Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Red Booby

No matter that this place sits a few blocks inland; Puerto Ayora is tiny enough that a walk to the ocean is not long. The friendly staff and sparkling rooms with wood furnishings (and a few with their own balconies) make this a good bet. Take a dip in the rooftop pool at the end of a day of sightseeing, and dine at the poolside barbecue, or the more formal restaurant downstairs.
