10/10 Exceptional

We did enjoy the stay at Insular a lot! The owner is very helpful and accommodating. The rooms have everything that we need and a great water pressure in the shower. Having the use of the kitchen was very handy. There was a space to wash sandy feet and rinse and dry clothes. The location is pretty good, with lots of restaurants, tour agencies and bike rentals nearby and close to all the beaches. We would recommend the hotel.

8/10 Very good

Very budget friendly. Flavio is a wonderful host. When our ride did not arrive for a tour, he asked us who we booked with and got someone to pick us up within 2 minutes as he knows everyone in town. Basic accommodation but that is all you need on a this island. Great snorkeling spots are a short walk away.

6/10 Good

For such a good rating it was a very disappointing stay. Good points: very walkable into town. Clean bathroom and furniture/floors. Cleaning staff very helpful. Staff pleasant when approached. Bad points: staffing very poor attendance at reception. Only key given on check in, no information whatsoever. Bedding still had detergent powder in areas. No water available for 2 days. Aircon leaked all down curtain and onto belongings.

Great stay!

We had a great stay at Hotel insular. Flavio can help you with anything from booking tours to laundry to bike rentals to making you a cheap and delicious breakfast right at the hotel. We enjoyed our room and the location was great. The shared kitchen and drinking water were appreciated. Air conditioning and hot water if you need it.

Basic room

I was happy that they let me enter the room early after I arrived from the ferry. The room had no soap or toiletries. The fitted sheet had some old stains. For the price I paid, I would go back. There was hot water and AC.
