Look out your suites at diving boobys and marine iguanas as Galapagos seals fight for the best bench on the deck near your room. Wonderful experience and a great place to start a land based trip of the Islands. read less

Ideally located between the Main Street and the Darwin Research Center and Turtles Reserve, we found Habitat hotel very comfortable with a helpful staff and a beautiful view on the sea.
The hotel has a nice restaurant and outdoor terrace (often occupied by some sealions!) and the rooms are very clean and confortable.
The hotel also has bikes that you can take to ride around Puerto Ayora, and is close to many restaurants and activities.
A good hotel for your stay on the island! read less

This is a beautiful, clean hotel with many sea lions and marine iguanas on site. Food at the restaurant was excellent. We did drink the filtered water provided by the hotel - with the Galapagos-wide goal of decreasing use of plastic bottles. However, our stomachs didn't tolerate that water so we switched to buying 6 liter bottles of water for the rest of our trip. You could also probably use something like a steri-pen and be fine. Highly recommend this hotel. Wonder why they changed the name from Red Mangrove to Galapagos habitat - Red Mangrove is much more fitting and easier to remember...maybe has something to do with how it shows up on a Google search?? read less

We were lucky to have the Darwin Suite. All Windows, fabulous views. Staff are great, friendly and helpful. Wonderful to see all the animals and birds around the hotel. Great to have place for iguanas and sea lions to rest. Breakfast was a great show. Only a few problems which seem to me East to fix. One, the hotel is not as clean as it should be. Little things like the top of the garbage can in bathroom is dirty. They don't seem to change the little rugs used for wiping feet in the reception area. They were very dirty, never changed the 4 days we were there. Should be changed every day. Second, during the day, the reception desk was always empty unless they expected a. New guest. Always had to look for someone, also the people did not have much information about the town. These are small things that can be easily fixed. I would come back in a flash. read less

Enjoy the ocean view surrounded by sea lions and iguanas was a lifetime experience.
The hotel was built inside of forest of mangrove with great conservation concept.
To sit in the room and hearing the wild animals a few steps outside of our balcony was outstanding.

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

The deck that houses the restaurant and lounge chairs has resident sea lions and marine iguanas. The restaurant was the best we tried in Puerto Ayora. The restaurant and hotel staff was helpful in every way possible, particularly in upgrading our room when there was a problem with our first one. The second room overlooked the sea lions and had a large balcony with wonderful views of the harbor. read less
