    We loved our spacious and sparkling clean apartment. Our room overlooked one of the main streets and provided us a nice view of the bay. We were steps away from many restaurants and shops, as well as the pier from which expedition boats departed.

Bay View House esta categorizada por la autoridad competente el Ministerio de Turismo como Casa de Huésedes, la edificación donde funciona el hospedahe se construyó en un terreno recibido en herencia, que inicialmente era una pequeña casa de madera pero en el año 2000 decidimo levantar la primera planta y no es sino hasta el año 2011 que terminamos su construcción, es así que el 30 de diciembre de ese año nos mudamos al departamento del tercer piso, al que hoy le llamamos nuestro hogar. Sin duda la edificación representa años de trabajo arduo que nos llena de orgullo a la perseverancia y porque además esta en un sitio privilegiado donde cada mañana podemos apreciar, desde la terraza y una de las suites, la hermosa bahía y mirar hacia un horizonte infinito que nos invita a soñar y pensar en la dicha de estar vivos!
Somos residentes de Galápagos, mi esposo nacido en estas islas y yo una migrante que llegó en el año 1992, en el año 1998 decidimos construir un proyecto de vida juntos y hoy tenemos a nuestra hermosa hija Emilia Eduarda. Amamos la vida en las islas porque se respira paz y tranquilidad. Gustamos de las salidas en bicicleta en familia y con amigos, pasear por las calles del Puerto, recorrer las islas y al final de cada jornada solo terminamos entendiendo que no hay mayor dicha de poder admirar y disfrutar de este lugar mágico.
Estamos ubicados en el centro turistico de la ciudad en la Av. Charles Darwin , calle del malecón, rodeados de todos los servicios turísticos tales como agencias de viajes, restuarantes, supermercado, lavandería, tiendas de souvenirs, cajeros automaticos. Desde la terraza se ofrece una espectacular vista a la bahía de Puerto Ayora y al horizonte se puede divisar las islas Santa Fe y San Cristobal y ademas puede admirar y disfrutar de la vida tranquila del lugar a la luz de la luna y las estrellas sin que pueda faltar una copa de vino o un exquisito cafe. En el mismo edificio en la planta baja se ubican las oficinas de la aerolinea Latam, tiendas de sourvenir y a 150 metros se encuentra el muelle turistico. Desde el 18 de abril de 2023 contamos con el servicio de internet a traves de STARLINK lo que garantiza una conectividad de entre 50 a 200 mgps.
