Isamar was the perfect place for our family to relax and visit our son who is studying abroad on Isabela Island. If I were going back, I would definitely stay there again. The location right on the beach was perfect! There was a very calm area in the ocean protected by volcanic rock where my daughter loved to play. Other locals brought their children to play there also - safe from the waves. The breakfast was good with plenty of choices. We ate supper there on our last evening and it was our favorite meal on the Island. They opened a small bar every evening, which was so nice and convenient. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, AC was cool, showers were hot, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Don’t hesitate to book at Isamar. You won’t be disappointed.

All the staff were amazing. Our host Eva is to be commended for, her attention to details and making sure we had everything we needed. Only downside were a few ants in the bathroom area. I'm sure this is probably unavoidable given that nature does it thing in the Galapogas!

Good place to stay
Is a small hotel and the price is a little high but is because Isabela Island is the most expensive Island in Galapagos but in my opinion is the best Island and worth it. The beach in front of the hotel was amazing specially in the mornings when the water goes down. Also the best thing about the hotel is the kindness of the people specially Jimmy the owner, he help us with all the info before our trip and also he arranged our transportation from Baltra to Isabela, also he book our paid tours in the island (the best is the tunnels tour). The internet conection sucks but is not something about the hotel, in general the internet connection in galápagos.

We had a warm welcome from Juan, he took time to explain all the Island and hotel had to offer. The room was clean and by far the most comfortable bed and pillows we had during our trip. The beach was steps away. A great place to stay!

Comfortable stay
Room was comfortable. Hotel staff helped us to arrange for snorkeling and ferry, provided information about island. Breakfast starts at 7 AM, but many activities starts at 7 AM as well. We asked for breakfast at 6:40AM, and front desk person promised that it will be ready. Next morning breakfast was not ready. Please, put this into consideration if you are planning early morning activities. Hotel is located relatively close to ferry station, but hotel charge for transfer. Consider the cost of this hotel transfer should be included.

The perfect place to stay while in Isabella
Everything about my stay was first rate. I am very particular and well traveled. My expectations are high and they were greatly exceeded. Not only is everything in working order, clean, great beach location but The staff is 5 Star! Juan who is the property manager is an excellent resource while in Isabella. In the 100+ properties I have visited, his Passion to help goes well beyond his job responsibility. This gentleman truly wants all of his guests to feel like family. Thank you Juan for the personal attention you give all your guests. Also a shout out to Amy who manages breakfast. Her lovely smile and easy way made breakfast peaceful and did I mention the food was delicious. A repeat visit is definitely in the future. If you’re going to Isabella you will not find a better value or accommodations. Next year I will be bringing my entire family to this property.

The hotel was perfectly located walking distance to the ferry and downtown restaurants and amenities. We had a beautiful room on the beach with gorgeous view of sea. The staff was warm, welcoming and helpful. They arranged fantastic day tours for us. Breakfast was plentiful, healthy and delicious. On Valentine's Day (our anniversary!) the cook prepared an amazing romantic dinner for us and our table was beautifully decorated. Staying at the Isamar Hotel was a highlight of our trip to the Galapagos. We highly recommend the Isamar Hotel.

Really nice stay and this was the most expensive hotel for my 2-week stay in Galapagos (traveling on a budget). It's branded as a luxury and it's not quite luxury, but it is very nice. I was there just before the high season started (mid-December) and got lucky to get one of the 3 rooms with ocean view - without paying that extra fee for ocean view. Spacious rooms with everything you need, water is already in your room and 2 places to refill. AC is strong but it's nice to leave the big glass door open with the screen closed for the ocean breeze and sounds. The reception and breakfast area is about 3 minutes away walking across the street. Breakfast was excellent and a great way to start the day (yogurt, fresh juice, coffee, eggs to order, etc). The beach in front is nice and there are two lounge chairs to use and lots of chairs on the deck to use. Again, for the price, I can't give it full 5 stars (no pool), but if you can afford it, this is a great choice in Villamil.

First time came in Galapogos and Isabela Island. Hotel manager JUAN gave us excellent support while we are staying. Location is beach front and patio facility is excellent to enjoy beach access. Breakfast is served with various fruits and nice food and Anton as server gave us excellent hospitality while we are staying. Room is very clean and nice to stay for relaxation after our work.
