We highly recommend the Bayview House. Connie the owner was friendly and very helpful. We enjoyed our stay in the comfortable apartment that is in a good location close to the supermarket, wharf and heaps of restaurants.

The location of the apartment was excellent, walking distance to all, restaurants, travel and rental facilities, etc.

The only thing to consider is that it can be loud at night during the weekend as it is so central.

Super location and really well located. The host was super nice and helpful.

Amazing location, right on Main Street. Super clean

The shower kept vacillating between cold and hot - scalding hot. It wouldn't stay stable. There were also tiny bugs that tried to get in our groceries and I learned later these bugs are ubiquitous to the Galapagos. We solved it by putting all our food in the refrigerator.

This was a perfect location - close to Darwin Center, shopping, grocery store, restaurants, and the waterfront. The room balcony had a view of the bay.and the terrace up the roof was an added bonus. The room was very clean and spacious

The water pressure of the shower was our only complaint everything else was great.

Great location close to everything. Perfect for a family stay. Connie was very helpful and was very flexible with our schedule. Very comfortable for us.

our only comment was the sleeper sofa was not "really" a sleeper sofa. Also be aware there is no elevator, so stairs are required to access the apartment. Connie and her husband were kind enough to assist us with our luggage, which we very much appreciated!

Connie was wonderful to work with, and very responsive. The apartment was immaculate and well located, within walking distance to the Ferry and many restaurants. Lovely view from the balcony and most importantly, the beds were very comfortable!

It wasn't issue for us but the sofa-bed (for the 3rd person) was quite low, so you have impression to sleep on the floor but was quite comptable.

Great location, sparking clean, nice view on the ocean from the room and we also could use the terrace upstairs with more direct ocean view. Perfect for the couple.

Perfect location

The shower hot and cold water pressure goes up and down, causing the water to either get too hot or not hot enough, but I think this may be an island thing as it also happened in my stay in San Cristobal.

Great and friendly staff, clean apartment with great view, fully equipped kitchen, AC, great location close to the pier and restaurants

It’s perfect for us!

Everything! This was our 2nd time staying at the Bayview house because we liked our first stay so much.

Very noisy on the street. Ants in the kitchen.

Very convenient to everything. Roomy and comfortable. Nice kitchen.

The shower is difficult to regulate. The water gets very hot and then a bit cool. It definitely was not enough for us the worry about, but if I had to mention something that could be improved, that is the only thing.

Everything was perfect! The location is the best in town! You can walk to the ferry (and purchase ferry tickets right next door), grocery stores, restaurants, piers, beaches, Charles Darwin Research Center or just about anywhere really. Conni, her nephew and all the staff were so incredible! The apartment was immaculate and the staff fully clean everything, everyday. I came back to grab something one day and they were mopping under the beds!! The apartment always smelled fresh and they replaced all bedding and towels every day. They provide a 5 gallon bottle of drinking water and replace it whenever needed so you never run out. The apartment is big and spacious, with a great room open to the kitchen and dining area, a bathroom and a large bedroom with 2 king size beds. The air conditioning units work amazingly and cool the entire apartment perfectly. We were there at the end of June and it gets very hot and it’s humid, so a cool apartment was very nice. We really felt this apartment was the best in town. There is also a large rooftop patio that over looks the entire bay! We also had zero issue with internet! We are a family of 4 with kids in social media and no problems at all. Conni also provided the name/number if a great doctor in town when we had an injury that needed to be looked at. Thank you, Conni and every one at the Bay View House…you guys made our trip to Santa Cruz so wonderful!

Very close to harbor and downtown. Terrace has a view of the ocean, which you can use all the time.

Nothing!

Our stay at the BayView house was short but wonderful. Connie was easy to communicate with prior to our arrival and met us the apartment to show us around and give us our keys. The apartment is lovely with a large common area including a big kitchen (which we did not use but looked to be well appointed), a nice sitting area and a large bedroom. The location is IDEAL. Very close to the port and a lot of good restaurants. Connie is a lovely host and the facility offers beach towels and laundry service for a small fee. I wish we could have stayed there longer.

i had no complaints, but it is important to note the open floor-plan: there is no door between the bed room and the living room with the second bed.

location is excellent, the apartment is modern, and it is comfortable and well-designed.

Stayed in June 2023

It was perfect for our purposes.

We were just grateful the host was home to let us in when we rang the bell!

Stayed in June 2023

one bed is put against a wall, so it is hard for the person sleeping inside to get off the bed.

very close to the ferry station, only 3-5 min away

Stayed in June 2023

The only downside of our stay was also due to the location of the property. It was conveniently located for shopping and tours, but on Friday and Saturday night that area of Puerta Ayora is party time central. Super loud party time till like 2 am.

Our apartment was super clean and kept that way every day. The hosts went out of their way to help us with anything we needed, and the location offered easy access to shopping, great restaurants, and tour booking agencies.

Excellent location, homeowner from behind and responsible. A little unshaded disadvantage from the street, first floor
