Location, ambirnce, restaurant, staff. We spent 4 nights and had eaten only at their place with the deck and ocean view. Very efficient AC, flexible attitude as we were allowed to check in at 9AM. Will return.

The location right on the beach was excellent. The room was spacious and well laid out. Staff was incredible. Our first room was at the end of the walkway into the complex, so there was no privacy whatsoever unless we closed the blinds, but then we'd lose the excellent view. Our second room was so much better for us. Also, I injured my ankle during my stay. Lovely Melia accompanied us to the nearby medical center to interpret for us and make sure I got the care I needed. That, to me, was beyond customer service. They really care about their guests.

Hotel is located in the second row of the beach. There is party at the beach (Pink Iguana Bar) on Fridays and Saturdays. I heard guests with rooms facing the beach complaining about noise during weekend nights. My room was facing the back country. With my windows closed I did not hear anything during weekend nights.

The staff here are so lovely and friendly, and helped us with a taxi back to the ferry.
The hotels location is amazing, right by the beach. However, I do only think the hotel is worth it if you pay for a beach front room and have a balcony overlooking the beach to get the nice view!

We enjoyed Isabel Island the most of the three Islands we stayed at. Fantastic wildlife. The sunrises and sunsets, long beach walks, Los Tunnels Tour, bike rental, trails, tortoise natural reserve, plenty of shops for fresh fish and produce, plenty of restaurants with delicious food, panaderias with baked goods and early morning coffee. Awesome locals that were very friendly and helpful. Exceeded all our expectations.

We enjoyed traveling beyond Santa Cruz Island for a few nights, just to experience the "vibe" of a different island. The town of Puerto Villamil is relaxed, very friendly and a charming beach town. Most of the area is walkable, though taxis were very cheap (less than $5).

Isabela is a backpacker's destination with very poor infrastructure and low level restaurants. And it's extremely expensive for a European, especially if you come from a non Euro-country given the appreciation of the USD. We struggled to find a decent restaurant and it turned out that the Mexican was the best (full every night). To give you an example of cost, a main course was between USD19-30 which in eg Spain would have been aprox USD8. Price/quality ratio is among the worst we've experienced.
Ecuador, especially the islands, is a cash only-no receipt-economy with the purpose of squeezing the last dollar out of the tourists. We left with few intentions of returning which is a shame given the amazing animals and nature. People are mostly very friendly and helpful which was a nice.

The laid-back beach town vibes here are so much different than Puerto Ayora and Puerto Baquerizo Moreno on the other islands. We loved the relaxing atmosphere and I wish we'd planned this stop toward the end of the trip instead of right at the beginning. Make sure you do a trip to Los Tuneles while you're there - the scenery is fantastic and it was the best snorkeling we had on our week in the islands.

Puerto Villamil is small but welcoming and very beautiful with great opportunities for snorkeling, walking, biking, swimming, kayaking etc. Most restaurants seem to serve "pizza" for tourists, but it's possible to avoid that for more traditional and delicious fare. The local beer is good, the people are friendly and it's well worth the effort to visit. The wildlife is spread around the island, but you can experience an incredible variety in the near vicinity - flamingos, penguins, sea lions, manta rays, sea horses, turtles, tortoises, iguanas, lava lizards, blue-footed/nazca boobies and other incredible sea birds, sharks and colourful fishes, I can't wait to go back :)

Nice place, really relaxing.
Nice place, really relaxing. Not too many good options to go out for dinner and the nice restaurants are quite expensive. But this is the rule in Galapagos.
If you don't have much money, I would not recommend to stay many nights here, because the day trips are hugely expensive and there is not many free options otherwise staying in the central beach.

