The hotel was ideal for a two day vacation with my hubby. We loved that it was close to everything. Abel and Gonzalo, the front desk attendants were incredible, supporting with ideas and tours.
Excellent beach front hotel with close proximity to the town center. Staff is very friendly and helpful, room was clean with hot water and clean sheets and towels. Would come back to Theo property if back to Isabela
Ocean view room was amazing. Like being in a postcard. Hotel is on the beach. Super clean, comfortable, spacious room, friendly helpful staff. Very quiet. Beach never has more than 5 people on it at once. Spectacular sunset. Sunrise can be seen too because of location on island.

You pay for the view! Excellent location, but property needs some work. Beds were rock hard, bathrooms were in need of some work. Breaks fast was ok, but provided at a restaurant a few minutes walk away.
We visited Isabella island and stayed here for one night. The looks of this hotel from the outside are deceiving. It a very nice, bright, clean hotel that is steps away from the beach! You can hear the ocean waves at night. Love this place!
Waterfront location is fantastic! Beds are very hard, odd but had to ask for towels as they were zero in the room, asked for blow dryer also

We enjoyed the beachfront views and the sounds of the waves. The beds were very hard and the rooms were a bit grungy. The staff was responsive and helpful. We enjoyed the breakfast.
Nice place to stay. Close to the business area and just a couple of minutes of walking to a flamingo lagoon. Staffs are friendly and helpful. We booked an ocean view unit. The view through the windows is fantastic. The hotel is just next to a beach. Highly recommended.
Right on the water. Next o restaurants. Crack the slider and listen to the ocean waves come in. $3 cab ride from the ferry. Ocean facing worth the upgrade. We arrived late, owner met us at the main entrance. Free coffee! We will stay here again!

Overall decent experience. Slightly smelly bathroom and complimentary coffee setup was poor. Hot water for instant coffee wasn’t hot, sugar looked dirty and no milk or cream. We had our coffee elsewhere. Great staff and view but unimpressive building. I wouldn’t avoid the place but would consider it worthwhile to pay a little more for something slightly better.
