A True Haven of Peace by the Pacific I had the privilege of staying at this exceptional little resort run by Marcel and his team, and the experience exceeded all my expectations. Nestled in a remote and peaceful setting, far from the hustle and bustle, this place is a true sanctuary where time seems to stand still. The comfort here is absolute, but of a different kind—more authentic. When you’re used to highly luxurious hotels with state-of-the-art amenities, here you discover another form of luxury: the mastery of simplicity, a return to the essentials. Everything is designed to foster deep well-being, without excess, yet with perfect balance. Each room has its own hammock, overlooking the ocean, inviting you to indulge in moments of pure serenity—whether meditating, unwinding, or simply letting yourself be lulled by the soothing sound of the waves. Time slows down, and you fully embrace the beauty of the present moment. The staff is incredibly kind and attentive, making the stay not only enjoyable but truly welcoming. You feel at home in a place where you can write, meditate, practice yoga, or simply savor life’s simple pleasures: delicious meals, fresh juices, a peaceful pool, and direct access to a pristine beach. A huge thank you to Marcel and his team for their outstanding hospitality. This place is more than just a getaway—it’s a true experience.

    One of the BEST locations we have ever been! From Playas bus terminal it's a 15 minutes, 5$ taxi ride. Thus, no problems to get there. We took supplies from Playas with as there are no restaurants or shops around. We stayed in the flat . You see and hear the sea from the bed and have direct beach access. Hosts are super friendly. We can recommend the 2h hike along the sea to Playas. There's even a blue-footed booby (birds typically for Galapagos Islands) colony to be seen. Will come again :)
