We booked here because Finch Bay was full, and we’re SO glad we did! The hotel is spectacular. Its restaurant is the best in town, located directly on the water, where our kids loved watching the sharks swim by during dinner and breakfast. The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating. The room was spacious, the beds comfortable and everything exceptionally clean. There’s also a small tide pool on the property where our kids loved to swim and look for crabs. And it’s also a short walk to a gorgeous beach (Allemania Beach) with some of the best snorkeling we had on the island. Oh, and in the evening the staff allowed our kids to watch a movie in the main room while my husband and and I enjoyed our dinner outside. We loved our stay!

    “Excellent dining experience in breakfast and dinner. The family room was large and with great view. The facility and room were always clean. We felt the animals close in the hotel, with visit of iguana, sea lion, and finchis, and we could find sharks and rays in the sea. The staffs were friendly and helpful.”

    “L’emplacement est parfait, au bord de la mer et proche de la plage. Depuis le ponton de l’hôtel, vous pourrez apercevoir: otaries, requins de récifs, crabes, tortues de mer, pélicans, frégates, hérons et iguanes). La literie est très bonne. Les lits sont très grands. La climatisation fonctionnait bien. Le pot d’accueil est délicieux (préparé par le barman Daniel qui mérite sincèrement une promotion) Nous étions informés de la nécessité de prendre un bateau-taxi pour nous rendre en ville (ce qui participe au charme de l’hôtel et permet de rendre l’emplacement beaucoup plus privé) Le restaurant est tout simplement délicieux (malgré le temps d’attente un peu long - comme partout en Equateur).”

    “Čistota pokojů, příjemný personál a vlastní restaurace, takže jsme nemuseli na večeře chodit daleko.”

  • Overvalued, outdated, did not meet our expectations. Outdated rooms with tiny double bed.

    “Breakfast was good, all fresh made but we were in a rush to get our transport and said so at the start. It still took 40minutes to get our breakfast.”
