The Wooden House looks charming in photos. The location is pretty good- only a short walk to the pier and Concha several, and a 10 minute walk to town. The AC was nice and cold. Breakfasts were very good. However, it needs improvements. Our first room was very small. There was barely room to store our bags. We found out that the toilet did not flush. Water was only going down in a trickle. We asked for a new room and we were upgraded to a spacious suite. It was fine until one night when it rained heavily. The roof leaked and our floor got wet in at least 4 spots. Maybe because of the issues we encountered, the manager was not very friendly. I later read that there are hotels near or on the beach that are nearly the same price that travelers may want to look into.

We stayed here for four days and everything was clean and wonderful. The breakfast each morning was delicious too. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. It is a small island so you are close to everything. Minutes to the pier and sea lions and about a 10 minute walk to downtown.

This was a very nice hotel set apart from the other hotels so it is quiet at night. Walking distance to the port and to town. The staff was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also tasty and of very good qualify. The only thing to be aware of is the mosquitos. We didn't have any problems on the other islands but had numerous bites on this island so make sure to bring repellent. Some of the rooms didn't have screens so mosquitos at night in the rooms were a problem. I recommend this hotel with that caveat.

We had a fantastic experience staying at The Wooden House Lodge during our visit to Isabela Island. Although we only stayed for one night, the hospitality left a lasting impression. The owner was incredibly helpful and caring, ensuring that all our needs were met and going above and beyond to make us feel at home. The lodge itself is charming, with a cozy atmosphere and all the comforts we needed for a relaxing stay. The location was convenient for exploring the island, and the staff provided excellent recommendations for activities and dining. We couldn’t be happier with our stay and highly recommend The Wooden House Lodge to anyone visiting Isabela Island. It’s the perfect place for a comfortable and welcoming experience!

We really enjoyed our stay at The Wooden House. The rooms were large, comfortable and had good amenities. It is very close to the dock (with great snorkeling right at the dock!) and an easy bike ride or 15 minute walk into the main town. The staff were very nice and the food was wonderful. The entire place was very clean and had a welcoming and comforting atmosphere. If you visit Isabela Island this is a great place to stay!

Oh my god. I ordered the fish and it was not cooked and smelled and tasted rancid. When I told them they said sorry do I WANT TO BUY something else. No Way. Stay away stay away. Hope I do not get sick. Also was suppose to have meal when we got there and we had to wait 50 minutes. Beware would give a negative number if offered

This “hotel” is .4 miles from city center, it is difficult to get a taxi, it is blazing hot to walk into town during the day, and there was construction going on until at least 8 pm. There is no real travel service here so the only way to organize is your o go to town. Rooms have thin walks and you can hear your neighbours. There is a small pool and bar - but it is at the entrance and not appealing. I do have to say the breakfast was ok and that is why they got 1 star. Not a relaxing vacation spot.
