It's rare but everything was great.

The owners and staff were exceptional. One of the best experiences I have ever had. Best pillows and breakfast! Wonderful view, hammocks looking over the water was amazing.

Casa Playa Mann was the perfect place to land on our trip to San Cristobal! Property staff were the best we have ever had! They were knowledgeable, helpful, and welcoming. Would 100 percent stay at this property again. Casa Playa Mann is a great location, has the best breakfast in town, and hands down has the best people! Rooms were clean and ample in size with an outdoor sitting area in the front of each room. There was a generous common area as well filled with beautiful plants and hammocks. This property radiates the love and quality that Jose and his family have put into it.

Fantastic Ocean Bay view from a very large private balcony, comfortable room. Family operated , live on premises . Lucia welcomed us with her winning smile! Both she and her brother Jose were very helpful with site seeing and restaurant recommendations. We were treated to a complimentary bottle of champagne to celebrate our 50th anniversary.. great place to stay, 2 minute walk to Playa Mann.

Absolutely loved everything about our stay here. The staff is super friendly and helpful, the rooms and cute and clean, and the breakfast is amazing.

Getting hot water for a shower was a little unreliable. Some showers were hot, others tepid. The wifi wasn't great either but we cared less about that as there was too much nature to enjoy to waste time on the internet.

The was our favourite hotel of our whole trip to Galapagos. The staff were incredible, giving detailed information on the hotel, amenities and things to do in the area and there was always someone available to ask questions. The breakfast was delicious. The location right next to Playa Mann was fantastic and the hotel itself was beautifully decorated. We loved it.

Casa Playa Mann Inn is the best little almost-hidden BnB on San Cristobal island. It sits on a low hill with my ocean-view room with its private terrace was great for watching the multicolored sunsets. Jose and everyone there will make sure you have anything you need including a great breakfast before heading out for a daily tour of the island. Their courtyard is a quaint unique gathering place before and after exploring all 360° island of adventures. Just a quiet and family-owned Inn that makes you feel as if you are the only person staying there.

The noise of trucks passing by at 6 am.

Extremely friendly and welcoming staff, relaxed atmosphere, great location near the local beaches and sunset spots and not far from town centre, spacious rooms with big beds, delicious breakfast, exquisite offers of equipment (bathing towels, snorkelling masks, clothes hanger), impressive photos of local wildlife, good network with expert guides and drivers, feels like home

Luciana and Jose made us feel super welcome. The small family-run hotel only has 6 rooms, making the experience very personal and friendly. The location is the best, close to the beach where you can swim with sea lions. Definitely book the sea-view room with terrace. We loved to relax up there and enjoy the views. The breakfast is served at the table with fresh regional products. Couldn’t wish for more. Very recommended!

All was great!

Luciana, Jose, Mariana all made our stay special from start to finish. This is a family owned and run property with just 6 rooms. They immediately make you feel at home and assist with anything needed. My husband wasn’t feeling well and they went above and beyond to provide him with ginger tea and make sure we had what we needed. Thank you for your hospitality and an unforgettable stay!

Rooms were clean and comfortable. The porch which was almost as big as our room was our favorite. It had plenty of seating, two hammocks, and a spectacular view.

This was a wonderful place to stay. The photos are accurate, it is not a new modern hotel, but the very few new modern hotels on San Cristobal will be very expensive and not worth it in my opinion. This is a very clean, very well maintained and delightful place to stay. Everything from air conditioning, WIFI, hot water, all worked very well. The view is amazing (we paid for the ocean view). The room is quite spacious and the property very quaint with places to rest/read. A great thing about the hotel is that it is a 5 minute walk to downtown which is very close but away from the bustle. Also it is very close (few minutes) from Playa Mann which is delightful with people and sea lions hanging on the beach together. Much better than any downtown beaches. Best of all Jose, Lu, and Lucia were the best hosts; they made us feel like family and could not be more helpful for any questions, planning, arranging a box breakfast when we were early, etc. This family-run place makes you feel that no detail is left untended to. They helped us coordinate laundry service for a small fee that made our stay easier. No regrets. Trust the reviews - you won't regret staying here! Also - do not be scared off by Ecuador mainland crime. We Stayed at the airport hotel in Guayaquil and felt safe. Just book the Holiday Inn property right almost attached to the Guayaquil airport and you'll be good. So many are avoiding the Galapagos right now due to the mainland issues, which is a shame as it is hurting the locals and a missed opportunity to visit. The airport hotel we used in Guayaquil was literally adjacent to the airport and has reliable pickup with hotel van. Supporting local businesses like this family-run hotel is a great way to experience the true warmth of the Galapagos while contributing to the local community. We felt so sorry to leave and so happy we chose this place.

Nothing. Perfect stay.

The hotel is beautiful - one building but each room seems more private, having their own porches. Mostly, though, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, reserving cabs, helping to book day tours, restaurant recommendations, etc. If we needed anything, they were there for us, always, and without being overbearing. Incredible location in San Cristóbal.

WiFi patchy but to be expected in such a remote location

Small personal comfortable excellent location close to beach nature walks easy walk, or even easier $2 taxi to town centre, it was a great choice for our 4 day stay. Owners and staff were attentive and helpful, good breakfast, and a relaxing, laidback vibe

The rain put only a slight damper on things but can’t control the weather! Other than that there was nothing we didn’t like!

There was nothing we did not like.

The location was perfect for us. It was very easy to walk to the main town, while also being just across from the beach and near the walking paths to snorkeling and the Interpretation center. Jose and Lucia were extremely welcoming hosts, and they helped us with details for tours and transfers. we really enjoyed chatting with them. Breakfast was also excellent and fueled us well for our adventures. we also loved our large balcony with hammocks-a perfect place for a vacation siesta! I would 100% return.

It’s location is a bit of a walk to the town.

Jose and his Sister were exceptional hosts and made our stay special. Short walk to beach, trails and an interpretation center. Great breakfast. Nice veranda with view.

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Playa Mann. Great communication from José prior to our stay and he arranged the 360 tour for us which we enjoyed. The room is spotless and the view was amazing. We loved relaxing in the hammocks on the balcony. Breakfast was also lovely, we really enjoyed the fresh juice in the mornings and the various jams. We appreciated all the recommendations from Jose and Lucia of what to do and where to eat whilst there. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again if on San Cristobal. The location is great, just a 5 minute walk to the centre and also close to Playa Mann and the interpretation centre.
