We loved our stay there, near many attractions that you can easily walk to or take the taxi for ~$2 dollars to the Darwin Research Station/Pier or more if further away, staff were friendly & accommodating. Breakfasts was delicious & our rooms were newly renovated (you can ask if are available). We love that they have a pool, hot tub, ping pong table, spa, water dispensers, outdoor tables for gathering/reading/dining & ice available upon requests. Unforgettable journeys & escape home in Galapagos!! We definitely recommend & would love to return if extra blessings permits.

Fernandina was a delightful property with everything I needed for a final night on the island. It was close to food and shopping and the room was excellent, large and comfy with a nice shower and bathroom. Not to mention the adorable kitten sitting outside my doorway. Gracias

Had a nice buffet breakfast. Could walk to downtown area. Staff knew very limited English so bring your google translate. Held our baggage while visiting other islands. Asked the receptionist to call us a taxi to turtle reserve. She told us $10 and 10 minutes. Guy took 30 minutes and charged us $45. Pool was nice but hot tub was not hot.
