"We had a lovely night at the lodge. It was a family run hotel who made us feel so welcome.
The bed was huge and comfortable, the family were on hand for absolutely anything. They even came running out with umbrellas as we headed out for a walk in the rain.

"Hotel Mainao is a hidden gem in Puerto Ayora. Spacious, clean rooms, delicious breakfast offerings, courteous and efficient staff, and striking Barcelona-inspired architecture make this family - owned hotel a top choice when holidaying in the Galápagos. "
"The hotel location is close enough to what you would like to see or walk to and yet far enough away that it is peaceful and quiet. The room I had was spacious and cleaned daily. The staff was very helpful and available to answer your questions. The rooms face the bay, some completely and others partly. There is a good restaurant attached to the property and many shops, restaurants and tour offices within walking distance. "

Commune with nature and explore the great outdoors at Las Ninfas Lagoon during your travels in Puerto Ayora. While you're here, you can savor the top-notch restaurants.
Make sure you walk down the two piers at night. We saw turtles, rays, sharks and sea lions. Also, lots of local restaurants with 5$ daily choices!

Compared to the other islands it is more expensive, but has more facilities. Restaurants were busy, lots of places to buy most things. It is easy to walk to town as long as you are prepared for the heat. Some lovely beaches and snorkelling spots.

Easy place to walk around. Loads of supermarkets, restaurants, bakeries,tour agencies. A bus runs into the Highlands for a dollar, to see the tortoise ranch. See loads of small sharks and stingrays at night by the pier.

The Galapagos are beautiful and the 85% humidity and 30 degree C temps make it a hot venue. Be prepared to spend CASH everywhere - using taxis is expected. Visiting any other neighbouring island will cost $25 USD each way pp.
