This property is amazing. The rooms and bathrooms are large. The breakfast is made-to-order and exceptionally good. The staff is super nice and helpful. The property is steps from the main street with plenty of restaurants. Taxis are easy to get; I only had to wait 30 seconds every time I needed one. I will definitely stay here the next time I'm on Santa Cruz Island.

Very expensive glorified youth hostel - not a hotel. Did not receive room I booked, on line photos are very misleading/deceptive, no elevator, no AC in common areas, front desk staff with limited hours, poor WIFI, unappealing breakfast, awful laundry service (ruined a shirt) and a ridiculous 9AM checkout time - a first for me in almost 40 years of travel. Just a tremendous disappointment for the price - spoiled the first couple days of a once in a life time Galapagos adventure - such a shame…

Great location and beautiful boutique hotel!
This hotel was so much better than we expected. The breakfast was made for us every morning. The room was clean and beautiful and the location fantastic. And I am a hotel snob. We loved it! Only took a couple pics of my food. Wish I had more.

Cleanest hotel I have ever stayed in. Service was fantastic. Comfortable bed and great breakfast. The staff at this hotel care for their guests and it shows. Location was close to everything. They even helped us line up a taxi for a highland tour. Only downside is check out is 9:00 am. However you can tell the work they put in to make the hotel shine.

Our stay at Hotel Cucuve was outstanding. The staff was friendly and courteous, going out of their way to ensure we had a great time. The rooms were spacious and beautiful, the breakfast was great and the location to downtown cannot be beat. We would absolutely stay here again!

Small and yet very comfortable hotel. The staff is great and goes above and beyond to answer questions or requests. It's a great location, close to the water and the little downtown area. If you're there for island hopping and don't need a pool, this is your place.

Excellent, clean, modern, relatively small hotel in the heart of Puerto Ayora. Staff were friendly and went above and beyond. We were up and out of the hotel early in the mornings (5:30 am) before breakfast was served and the hotel staff made us a boxed breakfast the day before to take with us. I cannot say enough about the value for this hotel. There is a espresso/coffee machine in the shared kitchen, hotel is modern clean and relatively quiet. You can find cheaper hotels in Porto Ayora, but I suspect you will not find better value.
