place to stay during my Galapagos trip. It is so beatiful place that I wish I could spend there much more time!
Wilmer, the hotel manager, was very nice and helpful. When we checked in, I asked him for a quiet room. He took us upstairs and to the back of the hotel and that worked great. He also gave us an overview of Isabela and pointed out things that we could do on our own.
Comfy clean rooms, good breakfast, jacuzzi at the end of an active day, helpful staff, great location with view of the flamingos
We (2 couples 2 rooms) just completed 4 nights and staying 3 more nights. Great lake and ocean views.
The hotel has a pool as well.
Our host Abel made sure we had everything covered: he organized tours as well as recommendations on local activities and and around Puerto Villamil. The aircon units and the onsite water dispenser are very useful in this hot place.
Very comfortable hotel - big rooms, good aircon that flows not into bed, hot water, nice breakfast.
Hotel is 10 minutes from beach, but plenty of supermarkets around, brewery and best Galapagos restaurant La casa del asado nearby
Great value hostel a close walk from everything you need in Puerto Villamil. Very comfy bed, warm shower in ensuite (double room), friendly staff and other guests, hammocks, a small kitchen, and free laundry and bananas!
We were up-graded to Hotel San Vincente. Staff friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was very good. Good location, short walk to town center, beach area. Quiet neighborhood. Bakery and convenience stores nearby.
Our apartment was new and very comfortable, with a nice kitchen in addition to the bedrooms. Casa Soleil is on a dirt road, one half block away from the paved roads of the small town of Puerto Villamil.
Fantastic view, hotel direct at the seaside, nice decor of room, fantastic tarrace where was breakfast served.
Nice breakfast, eggs to your choice, cheese, ham, yogourt, fruits and smoothy
Abele was very accommodating, and even arranged a trip for me to a farm in the highlands. This hostal has the best location in Puerto Villamil - right on the beach!
Great location. The room was nice and very clean. The staff was was nice and always available. I would rebook in Bar de Beto hotel if i go back to Isabela!!
