Hotel in zona Tortuga Bay, Puerto Ayora

Struttura molto bella in pieno stile eco chic Galapagos. Personale molto professionale, cortese e disponibile. Ristorante di qualità estremamente elevata, apprezzato anche dagli ospiti esterni. Posizione comoda per raggiungere Puerto Ayora (shuttle boat sempre disponibile e gratuita su richiesta), las Grietas e Tortuga Bay. Affacciato su una spiaggia. Escursioni condotte con elevata professionalità e standard di servizio con guide molto qualificate. Camere gradevoli, moderne e funzionali, ma non lussuose, di dimensioni limitate, purtroppo molto costose. Rapporto qualità prezzo non ottimale.

We stayed for 4 nights and had a lovely time. The real pluses are the fantastic pool area, very clean with large variety of loungers and great Jacuzzis (albeit a bit hot) The other real benefit if the great location, 5 minutes walk to town and restaurants, but very quiet and secluded in lovely garden areas. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is brought to you and pretty much the same each day but perfectly adequate. The only reason I would not give a 5, is that the rooms are a bit basic and feel quite tired. The bed is huge and bedding is very clean. There is however very little storage space beyond a small rail and only one towel hook in the bathroom. The AC however is very efficient.

We (me, my wife and our 5Y old daughter) stayed in Capitan Max B&B for five nights and it was literally perfect - best lodging experience in Ecuador hands down. After booking the room one of the hosts (Lourdes) contacted me and shared all the information I needed when arriving in Galapagos and she also offered a selection of tours we could take once on the islands. We booked two day tours and one tour on the island through them (incl. pick-up from the airport) and with her suggestions, we were able to see exactly what we came there for. The tours were done by respectable companies, everything went very smoothly and the pricing was fair. So I would definitely suggest organizing your day trips through them as well, no need to waste your time searching online or on the main street, you probably won't get a better offer. When we arrived, we were greeted and taken care of by the friendliest guy you ever meet - mr Pedro. He had some very good tips on the Santa Cruz island hotspots and how to get around town, he made a delicious breakfast, helped us with all the questions and even let us use his personal computer so we could participate on our parliamentary elections! Thank you so much! The room was clean and very nice, the hammock in a room was of course the instant favorite of our girl. The cleaning lady was placing her dolls in different places every day after she cleaned the room so every time we arrived from our day trip or a hike, our daughter could not wait to see where her dolls are this time. It was a nice game and it showed that all of the staff added something extra to our experience. B&B is situated just a few blocks (minutes) from marina and there are plenty of good restaurants nearby so you could not find a better spot to stay in Puerto Ayora. And you should also check out a little lagoon that is just around the corner - we were able to see sea turtles, seals and a lot of fish swimming there and the birdlife was also nice. So all of this review is a big praise to Capitan Max B&B and I feel it is justified. My regular reviews are not that exuberant but this time there literally was nothing they could have done better. They exceeded our expectations in many ways and made our Galapagos trip very memorable. When we talk about our trip then besides all the fantastic highlights of the nature that the archipelago offers, we always mention our lodging. So if you are going to stay in Puerto Ayora for some nights, then the only excuse why you should not stay in Capitan Max B&B is that they are fully booked on these dates.

I saw in the review that this hotel was budget, but it felt like luxury. Amazing price for what you get. It was my 60-something year old parents and my boyfriend and I, who are in our 30’s. Coming from Isabella Island, we arrived 3 hours early for check-in, yet the family who runs the hotel accommodated us immediately and let us check-in early. The breakfast was included for us and was delicious- coffee and tea and then they bring out fresh juice, fresh fruit, and toast. Then, plantains and cheese slices, and then eggs however you want them ＜3 delicious! Located within walking distance of the main ***** and about half mile to Darwin center. 2 minute walk to pier. The front desk is open most of day and family lives here (I think) so always available and friendly if need anything. The main guy/ dad speaks great English and everyone seemed to understand. Beds comfy. Great water pressure and temp in shower. Had refrigerator and safe (that works) in room. Felt very safe and at home. Multiple water drinkable dispensers. 5 stars+++

Ottimo alloggio! 2 camere separate ciascuna con bagno. Spazioso, veranda con vista su una piscina immacolata. Una colazione deliziosa inclusa servita accanto alla piscina. Giochi/studio disponibile. Ritira solo il suo 15 minuti a piedi dalla città. Ma i taxi sono $2 e abbondanti.

NO PRENOTA IL HOTEL Abbiamo prenotato e pagato 10 mesi di anticipo. Abbiamo pagato un importo considerevole per garantire che abbiamo la giusta stanza per questa visita speciale, e quando siamo arrivati, hanno detto che, dopo aver cambiato la categoria delle camere, ora siamo in una suite (piccola) junior. Come hanno detto alcuni altri commentatori, non sono suite! Solo dopo due giorni, quando gli ho mostrato la corrispondenza che confermava la stanza con nome, hanno accettato che siamo stati messi nella stanza sbagliata. Dopo molte discussioni (che erano distrazioni da essere in vacanza) ci diedero la stanza che abbiamo prenotato e spiegato che non potevano darci prima, perché avevano permesso a qualcun altro di prenotare. Ci hanno offerto una piccola somma per compensazione, ma non vicino a quello che avevamo pagato (la differenza) per la stanza che avevamo prenotato, quindi non mi consiglierei questo posto perché sono delusi, e voi vi prendete le vostre possibilità. Ho aspettato tre mesi dalla nostra visita per scrivere questa recensione, quindi non è fatto nel ”calore del momento” . Ps. Se rispondono e negano il contenuto di questa recensione, allora sarei felice di condividere la corrispondenza pertinente. Noto anche il numero limitato di recensioni per un'impresa che si sostiene sia stata intorno per un po' ...
