"We had the pleasure of staying at Hotel La Laguna, and from the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and cared for. What made our experience stand out was the hospitality of the hotel representative, Gian Carlos. Gian Carlos is kind and service-minded.

"A great place to stay with lovely and helpful staff. During the time of the tsunami alert, the staff made time to ensure we were kept safe and provided ample fruits and drink at their ranch. It was the personal touch the hotel provided such as a complementary night as no ferries were running from Isabela and taxi service to reassure us that no ferries were running.
