Company information

We are a husband and wife team that strives to give our guests a personalized service so that you can experience the ultimate Galapagos experience

Property information

The Drake Inn is a family owned small Inn and one of our most attractive features are our many terraces overlooking the Isabela Bay and the Galapagos National Park. We are located at the end of the small town of Puerto Villamil where it is quiet, peaceful and relaxing. Being in front of the beach gives one the solitude where one can commune with nature but remain close to all the amenities of the town. A few yards down the road is the entrance to the Giant Tortoise breeding center which is the largest of its kind in the world

Neighbourhood information

Upon exiting the Inn and turning right one can walk for miles along a white wide sandy beach with only the wild life and endemic flora and fauna for company. If one exits left, there are several restaurants and beach bars to provide you with a nice meal or drink.
