Hidden Gem within the island
Great hotel experience! A friend recommended us to stay here, and we could have not been happier. From the moment you walk in, you feel right at home; the hotel staff were extremely welcoming and super helpful throughout our stay, whether answering questions, or sharing suggestions, genuinely nice people. Check-in was smooth, rooms are modern, clean and comfortable with a great view. The hotel is located only a few steps from el Malecon, the main area, where you will find tour agencies, stores, restaurants and boats to other islands. I would absolutely come back, my partner and I are grateful with everyone that made our stay there wonderful :)

Without hesitations, this is one of the nicest hotels the area has to offer. It is newly built. Modern rooms. Spacious bedroom. Comfortable bed. Great breakfast. Excellent location in the heart of the city. Walking distance to restaurants. Walking distance to Charles Darwin research center. Nice rooftop with water views. Nice Jacuzzi on the rooftop. Quaint and small hotel. Excellent overall. Book right away.

What a great hotel! Clean and very open and breezy. The staff was awesome, helpful and so nice, anything you need they seemed to have. The breakfast buffet was great, something different every day in addition to the usual stand-bys. We just can't say enough nice things about our stay. La Isla is right off the main street and very convenient for walking.

Wonderful stay
My boyfriend found this hidden gem. We loved the location of the hotel because it was less than 10 minutes from the port and it was in a hidden in a quieter area. Blanca, Ramon and the rest of the hotel staff were always friendly, courteous and helpful. After a long day, they would welcome us back with a friendly smile. They genuinely cared about your experience on the island. The hotel rooms were beautiful, clean and comfortable. The two floor terraces are also beautiful, it set a nice backdrop to unwind and soak in the fresh air. Love the view of the waters on the second floor. The only con that I would have is that their wifi was very slow. Hopefully they have fixed their problem.
