Very good help with booking our full journey on Galapagos. When we arrived she took the time to write down our full planning. This was really amazing. She helped us plan the total trip in a very structured way. She managed to book all ferries and all the trips at a correct price. This was awesome because then everything was planned and we could just relax! The place is very clean and quiet. The kitchen is amazing and you get free water. Highly recommended! Free water too

The owner is incredibly nice and helpful, even with very basic English skills she makes everything work. She takes care of you and any requests you might have. The tour and taxi she organised was very good and cheap as well. The hotel is nicely located with like 5 minutes to the sea and 10 minutes to Darwin center (no need to go there). The air conditioning works, the water pressure is okay (it's excellent in some rooms), the whole hotel is clean - so I can recommend Oceans Dreams absolutely and without any doubts. I can't emphasize enough how likeable and nice and heartwarming the owner is. Being there didn't feel like business but more like family.

Cute little hotel in the heart of Puerto Ayora. Great location, within walking distance of shops and restaurants. The staff is very welcoming, especially Maily at the front desk, who was particularly helpful. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, just perfect for a pleasant stay.

Rooms very spacious and well decorated, we had the hammerhead room. Aircon and wifi worked perfectly. Hot water in the shower. Communal kitchen was well equipped and clean. Close to all the action. Daniel has all the information you will ever need about Galapagos plus more and has amazing stories to tell. Was a joy to stay here.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The hostel has a comfortable shared area. The kitchen is very big and very well equipped. There are free water refills. Towels and bedsheets get changed every day. The place is centrally located and very close to the central food street (cheap menu del dia). They have an onsite bike rental shop. I could leave my bags on the way from Isabela to San Cristobal for 6 hours and use the facilities. The place was very social when I was there. Highly recommended!

Great location, spacious, clean and comfy rooms with air con. I was slightly disappointed the hostel is quite dated and also doesn't have a common space or kitchen, doesn't offer water refills as most places do. I would recommend staying here for a 1 or 2 nights only.

Great location for a good price. Friendly staff. The aircon was decent enough to keep the room cool. The bed is huge, as it is two small double beds put together, and you don't notice any gap in the middle. Next door to one of the best restaurants in town and close to everything else, including the best beach in Puerto Ayora, playa de la estación. Decent kitchen with plenty of seating, and free drinking water. Plus you can leave your bags in the hostel after checkout.
