Great location and value for a clean, safe and comfortable stay in Puerto Ayora. Good fresh breakfast on the rooftop with a great view to start the day. Owner Carlos is very helpful in recommendations and meeting guest needs. Our room was spacious and clean. Water refill station in common areas. Easy 5-7 minute walk to ferry and most restaurants within 10-15 minutes. We will return in a few days for another few nights.

I can’t recommend this place highly enough. The property manager is an absolute gem, he helped with everything. Carried my bags, held my bags after checkout, returned something left in the room, flagged taxis from the main road, gave great directions on where to find things, offered me his own sunscreen, etc. This place is not the most fully featured hotel in Puerto Ayora (no pool for example) but for the price, I don’t think it can be beat. Shower, AC all worked great, balcony to watch the sun set, breakfast next door included was great, bed is absolutely massive. Would stay here again for sure.

Fantastic hotel and reception that goes above and beyond to answer any questions, help in any way and make you feel like you are part of the family. Hotel has a common area/kitchen with cooking capabilities and fridge available for all guests to use which was a very nice bonus!

What really makes Posada del Mar stand out is its location. Its perfectly located for its price. Literally a few minutes from the port. Close to all key spots in Puerto Ayora. Second thing is the loveliness of the staff. I loved them and they made me feel at home. I would return in part for their kindness The room itself was just ok. My balcony faced the city, not the sea, shower was a bit tricky (but did manage to get hot and cold water) and I had two single beds, but that’s also normal I think the room I chose. The lock to the balcony door was a bit tricky and old. So overall not super modern amenities, but don’t let it deflect you from booking there. If you stay in the Galapagos, time spent in your room is, or at least, should be minimal!

Front desk was excellent. Property was well located. There are a lot of stairs, even the 1st floor will be up about 18 steps. If you want variety of breakfast options dont go with the included breakfast. Only two options American and Ecuadoran.
