We had pelicans flying by and bright red crabs scuttling all over the rocks and iguanas by our feet. Perfect location for an ice cold drink watching wildlife. Others were eating and the food looked good too. read less

Service was fantastic and the staff was attending to every need. We had the Darwin Suite and the room was large, comfortable with a very large and refreshing shower. Great views across the bay with Sea Lions and Pelicans always around. Restaurant was fantastic. Only negative is that the TV service did not have CNN International or any other english channels. Which is unusual as we did have it in Isabella which is more remote than Santa Cruz. Other than that a fantastic stay read less

The Darwin Suite, was enormous and had really incredible views from two private balconies. Water pressure was good and the bathroom was large and modern. The staff at the hotel was very helpful, and bike rentals were free. The breakfast, also included, was very good.

This hotel is well managed, clean, and everything you would want in a tropical waterfront locale. read less

We named our suite the treehouse because we were perchec above the trees with 180 degree views. The room was very nice and clean and a highlight was the bathtub and shower with a view of the ocean while still being private. The food in the restaurant was excellent. There were some guests that hogged the lounge chairs but since they were bunches of napping sea lions we did not complain! The hotel is in a good location with a short walk to the main town and pier and very close to the Charles Darwin center. We also booked 2 excellent boat tours on a small yacht for day trips. Those are highly recommended as well. read less

We had just finished an active sailing adventure trip so we spent a lot of time enjoying our room and found the hotel to be wonderful. Our room was an ocean front suite (Darwin); large, light filled, lots of natural wood, a sky light and with a balcony and a patio. The room was beautiful and the view was amazing. We had open views south, west and east. There was a 3rd night free deal, be sure to look for that.

The resort was very pretty, the people were polite and the food was great. Breakfast was easy and included plenty of variety. No one minded when we spent two hours with coffee, a book and the sea lions. It’s a popular spot for dinner so a reservation won’t hurt. Almar's reputation was earned on their dinner which has a varied menu of fine dining.

It’s a short walk to town including Avenida Kiosko or to water taxis for your own adventures (go to las Grietas). The Darwin Research Center is next door and the nicest beach in Puerto Arroyo is a short walk.

You’ll find sea lions, iguanas, pelicans and herons right at the resort or in the water nearby.
