Special beach gem.

Truly amazing view that we could not get enough of. Our accommodation led straight onto the beach. Staff super friendly.
Jo, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful right on the beach. Staff is very helpful. Beds comfortable. Not luxury but amazing views and location.
Judith, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A beautiful hotel right on the beach. We were able to upgrade to a walk-out room when we arrived and we were so glad we did. The bed was very comfortable and linens pristine. The staff were friendly and accommodating and the roof top breakfast was wonderful in the mornings. Not to mention the breathtaking beach right outside your door. I would highly recommend and definitely visit again!

An amazing place to stay in Isabella

I cannot recommend the Cormorant and it’s amazing stuff enough! Not only did they make our stay unforgettable, not only did they go above and beyond to allow us to refresh after a long day (even after we had checked out) but they have the best breakfast in the Galapagos!
Marios, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

There is a beautiful ocean view where you could sleep and relax during your stay. That's worth!
Monica, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

This hotel has a great location and view. The Staff are very friendly and provide a great service. The only reason I will give this hotel 1 star is because everything is great as long as you don't have any issues, concerns or emergencies (like in my case). I paid for 4 nights, however, I had a family emergency and I needed to leave the island on the third night. I requested to see if I could get a refund for the night/day I wasn't going to stay (28 hrs in advance), but the Manager (Michelle, who doesn't even live in the island) declined it because I needed to give them a 72 hrs notice. Well, I wish my family emergency would also give me a 72 hrs notice so I can plan my life accordingly. The hotel wasn't even full, maybe 3 or 4 more rooms were full, so I'm guessing they simply didn't want to give me a refund because they didn't want to loose money. We left and I will not recommend this place because they are not willing to help during difficult times.

This property could not get any closer to the beach - you simply walk out of the lobby onto beautiful golden sands - perfect! The hotel was lovely, the staff were kind and accommodating and the terrace where we had breakfast was incredible. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Beste Lage direkt am Strand!!!

Das war unsere beste Unterkunft in der ganzen Reise. Direkt am wunderschönem Strand. Alles andere hat auch gepasst. Können es sehr weiterempfehlen.

What a view

This tucked away hotel right on the beach was a lovely way to end our journeys in the Galapagos. We had a beach facing second floor room and loved it. Breakfast on the rooftop was yummy and everything modern and clean. Easy walking to restaurants and the numerous tour companies. Had a baby seal hang out on one of our lounge chairs all day. Adorable.

Awesome Place to Stay

This hotel was in a great location on the beach. We walked out of our room right onto the beach and close to everything. We had the cutest sea lion that has been living alone at the hotel that is so adorable. Nice breakfast on the rooftop is nice. The hotel is very clean and beds were so comfy and the air conditioning is very good.
Jennifer Cristin, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Rather pricey for an average property which makes sense for the lactation right on the beach. Sea or ocean huggers will love this property.
Kyeong-Sook, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Somewhat understandable why this place is pricy. Overall pleasant stay. It’s a great place for beach huggers. I’m not one but no complaints.

Schönes und sauberes kleineres Hotel direkt am Strand. Vom Zimmer zum Sandstrand sind es nur 2 Stufen. Freundliches Personal. Reichhaltiges Frühstücksbuffet wird auf der Dachterrasse angeboten. Kann das Hotel sehr empfehlen.
Marcel, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very clean, spacious rooms appearing to be recently renovated with gorgeous view and ability to hear the ocean. Felt like paradise. Had amenities such as toiletries and hair dryer. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful, able to have laundry washed for us for a small fee. Breakfast was great with fresh fruit, various breads, meats and eggs cooked to order. We enjoyed sitting outside on the beach under the umbrellas. Only complaint was 2 episodes of no water for flushing toilets, washing face or showering at night. Likely a water pressure issue uncontrollable by the hotel but thought it should be mentioned. It was a minor inconvenience. Overall we loved our stay here.
Virginia L., 3-night trip

Amazing

The hotel is literally on the beach with an amazing view. Rooms are spacious and clean and the bed was very comfortable. Free coffee and filtered water in the lobby were a nice little bonus. Staff were super attentive and their recommendations were excellent. Would definitely recommend.
Ivaylo, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a beautiful two story hotel right on the sand, open and light, and had security cameras in public areas (which was comforting even though we never felt them necessary). It is close to everything (central market area, restaurants, beach bars) and highly walkable to elsewhere, but on the quiet side of island which was nice for sleeping. Reception always had someone available and helpful when we needed them and Nathalia even assisted us with a tour snafu that was not her fault/problem. Very clean and comfortable with really strong wifi, amazing rainfall shower with hotel-branded toiletries, AC unit in room, towels provided for the beach, and there was filtered water available in the lobby. There was a free and delicious breakfast with different specials each day (yogurt, granola, donuts, banana pancakes, plantains, bacon, made to order eggs/omelettes, waffles, fruit, fresh juices, variety of bread, and more) on the second floor beach patio. We saw other guests at breakfast each day but felt like the only ones there otherwise. I will say that we wished we’d splurged on an ocean-front room once we saw the beautiful beach! Lots of marine iguanas everywhere, rays, and some sharks visible from the shore. Highly recommend staying here, we would have loved to have moved in forever!

Beautiful place on Isabela

I had a short but sweet stay here. This hotel was a base for my multiple tours in Isabela. The breakfast and the ladies who served/cooked it were lovely. My room was spacious and had nice toiletries. And when I had to leave early for a 6 am ferry, the front desk (Jose) very kindly packed up a breakfast for me, which was much appreciated

Great hotel right on the beach

Lovely location right on the beach. Also only 2 minutes walk to the restaurants in the town. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast in the rooftop cafe is fantastic. Just a really nice little hotel for the price point.

Nice property right on the beach. Friendly staff who were helpful with recommendations. Rooms were small but sufficient for our needs. Breakfast each morning was good and there was something different offered in addition to eggs which was nice.
