"For example, the 19-room Golden Bay Galapagos is situated right on the harbor of San Cristóbal Island. You can watch sea lions cavort on a small beach directly in front of the property, and day-trip boats leave from a dock that's no more than a three-minute stroll away. Book the corner suite, which features a living-room bathtub and glass walls that slide open to eliminate all barriers between you and the nature outside." - Travel + Leisure Editors

Check out the MUCH BETTER local airbnb's and restaurants. First, for the hotel to charge $18 USD per person for a one-way airport-to-hotel transfer is absolutely absurd. Taxi trips within the Pto Barquerizo Moreno local are $3 USD (not including tip) at MOST. Second, avoid the first floor restaurant at all costs; raw pizza and sandwich ham slices sold as prosciutto were scarily the best option...

Fantastic location just near town and right on the beach. Breakfast was amazing and watching the sea lions added to the experience.|Beautiful vegan, vegetarian and fish dishes. Pricey but worth every penny.|Staff friendly and helpful but service was a little inconsistent.|Good Wi-Fi, room was spacious with good air con. Bathroom was stylish but a bit impractical. Floor tiles very slippy when wet.|We liked the 24 hour free tea/coffee and cookie station.|Really close to the airport but no noise.|Highly recommended.

I have recently had an awesome breakfast at Hotel Golden Bay after a surf session at Tongo reef.The food selection has been amazing. The chef and his team definitely knows how to prepare and present a healthy and tasty breakfast option. The dishes are decorated with edible flowers fresh from their rooftop garden. I am impressed about the concept the hotel has in terms of ecological as well as local production. The view is stunning. If you have breakfast outside you can smell the sea brise and you have the view on the harbour. The service was very courteous:) Golden Bay is for me the perfect choice if you like simplicity in combination of luxury and sustainability.

Our favorite hotel of all three islands we visited this trip. Attentive staff, nice rooms, great location! Right in front of sea lion beach. They have a room open 24 hrs that has coffee, cream, nondairy milk, , fruit, yogurt parfait and cookies. Perfect for us because we are up early. The restaurant was amazing. 3 course lunch for $17 which is what it costs for a burrito bowl at chipotle! Homemade carrot soup, amazing fresh fish and vegetables and choice of vegan or regular cheesecake. Plenty of vegan options. Dinner was just as impressive. They grow their produce and garnishes on their rooftop garden. Our favorite restaurant. Close to a gym that opens at 5am. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Wish we had stayed here much longer.

We booked this hotel through our tour organizer. I don't know how much we paid. It was a nice stay, but I have a feeling that it wasn't worth the price.||The service is great. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious. We were supposed to have some sort of special view. If we craned our necks, we could see some water! The wifi worked well and the shower was great. For breakfast, we ordered off a menu. Most everything we had was good. I would not recommend the restaurant for dinner. It was expensive and mediocre.

I usually never write reviews, but this is worth it.. and simply because with a simple gesture they could have made a client at least less angry for the troubles caused and avoid this review.. I spent 2 nights only, from the 31st of December to the 2nd of January. To start: We arranged a car to pick up us the airport, the person who came from the hotel was not careful and when closing the door, smashed the hand of my 6 years old daughter. Not a single act of consideration/respect to say I'm sorry, or any kind of apologies, or even check if she was ok...| *No one ever picked up the phone at the reception, so if you ned something you have to come down and talk to someone personally. We informed about this and they claim the network might not be working |* Another minor issue: the safe was not working, they came to fix it but agreed that was having issues and offered to replace it..|* We tried to have dinner at the restaurant, and they told us we couldn't because we didn't have any reservation and this should have been informed at the time of check inn. Of course, no one ever informed this at the check inn. |*I had a small issue with some ice I ordered that never arrived to the room, and it was solved by Francisco who among the staff together with Wensel are the only ones that showed real care.|*Today at check out I asked if they could make a little gesture and grant us a late check out, whatever they could, and the reply without even finishing asking: NO.. Check out is at 10am, and check inn at 13hs. I explained all the issues to the receptionist and told him if he could just help me out with at least an hour or something. And he said that it was not possible. I paid 2105usd for 2 nights.. for 1k a night and after the issues we had a simple gesture would have made it..|Later on, while I was having breakfast he said he talked to the manager and that it could be possible to stay until 12 but if I pay 140 usd. ..so this really made me want to write this review. |*Our room had a little view to the beach, so at night you will get to hear the sound of the sea lions..so if you need silence better to ask for a room at the back. |*The hotel is super nice, good rooms, good shower, AC and wifi worked smooth, ..but the way they treated us after I told them everything was simply lack of empathy. Never coming back here.. |*ah. one more thing, at the time of check out, my luggage was taken b leaving some group operator .. and I have to let them know that I was no part of the group to bring them back to the hotel. So if I didn't informed them, my luggage was probably on the way to who knows where.. so this is just lack of attention, lack of consideration and even more for a guest who showed his disappointment, they should have just have a little consideration.. something, even if it's not possible there is always a way to say I'm sorry, thank you, etc. but they simply didn't care, and opt to ignore (because it reached the manager)... since they are probably full all the time at this hot season one more client seemed like a number. A simple gesture would have made "the client" feel that they cared. But the reply of the manager made this review possible. And again, I wouldn't be complaining if I stayed at a hostal, but when paying 1 thousand usd per night.. I think is worth sharing my bad experience and their lack of interest toward the client..

Nice location, good service (this is important because service is on average deplorable in Galapagos), nice and clean rooms. They have something unique for this town: the hotel has cable TV. No other hotel has that. The bar is good and the decor is well conceived.|However:|- the shower is not leveled correctly and the bathroom fills with run off water from the shower quickly. |- they have no storage room if you want to leave your bags prior check in or after check out, which is at 10 am. If you request a late checkout they will charge you about $ 100 extra.|- there is no complementary water in the rooms: they have water bottles at $3/each|- the restaurant only opens after 5 pm. And the food is not amazing

Golden Bay is a pretty hotel with front row seating to the ocean and sea lions lounging on the beach all day. It’s a nice experience to be able to sit at their outside bar and watch the sunset while eating and sipping on their tasty drinks. The staff is very nice and welcoming. Sofia, Jessica, Carlos, and Benjamin went the extra mile to accommodate any request we had. Thank you. |The food and drinks were really delicious. My husband and I were very impressed with the food selection offered at their restaurant, Muyu. It was truly high quality. The location is really perfect as you are close to everything.
