Great time
Our stay in the hotel was great. We loved the castle style of the place. The personnel was friendly and they kept our room always clean. The only drawback was the Wi-Fi, connection was slow and bad.

Loved the hotel, we stayed in the Sun & Moon room which had its own turret! We had two outdoor areas to relax on. Great views. Pool was a life saver on a hot day. Breakfast was very nice

Wonderful stay!
On the edge of town in a quiet location. Our room had lovely art with beautiful tile throughout. Lovely courtyard with pool. The on-site owner was a fantastic host. Delicious breakfast to start the day. The Sun & Moon room is exceptional. Enjoy your stay!

We had an amazing stay here largely due to the fantastic host Gianna! From the minute we arrived she provided us with lots of information on what to do on the island, would book us tours, and made sure we were always well taken care of! The breakfast was great, and hotel was very unique with beautiful view over the national park. Enjoyed jumping in the pool every day. Short walk to the main shopping/restaurants area and only about 15 minute walk to the Charles Darwin station. We stayed 3 extra nights here and would love to come back one day!

We only stayed for one night but enjoyed it. The staff was friendly and gave great travel recommendations. It was clean and they offered us a free room upgrade which was very kind. They helped us try to coordinate travelling to other islands and answered our questions. The location was a little bit isolated but still not too far from the Charles Darwin research centre and from restaurants.

The property is lovely and secluded but within walking distance of everything. The owners are lovely and the breakfast is delicious. We spent a lot of time at the pool. A great stay!

The Haro family has created a gem, impeccably attended to, with interior/exterior attention to detail at the property shockingly beautiful. The volcanic rock, tile, wood interface inside and out is wonderful to behold. The suites are beautiful, the pool, though small, is immaculate, and great for laps. The outdoor kitchen where each breakfast is served is quaint and delightful. One simply can’t believe that such a charming beautiful property could even exist within the rough hewn untamed beauty of the Galapagos. Just a short walk to the town square with fabulous restaurants, every mouthful is delectable. The Haro’s have created a grand slice of Heaven on Earth and have given their heart, mind and soul to this property. BRAVO. If only other hotel owners took such pride in presenting themselves to their clients!🙏

Gianna is a fabulous host! Her castle-inspired hotel is spacious, welcoming, and impeccably clean. Gianna knows everything about the Galapagos and helped me get the most of my short stay on Santa Cruz and Isabela. Highly recommended.
