Guest reviews for Blu Galapagos Sustainable Waterfront Lodge

5 out of 5
We stayed here for 11 days and loved the hotel. I can't speak about the other rooms (they all seemed to have unique layouts) but ours, the Darwin, was fantastic. We were on the third floor water side with wrap around views of the ocean. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The hotel restaurant was very good and reasonably priced (free cooked to order breakfast was great). The location was perfect for us...everything in town was within easy walking distance. There was even a COVID testing location just a short walk away which worked out great for our return trip. Our first night there at the hotel we saw most of the wildlife we came to the islands for (sea lions, sting rays, sharks, blue footed boobie, iguanas, pelicans, etc)...all while having dinner in the their open air restaurant! We didn't use the bikes but it was nice knowing they were there if needed. Tortuga Bay entrance is about 1.5 miles away and was worth walking to every morning. The room had over 80 channels, all Spanish, but a nice selection of sports, news and movies. Free coffee and tea in the lobby was nice in the morning. Tons of gift shops nearby and across the street was a shop that makes fantastic handmade chocolates. wifi is slow but we expected that...our phones (T-Mobile) worked very well. Overall would highly recommend the property...we felt like we should have been charged much more for the quality of room we were in.
