Frommer's Review
This place is for the hard-core adventurer or real escape artist. The island has only around 100 inhabitants, and most are simple fishermen or farmers. The Wittmer, located near the beach and tiny town of Puerto Velasco Ibarra, is the hotel still owned and run by the descendents of Margaret Wittmer, who wrote the book Floreana, a firsthand account of the life of early settlers here, which included the love-triangle and death mystery known as the Floreana Affair. The rooms here are simple and bare-bones. The best are individual cottages set off from the main building. Camping is also permitted here. A full meal package will run you around $28 per day.
Facilities:
Restaurant, bar; tour desk; laundry service
