“Gus Angermeyer was among the earliest settlers on the island of Santa Cruz. Having left Germany in the early 1930´s, he and his brothers set on an adventure bound for the Galapagos islands.The three brothers and their families all settled around the area later known as “Angermeyer Point”. The brothers homes were built from the natural resources available, mainly lava rocks and wood. Many of these structures are still standing today and are a main part of the atmosphere created at the Inn. One of the Angermeyer Waterfront Inn’s central structures is Gus Angermeyer’s “cave” – now serving as the hotel reception and café. This legendary site was Gus’ sanctuary, where he would read the works of Shakespeare and Einstein and tell about his amazing adventures to those who were fortunate enough to get invited. The aim of the Inn has been to capture as much of Gus’ spirit as possible – meaning to live in tranquillity and harmony with nature and our surroundings.”
