The location is approx. 5-10 mins walk into the small town. It is beautifully situated right by the waters and is really peaceful. The room is clean and decent. There is drinkable water supplied. Really enjoyed my stay in this beautiful water front lodge. Great place for going for morning walks.
The lodges look out over the sea and you fall asleep listening to the waves. No mosquitoes when we were here in March. Beds are comfortable, the shower is good & there is a flushing toilet. It's a short walk to the beach to go snorkelling or kayaking, and there is an on-site restaurant.
I do have mixed feelings about staying here. The location is amazing, right on the beach in Floreana where you can watch the sea from the deck and see turtles, seals and birds or walk to the sandy area to snorkel in a deserted bay. The small cabins are tiny and really need some basic maintenance. Our door didn’t fit, the insect screens were broken, the air con and the safe didn’t work. The towels were frayed and we were told we had to keep the same ones during the stay. The whole place looked neglected with dilapidated and rusting deck furniture. The only staff we saw were two ladies who appeared to cook breakfast in the morning. There was no way of getting a drink.. no kettle available and the water dispenser was empty. We had to wait to get a toilet roll. I do appreciate that Floreana has only a small population and this is supposed to be a natural wildlife retreat but I still feel that basic standards should be met if you are selling this as overpriced accommodation. …
There are very limited choices when you visit Floreana, home to 130 persons when we stayed for 2 nights. Floreana feels very safe. So we did not worry about our room which opened to the dining area but could not be locked. This was a great place compared to the other lodging where the rest of our G Adventures group stayed. Clean, spacious. Internet is "iffy to non-existent" as with many places on Floreana. Nice fan helped with night-time noises and temperatures. Friendly, helpful hosts. Breakfast one morning for our group of 16 was excellent. Would not hesitate to stay again 🐢
Beautiful, quiet, rustic, happy place. Owners on the ground help with all...guiding, organic gardens, just 5 minute walk to Galapagos National Park, Best snorkeling around...beautiful beaches, wonderful food.
