Jessica was amazing! She was so helpful and kind. Loved the location and facilities. I have no complaints. The kitchen upstairs was always clean and stocked with the right appliances. Loved how close we were to the locals and we could hear roosters singing in the morning.

We requested a seaview room for 3 ladies staying toghether. The Tropic Bird room with the extra bed was very spacious, with it's own balcony. A very convenient location with it's own dock, so very easy to get a water taxi ($1) into town. Roof top viewing, so we could wave off our intrepid sailors. Dining room right on the water, breakfast was delicious with at least 3 varied choices. Evening meal was also delicious. An easy walk to La Crevitas. The Finch Bay Resort and small beach is a 5 min walk. The Friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable staff. Who also organized our assisted transfer to the airport.

    Nice town with plenty of restaurants, shops and pubs: I liked a bit more Puerto Villamill on Isabella Island which is not as developed as Puerto Ayora. Very good one day excursions: I'd recommend to shop around and buy excursion on site to avoid surcharge from the agencies

    Wildlife is within easy walking distance.

    Wildlife is within easy walking distance. No need for a tour to see marine iguanas, sea lions, Sally Lightfoot crabs, and brown pelicans. Blue-footed boobies and frigatebirds fly near the pier. Sharks are always near the pier and sea turtles come by occasionly. The walk out to Las Grietas is pleasant but the water, even though very scenic, is Very cold. Touristy and expensive restaurants are along Charles Darwin Street. Inexpensive restaurants are on Binford Street where a meal with a fruit juice drink is $5 or $6. Good food. Giant lobster tail for $30.

    We visited the Galapagos Islands on a 11 day trip.

    We visited the Galapagos Islands on a 11 day trip. What a memorable trip. We spent 5 days at Puerto Ayora (Santa Cruz) and three days on the islands of San Cristobal and Isabela. We enjoyed Puerto Ayora the most since there were more choices for restaurants and retail stores. The Puerto Ayora day trips to Tortuga Bay, El Chato Ranch - Giant Tortoise Reserve and the Las Grietas (Bay Tour) were the most memorable excursions while in Puerto Ayora. Numerious seafood restaurant options were available at the Puerto Ayora. Numerious travel agencies are available to book day excursions. Bring sun protection since the sun is extremely hot when ther are few clouds and refillable water bottles for hydration. Also when snorkeling wear long rash guards to protect from the sun, jellyfish, cold water and sharp volcanic rock especially snorkeling throught the Tuneles on Isabela island.

    Puerto Ayora in Santa Cruz is the most developed place for tourism within the Galapagos islands. There are plenty of places to eat, walk, beaches, transportation (cars and boats). There are so many things to do and see, we found out that asking taxi drivers for places to visit is useful.

    The hotel itself was cool and quirky, the main reason why I booked this place. I believe all rooms are individually decorated which is a nice touch. The location of the hotel is quiet but close enough to the fish market and a few restaurants, no where in puerto ayora is difficult to get to by walking it's only a small town. The shower was hot once the tap had been run and I'd say that the WiFi was 'Decent' compared to other hotels on the island.

    A very nice hotel. New, clean, nice swimming pool. Rich breakfast. Located very close to the main street, restaurants and fish market. Rooms facing the pool are quieter but less bright. It doesn't matter, both options are good. The service is very engaging. Emilia, Carolina, José and others do everything to make guests happy. We recommend this hotel for your stay in beautiful Puerto Ayora.
