Ocean Dreams Galapagos

Puerto Ayora

Featuring a bike rental service, Ocean Dreams offers self-catering accommodation. Free WiFi access is available.

Rooms at Ocean Dreams have a modern décor and feature air conditioning, and a flat-screen cable TV, while suites feature a air-conditioning and a flat-screen cable TV, as well as a microwave and a refrigerator. All of the private bathrooms also come with a shower and free toiletries. The owner is incredibly nice and helpful, even with very basic English skills she makes everything work. She takes care of you and any requests you might have. The tour and taxi she organised was very good and cheap as well. The hotel is nicely located with like 5 minutes to the sea and 10 minutes to Darwin center (no need to go there). The air conditioning works, the water pressure is okay (it's excellent in some rooms), the whole hotel is clean - so I can recommend Oceans Dreams absolutely and without any doubts. I can't emphasize enough how likeable and nice and heartwarming the owner is. Being there didn't feel like business but more like family.

Hostal Gardner

Puerto Ayora

Located in Puerto Ayora, 800 metres from Los Alemanes Beach, Hostal Gardner provides air-conditioned rooms and a terrace. Located around 1.2 km from La Estacion Beach, the hostel with free WiFi is also less than 1 km away from Tortuga Bay. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, a concierge service and organising tours for guests. I had to travel to other islands before checking in at the hostal in Santa Cruz and they kindly allowed me to keep my stuff for a few hours while I waited for the boat. Check in was easy and fast. Upon arrival, I was placed on a shared dorm but when we turned on the AC, it was leaking and staff came over and tried to fix it but because of the curfew, they couldn't find anyone available that day and so they moved us to private rooms for that night. I really enjoyed the upgrade. There's a nice terrace upstairs and the hostel is quiet in general, so you'll be able to rest. It's also very close to the port and to the main street and restaurants. Staff is friendly and helpful. Then they fixed the AC the next day and I was lucky because I had the whole dorm to myself for 2 nights in a row. The place was clean and the hot water in the shower worked perfectly. I can definitely recommend this place.

The bathroom is clean and water pressure is good. There are some nice hammocks to hang out in after a hot day under the sun. As for the kitchen, it has every tool you need to make a good lunch/dinner. The property is kept clean and well maintained. The location may seem out of the way at first, but after staying there and also staying downtown, we would choose this part of town again. It is quiet after sunset (no loud music or lights til 10pm), with reasonably priced grocery stores/restaurants around. The walk to the Main Street is around 5-10min, tops. Loved it and would definitely return!
