The hotel is clean and located very close to the pier, close to transportation, food and shopping. The best part is its customer service, they are friendly, helpful and flexible. The room was clean and comfortable, the only issue was the shower, it was a bit complicated to get it warm. We would stay here again.

This was a very cute hotel with a balcony, hot shower, and AC. The service at the front desk was very friendly and helpful! While our room rate didn’t come with breakfast, they provide coffee/tea and a water refill station in the lobby. Our room was clean, and we had a comfortable one-night sleep after a redeye. The only minor complaints were the WiFi, as it was a bit spotty at night, and the hot water— the temperature constantly changes, so you have to manage it between two knobs.

Asu and Carlos are so helpful and both ready to assist me with my needs. The hotel is clean, breakfast is amazing and the view is amazing. I booked the suite facing the port and loved every minute of my stay. I had the most nutritious and lovely breakfast on the rooftop and the shared spaces are really cool. I highly recommend this posada for a really great stay. There are nice little restaurants near the area and the shopping area is walkable. It's so convenient and you can have the best of everything.

Posada Del Mar is fantastic! A little gem in the middle of bustling Puerto Ayora. The property is clean and inviting and we loved the common areas with tables, kitchen, couches and working space and bonus- views of the harbor. The best part is the wonderful staff that went above and beyond to make our group feel welcome and help store some of our excess gear. This will be my go to place when visiting Galapagos in the future!

We stayed at the Posada del Mar three different times during our month in the Galapagos and really enjoyed our visits. It is on a quiet street, yet conveniently located near restaurants, shops and the Puerto Ayora harbor. The delicious breakfast is served on the terrace overlooking the harbor. Our rooms were very comfortable and clean, with air conditioning, a private bathroom and lots of hot water. The staff is very friendly. Carlos and his wife were wonderful and let us store our luggage at the office during the hours between checkout and our ferry departures and arranged for a taxi to take us to the Baltra airport. Muchas gracias, Posada del Mar!

The staff were extremely attentive and helpful. They went out of their way to make our stay special. We left early, and they made sandwiches for us since we would miss breakfast. Beyond that, the town had a loud celebration one night we were there, and the hotel provided us warning and earplugs to help make our stay more comfortable. They really did a fantastic job overall.
