Lonesome George Ecolodge

I loved the location and the building’s unique style, but the staff seemed unprepared for my arrival—my son, who usually handles the holiday logistics, had to step in. The place was very quiet and offered few activities or tours, which made sense for the low season.

The hotel was a nice spot with staff who were friendly and helpful. My room was clean, comfortable, and the air conditioning worked well.

“Great location and beautiful, unique decor and spaces”

The location was excellent—close to the waterfront, cafés, and restaurants. My room was lovely, featuring natural wood crafted by the owner, giving it a quirky and rustic charm. Free drinking water, tea, coffee, a microwave, fridge, and stove were available, and there were many social spaces. It was a great place, especially as a one‑night stop at the end of a trip.

“Location, beautiful rustic charm - be ready to pay in cash”

The spot’s location was great, and the decor was stunning, featuring handmade wooden structures and plenty of artifacts around. I paid extra for a superior room that gave me a lot of extra space, a private fridge, a small balcony, and a large roof terrace that was really lovely. The location was just back from any waterfront noise but still a short walk to everything. The main reception and the area next to the courtyard had fire alarms that beeped constantly because they ran out of battery, which was annoying for the whole 10‑night stay and seems common in the town. The roof terrace was nice but a bit grubby; it could have been cleaned before arrival or at least once it was in use, yet it never was. Rooms were cleaned maybe every other day, but it wasn’t clear when. Better communication about what to expect would have helped. The payment by card option was actually a transfer link that didn’t work for all card types, so I had to pay cash—something the owners would prefer. Knowing this beforehand would have made it easier, as I had to withdraw a lot of cash from expensive local ATMs for a 10‑night stay, causing extra stress. Just tell people in advance that cash is required and it would have been fine.

“Quirky, beautiful place with rustic charm and great location”

The place was absolutely beautiful, quirky and rustic. Every room was unique, and there were plenty of extra spaces in the bar area, central courtyard, and a small roof terrace. The details were incredible—natural wood structures, branches, and decor all made by Victor, one of the owners. Both owners were very helpful, booking taxis or suggesting places to visit. Drinking water dispensers and hot water were available at all times, with free tea and coffee facilities. The kitchen was well stocked, including a fridge, microwave, and gas hob that were free to use. Each room had a universal plug and USB adapter. The location was good, just off the main harbour front road and a few steps from shops and restaurants, but a little quieter because it’s off the main street. The rustic wood charm isn’t for those who want white, clean lines and modern minimalism. The shower hot water took a long time to heat and sometimes fluctuated between hot and warm. Fire alarms around the rooms and social spaces were a constant. Two of them in the main office/reception, along the courtyard, ran out of battery and beeped every 20‑30 seconds for 10 days we were there and then returned. I mentioned it to the owner, but he thought they could be ignored, so they continued to beep. It’s common in the town to hear such low‑battery warnings ignored, making it a constant beeping soundtrack during our stay.
