Casa de Marita The
Best Run, Best Located Hotel In The
Galapagos
|
Casa de Marita, located right on
the beach in the small town of Puerto Villamil,
Isabela, Galapagos, is run by the very capable
owner Marita Valverde. She personally oversees
an excellent staff. The restaurant serves the
finest meals on Isabela and the bar is a “pour
your own and make a note” affair, perfectly
suited to the relaxed, down home atmosphere of
the hotel and the island. This is the hotel
where most of our visitors with Come to
Galapagos stay when on Isabela.
The hotel is located at the end of long
beach where flamingos can often be seen wading
in the surf. It is not uncommon to see penguins
and sea iguanas on the rocks directly in front
of the hotel.
We took our family vacation thee last
February. Below is our son, Roley heading out to
“pet” and again below following the marine
iguanas across the beach.
All of these shots were taken directly in front
of the hotel.
The preferred method of reaching Isabela is
by small plane. Not only is the forty-five
minute flight more enjoyable than a three hour
boat ride, but it also affords the opportunity
to see the Galapagos from the air, something
very few visitors are able to do.

us or directly by writing to the following: info@casamaritagalapagos.com
