「The Royal Palm offers a truly immersive Galápagos experience—set inland on a stunning 100 acre property, far from the touristy feel of the ports. Recently under new ownership, the property is being refreshed: rooms are spacious and renovated, the pool has been redone, and quiet renovations are underway, including apparently a unique lava tunnel spa. Some exterior areas still need attention, but the overall feel is serene and authentic.
Service is top-notch and boutique-level, with attentive,...
「An excellent stay. Cattya, the manager of the hotel was superb. She gave us timely information and organised the transfer of my luggage to Baltra airport whilst I was stuck at Isabela (due to tsunami alert).
The food was lovely, both at breakfast and dinner.
I would highly recommend to stay here. The great thing is that we had giant tortoise in the back garden. No need to go El Chato Ranch. You have nature in your back yard.
Make sure you stay here if you make a trip out to Santa Cruz. It is...
「We had a lovely night at the lodge. It was a family run hotel who made us feel so welcome.
The bed was huge and comfortable, the family were on hand for absolutely anything. They even came running out with umbrellas as we headed out for a walk in the rain.
The food was fresh and delicious. Breakfast was served outside our room on the veranda, which was fantastic and quite simply the best omelette I have ever tasted.
We arranged a pick up from the pier, which was provided at a very...
「My husband and I stayed at the Posada del Mar for 4 nights. It is a 7-10 minute walk from the ferry terminal, close to the supermarket and tonnes of restaurants, travel companies and shopping.

「Excellent location, clean, friendly, and great breakfast. Highly recommend. Only caveat- the outdoor area on the water shown in photos is actually a couple blocks from the rest of the hotel. Not a big deal, but I was surprised. 」
「The front desk (young men) are really professional helpful and nice, besides the property manager was very professional and helpful thanks Fernandina I highly recommend 」
「Super clean. Nicely decorated, loved the floors and tiles. Bedroom was spacious although there was a king and a full. The owner was nice and helpful, offered packed breakfast early one day we had a super early tour. There was an issue with our boat to change island so we couldn't leave and he immediately allowed us to stay in our room untill everything was solved, well after checkout time, and accommodated us in the same room for a final extra night.」
「Hotel Mainao is a hidden gem in Puerto Ayora. Spacious, clean rooms, delicious breakfast offerings, courteous and efficient staff, and striking Barcelona-inspired architecture make this family - owned hotel a top choice when holidaying in the Galápagos. 」
「Very nice little boutique hotel, very well located in Puerto Ayora. Exceptionally attentive staf and clean, ample room. Our tour was canceled due to a tsunami warning. The staff quickly found an alternative activity for us.」