Excellent Apartment Hotel in Isabela, our host Nancy was attentive and communicated with us during our entire stay, she was willing to help us with anything. The hotel seems brand new! The kitchen, with coffee maker, is a really nice to have, especially if you plan on a more extended stay. Drinking water was provided and much appreciated. The hotel is a 7-10min easy walk from downtown/beach, little "tienda" market next door. Our favorite stay in Galapagos, would not hesitate to stay here again! Thank you!
Easy to reach and walkable from the pier! Room was clean, although being a bit worn off (which wasn’t a negative thing).
Included breakfast was okay in buffet style.
Friendly instructions from staff on tours on Isabela, as the hotel also includes a tour office (however, definitely worth comparing prices, as they were more expensive compares to other agencies in town)
Right in opposite of the accommodation you can find a small cafe with delicious coffee! Super close to the beach as well.
What lovely people Amelia and Jackson were - they were very kind and caring, making sure we were OK during our stay, including helping when I was ill. Jackson helped with booking ferries and tours and Amelia is such a kind lady, she met us from the ferry and gave us a tour of Puerto Villamil. The place is undergoing some building works and will be amazing when it is completed. In the meantime however it was a clean and quiet place and we really enjoyed our stay.
Cute room with a sweet little balcony overlooking part of Puerto Villamil. The room had AC which was nice as it can get pretty warm and muggy on the island. Shower was nice and hot! The staff was super friendly and ready to help with anything! Perfect location as well, only 10 min walk to the port and around the corner from a super yummy restaurant called Gracias Madre. Also central to other restaurants and tour guide spots; bike rentals nearby.
Casita de la Playa is just a beautiful hotel situated on the beach. Rooms were lovely most with a view. The staff was superb and very helpful with everything and anything. Housekeeping was great, towels were lovely, rooms have ac, very spacious, clean and fresh.
Breakfast was made fresh daily, plentiful and very delicious. Reception was most helpful with local information, tours and any needs they went above and beyond. Thank you!
The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was very good. The hotel has a nice outdoor area that we used to relax in the evening and read. The rooms are clean and comfortable. We just used them to sleep. The internet service was good, we used it to answer e-mails and navigate the internet to find information about the islands. The hotel is about 5 min walk from the center of Isabella where the restaurants are located.
Quiet, clean, wonderful layout and the ocean is always at your door step.
staff very friendly and owners very engaging and super helpful.
Internet service is intermittent but functional.
the views from either rooftop balconies are absolutely spectacular (ocean in the front mangroves in the back…one evening we saw pink flamingoes soar right behind the hotel)
would stay here again and again!
Isabela Beach House was amazing. I've been to over 25 countries. Stayed in hundreds of hotels. And Isabela Beach House was my absolute favorite. Our room opened right up to the beach. The staff was amazing---from the extremely affable and attentive proprietor to the cleaning staff. Everything and everyone was top-notch. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Definitely the best place to stay in Puerto Villamil. One of the nicest helpful hosts that we’ve experienced and we travel full time for 7 years. clean, well located and the best hospitality. Book it and arrange your tours directly thru the host as she can get you the best prices and coordinate it all.
the owner is very sweet! she also has a great reputation around town. we were gifted a free surfboard rental by a man in town, only because we were staying at her hotel! she also was able to get us ferry tickets when the tour agencies in town could not! this lady is spectacular!
I booked this hotel but when I was met at the ferry I was told that Hostal Villamil was not open and I was going to be staying at La Laguna which was a free upgrade. I think that they must be linked, very happy with La Laguna, lovely hotel. Can not comment on Villamil!
This hotel is a great value! It's at the far end of town so its pretty quiet, but within a 10 minute walk of the town center. Right on the beach, communal kitchen and dining area, good water, clean rooms, and the staff are extremely nice!
The staff was super friendly, the hotel is quite new with spacious rooms and has nice views. The pool was clean and there were always fresh towels waiting for you. If you have an early activity or ferry they will give you a lunch box.
Our host Abel made sure we had everything covered: he organized tours as well as recommendations on local activities and and around Puerto Villamil. The aircon units and the onsite water dispenser are very useful in this hot place.
Great location. Great breakfast on top floor (included in hotel fee). Clean room. Helpful front desk staff. Water and coffee available in lobby at no extra charge. Other drinks available in lobby at extra cost. Room has a safe.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. I left something at the hotel and they organised it to be sent to another island for me. They provided free snorkels and had reasonable bike rental. Would highly recommend a stay here!
Hotel is located just opposite the beautiful beach.
The attention from the staff was great!
Very nice rooms with attention to the details.
Breakfast was good, pool was an added bonus.
Great location. The room was nice and very clean. The staff was was nice and always available. I would rebook in Bar de Beto hotel if i go back to Isabela!!
Met us at ferry to take us to hotel. Walked with us around the town to show us good places to eat and how to find our way back to hotel. Good breakfast.
