Casita de la Playa
8.8 (54 reviews)

Casita de la Playa ★★★

📍 Malecon S/N, Puerto Villamil

"The staff are very nice and have even given us the bigger apartment for the first two days. Unfortunately, the equipment was not perfect in the bathroom. But whoever is perfectly looking is in Ecuador on the wrong place."

Iguana Crossing Boutique Hotel
8.8 (70 reviews)

Iguana Crossing Boutique Hotel ★★★

📍 Av. Antonio Gil, Isabela Island

"The hotel photographs well and has a nice outdoor seating area around a pool facing the ocean. However, get ocean front rooms. We were booked a "volcanoe " view room, which really just faces the back yard looked into dining room and hall. The manager was helpful and sympathetic and changed us for two nights to ocean front room, which was better. The breakfast buffet was basic at best. I think this is a fine place to stay if you got ocean front rooms, but given it is quite a bit more expensive than other hotels on island, I would look elsewhere."

La Casa de Marita

La Casa de Marita ★★★

📍 Nuestra ubicación Conocarpus, Puerto Villamil

"Our group had the most wonderful stay at Casa de Marita. The staff were fabulous - special thanks to Jonathan, Gabriel and the team who went above and beyond to make sure we all had a great stay - helping us book day tours and made fantastic cocktails. We loved being able to sit outside right at he table on the sand, and all of the hammocks were divine. The rooms were beautiful - I was in Lila Oceanfront Suite. Great breakfasts, lunches and dinners. The location near town and close to the pier and snorkelling at Concha la Perla was great. If you are planning to stay on Isabela do not go past Casa de Marita."

Galápagos Isabela Hotel Loja ★★★

📍 y los Cactus, Av. 16 de marzo, Isabela Island

"Diego and Betsy are exceptional hosts — they arranged our Tintoreras and Los Túneles tours plus our ferries to and from Isabela seamlessly, with on-time pickups and fast WhatsApp communication throughout. They even loaned us snorkel equipment and gave great restaurant recommendations. The hotel is comfortable and relaxing, with a pool and hammocks perfect after long tour days, and an easy walk to the main square, beach, and dock. Los Túneles was the best day of our whole trip. If you’re staying on Isabela, stay here. ¡Gracias Diego y Betsy!"

Isamar Hotel
9.0 (53 reviews)

Isamar Hotel ★★★

📍 Escalecias y Conocarpus, 200103, Puerto Villamil

"This island hotel is a real gem. When checking into our room, I was extremely distressed when I realized the AC was not working (it was in the mid 80's and quite humid outside). I told the front desk and they said all the rooms were full, but they would have the maintenance man come by. We were booked for a 3 day stay and I was mentally melting down thinking that on a small island, what were the chances that this could be resolved in a timely manner? To my surprise and delight, the maintenance man had a new room AC until installed and working perfectly within 2-3 hours. I was amazed and forever grateful as we had a packed schedule and needed sleep! In addition to that, the hotel staff were all pleasant and accomodating. The patio was delightful with lounge chairs, tables and a beautiful view. The rooms were very clean. I highly recommend this hotel!"

"This is a great place to stay at a reasonable price, especially if you need a bit of guidance on how to get the best out of a short stay on Isabela. Our host, Jackson, know the best tours and can arrange everything for you. He also took us on a walking tour of the town, painting out the best places to watch and shop."

Mi Playa Galapagos Beachfront Hotels in Isabela Island

"Book early and stay longer! This is a real keeper on Isabela. Two bedrooms with room for four, and a fifth downstairs if needed. But best of all - and that is saying something because the flats are directly on the beach - is the lovely breakfast prepared in the flat every morning. There is much to choose from, and typically too much food, but you can’t start your day any better. Huge thanks to Steven from the Hotel Isamar property for helping us and generally taking care of us so attentively. A solid professional, he made everything even more perfect. Thank you sir!"

