Great Place to Stay for Island Hopping.
Very good hotel - seems like one of the best in Puerto Ayora. Rooms were very large and bathrooms were nice. Food was OK, but breakfast was really good. This is a great place to stay if you are looking for a luxury hotel to couple with many day excursions. Great views from the restaurant.
