    The hostess, Rebekka, was so personable, accommodating, and friendly. She made me feel right at home and went above and beyond to provide recommendations etc. The property is beautiful and relaxing. It’s at the end of the main road so it is quiet...

    We booked the suite with a kitchenette. I loved that it was right on the beach, but not directly in the town, so I got a lot of walking in. It's right by the flamingos, and, really, "town" is a 5 minute walk. The owners were lovely, and Caty, the...

    Rebekka had been very friendly and helpful from the beginning of our stay. She waited at the front of the hotel when we arrived and gave us a tour and many good travel tips. The beach is right across the street. I like to relax at the rooftop...

    You could not get a better location than this! The most beautiful beach is right across the road (actually a sand road) and the front porch of the hotel looks out on the beach. Moreover, it is just a 5 minute walk to the town for meals.

Company info

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 info

The Drake Inn is a family owned small Inn and one of our most attractive features is the top veranda that overlooks 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

Neighborhood info

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.