Hotel Cally Hotels in Isabela Island

Hotel Cally

" On arrival the friendly receptionist helped me to carry my suitcase up the stairs and managed my room change. First I had a room on the second floor with windows/glass door towards the hotel hallway. Thankfully it was no problem to change to a room on the 4th floor which was huge and had a balcony with ocean view. The breakfast was served - yoghurt, fruits, cereal, toast, eggs, cheese. I would have preferred a buffet, because I still felt a bit hungry afterwards ( I have body mass index 21). All in all it is a nice, clean hotel and I liked my room, the view and the location. + The island is lovely.. "

Iguana Crossing Boutique Hotel ★★★
"I'm very disappointed in the hotel. So far we have had indifferent service. I have lost an expensive watch whilst here and asked for an official form to report it. I was offered a scrap of paper which I declined. No concern was shown. There is a distinct lack of enthusiasm in the staff. Luckily the location is amazing and a short walk takes you to friendly bars and restaurants. The room is clean and spacious. If the staff had been more proactive this would have had a higher rating. The indifference is frustrating given this is supposed to be a luxury boutique hotel."

Cormorant Beach House ★★★
"In addition to facing the beach, the hotel is doing very poorly in other aspects. The WiFi upstairs is extremely weak and can't be connected to the Internet at all. There are few types of breakfast, the juice is very difficult to drink, and the breakfast in the 1300-night room is not even as good as the breakfast in the 130 room. It is recommended to avoid lightning!"

La Casa de Marita ★★★
"Stayed here for three nights on a tour with our family. We had four over 70 year olds and little kids. The hotel appears to have been built in phases over time so the rooms are a patchwork. Pros: Plentiful outside seating facing a great beach where you can see penguins, sea lions and other wildlife. Good beach for kids to swim as well. We enjoyed the cocktail and tapas happy hour in the evening for sun downers. The owner lives across the street and greeted us on check in which was a nice touch. Cons: Many of the rooms do not offer sea views - none of ours did and the rooms were kind of like caves with minimal sunlight. They also had a ton of stairs to get to! One of our rooms had 28 narrow, curvy stairs just to access. Fine for younger folks but beware if stairs are an issue. The restaurant is a third floor walk up - again no issue for most of us but we had a couple folks with mild mobility issues and this was an issue. Restaurant service was not the best - the first night we ordered our food at 630 and it arrived at 8 PM - and it took the staff an hour to inform my husband that what he ordered was no longer available. Breakfast staff were more attentive. Food was tasty though."

Hotel Volcano ★★★
"This hotel was arranged by our travel agency. The manager and the front desk staff were very accommodating and gave us an upgrade to a sea view room. They scheduled breakfasts around our planned excursions. This is our best Galapagos hotel so far and this is our third island"

Galápagos Isabela Hotel Loja ★★★
"I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Loja! It is located in the center, just a few hundred meters from the beach. The room and bathroom was clean and spacious, and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was lovely, and the common area is very nice as well. Diego, the manager, is service-minded and helpful. He was kind enough to lend me a snorkel and help me with booking a tour. He was also very helpful when I had troubles with said tour. I really enjoyed my stayed at this hotel."

Isamar Hotel ★★★
"We were looking for a hotel on the beach that was reasonably priced and this fit the criteria! Our favorite part was that there were a few coves that the baby sea lions loved to play in. All we had to do was walk out of our hotel room and on to the beach to spend a day with those cuties! The beach was beautiful and right adjacent to the property. The rooms that overlook the beach have the lounge chairs for the hotel and some tables out in front of them so I don't think that they were too private and I am glad I didn't choose those. Breakfast was good and customer service was nice. Laundry was way over-priced and I should have looked elsewhere, but hubby wasn't feeling good and I was feeling lazy so I forked over $32 for a small load of clothes to be cleaned. At least it was effortless and they were nicely folded and completed the next day. We were able to check in early when the morning ferry arrived (very convenient), but were not able to check out late. --Maybe because I didn't plan ahead. However, we were able to store our luggage and hang out at Hotel Isamar on the beach and lounge chairs until the afternoon ferry on the day we departed. They had available bathrooms and showers that we could use even though we didn't have our room. It is (sort of) within walking distance of the ferry. We walked it when we arrived with our 2 large rollerbags."

Hotel Albemarle ★★★
"We had a great stay at Albemarle, the staff was fantastic and the views amazing. Stayed there for three nights and four days, and loved the closenes to the ocean and the «city» center. Being able to just run over to the tour operators and book a last minute tour is great. Drawbacks: -One of the bathrooms had a distinct sewer smell -The wifi was slow when in worked, and it mostly didn’t work -The gluten free options were limited even though we told about this beforehand -The laundry service was very expensive The great staff and the amazing view lifts this from a 3 star to a 4 star rating!"
