I was lucky enough to travel with friends who were very familiar with Isla Isabela in the Galapagos. The Dolphin Hotel in Puerto Villamil is always their choice and with good reason - great owners and service staff; very clean and very affordable; and right on the beach. The hotel is located a little over a mile from ocean entry... More

The staff at hotel dolphin was excellent. Very helpful in making our stay on isabela the best that it could be. We ate breakfast there and it was very good. Very clean rooms with air conditioning. The location is great, right downtown, 3 minute walk to restaurants and tour agencies. This hotel is right on a beautiful beach which was... More

We originally booked a hotel at the Comorrant but saw the place and walked away. Then we went to the busiest hotel, Casa Rosada, had a look at the rooms and thought they looked trashy. We were desperate and would have stayed there, but the owner didn't have any more rooms and highly recommended Hotel Volcano. We ended up spending... More

This hotel was arranged for us by Galapagos Alternative. It was very clean and the view was great. It was wonderful to leave the windows open at night to hear the sound of the ocean. Staff was friendly and breakfast was very good. Location was just right - close enough to the center of town but far enough away to... More

We stayed as a family of 4, on one of the top floor units. Hotel is on the beach, with beach view in some rooms. Our room had a nice shared deck with fantastic view of the beach! Rooms are very clean. Installations are very basic though. AC didn't work in our room, but there were 3 windows so we... More

If your traveling in the Galapagos Islands with a tight budget this is your place. We stayed there for 2 nights and we couldn't be happier. Although Pto. Villamil is really small, the location of the hotel is amazing right in front of the beach and a block away from the central park, the flamingos lagoon, restaurants, drugstores, etc. Make... More

We got to Puerto Villamil without reservations and had to find a place to sleep. We checked out about 6 different hotels before we decided on the Dolphin House. The reason we picked this place because a) A lot of other places were booked - there were a couple of other hotels that looked really cute, but were all sold... More

We actually stayed in the Caleta Iguana for one night before moving to this place. We loved it here. The room was very clean and had AC, hot water, mini fridge and a small lock box (lock not included). We had room #6 which was on the second floor with an ocean view. The woman running the place does not... More
