CasaGalapagos Santa Cruz with Starlink Internet

CorinnaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Stefan & Jenny's Airbnb is a gem. We felt instantly at HOME. It is such a beautiful little sanctuary, tugged away enough from the main road, but yet right in the center of town. Everything is very close. This was very convenient for our evening strolls to the restaurants and ferry ride to Isabela island. Stefan greeted us with a big smile when we arrived. Not only that, he sent us all the instructions anyone could wish for on how to get from the airport to their place. He walked us through everything in the house, and I appreciate his enthusiasm. He also connected us to the best tour booking agency around - shout out to Alejandro with FDS Travel, which was right around the corner. We ended booking ALL of our tours with them :D. Couple minor things: 1. I personally LOVED the upper bedroom nook. The stairs are an adventure :D 2. Shower temp is hard to control. Usually either too hot or too cold. Overall, their Airbnb contributed to making our visit unforgettable.

Planet House Apt2 Sunny 1 BR flat. Great location

CalebRating, 5 stars1 week ago

An excellent place to stay! It's a fantastic location: super close to the main street and a short walking distance from tons of restaurants, the Darwin research center, several great beaches, and the main pier. The place was very clean and well-stocked with all the essentials, and the hosts were super friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The view from the balcony was beautiful, especially at sunrise and sunset. The air conditioning worked well, which we really appreciated, and the WiFi was great. There's also a laundromat right across the street, which was very convenient. Overall, I highly recommend it!

Island Life Two Bedroom Galapagos Casita

JeffRating, 5 stars13 months ago

Torre Mar was perfect for the 3 of us and is in a great location in Puerto Ayora. An easy walk to anywhere in town. The 3 A/C units were a nice welcome home after a day in the heat. John, our host, was very attentive and willing to help. His place is very comfortable, clean, and well supplied. We were sad to not meet Donna as she was from our state but traveling while we were there in Galapagos. The outdoor area is very relaxing, and private. John helped with booking taxi service and coordinated an amazing boat trip to Bartolome. He checked in with us often, was very friendly, and was quick to respond. We would definitely go back and stay at Torre Mar again. we liked how close it is to many restaurants, shopping, and town center with excursions but still found it to be quiet and easy for us to unwind at the end of a busy day.

Oceanview Suite: Casa Nido

LisaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Excellent stay. We enjoyed renting bikes to go out to the Darwin Foundation. 1835 coffee and Midori sushi were both recommendations that we took from the host - absolutely wonderful experiences at both. Very unique stay in a beautiful “tree house”. Beautiful decor and touches throughout the home. It was everything we wanted and we’d definitely stay again!

The exterior of a charming structure features a blend of textured stone and vibrant painted walls. Arched doorways frame the entrances, complemented by a colorful window displaying geometric patterns. Lush greenery surrounds the building, enhancing its inviting appeal.

Bucanero's Hideaway.

GinetteRating, 5 stars1 month ago

The accommodation had everything you needed, especially water! Carlos is a friendly host, who put us in touch with less expensive tours than agencies for boat or taxi excursions. It also allowed us to leave a few hours later than expected without penalty. We really enjoyed his help, kindness and flexibility.

Casa Marina, Galapagos

JamesRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

If I could give 6 stars in my review, I would gladly do so! My friend and I found Casa Marina to be luxurious. It has four levels. The first level is the main salon which includes a beautiful dining area, a spacious living room, a fully-equipped large kitchen, a workout area, and a beautiful bathroom. It is simply gorgeous, with many of Celso’s beautiful photographs on display that capture the magic of the Galapagos wildlife and breathtaking scenery. The next level has the bedrooms which are well-appointed and individually air conditioned. We slept very well in super comfortable beds. The next level is the spacious terrace that overlooks Peurto Ayoro’s bustling harbor. Just steps away from Casa Marina Galapagos, we found a terrific place to eat, “The Rock”. They have the best craft beer and food and their service was always terrific. I hope to return to Santa Cruz with my wife. We will definitely stay at Celso’s place. Celso is the best Airbnb host I have ever had!

The suite is in a great location on the way to Tortuga Bay. Quiet and comfortable, I had everything I needed for a long stay. Nestled in a residential neighborhood the suite is peaceful and close enough to town that you can walk everywhere. I did appreciate the air conditioning as it was very hot and humid during my stay. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

BettinaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We spent a few days at Mairen's place. It is a lovely, very well taken care of apartment. The apartment is in walking distance to the mercado municipal, bakeries, shops such as the main grocery store and the pier. The owners provided us with lots of useful information about restaurants and things to do. We enjoyed our stay and would certainly book to stay with Mairen again.

Family Suite

LeoRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Adrián’s place is a great location for bigger groups. As most everything in Santa Cruz is just a taxi away from the port. A bit hard to leave the place if it rains but he is prepared for that too. Lovely experience. Not really walkable but def less than 10 minutes away to the port via taxi. Would stay again, thank you for welcoming us to your place!

Nature

Sara LandeenRating, 5 stars7 months ago

We loved the apartment. We loved the hammock on the balcony. They had some fresh water for us to drink. They let us know how much a taxi ride should cost which helped us get around without worrying about it. The AC was nice. The neighborhood has plenty of little grocery stores and bakeries. We'd stay here again.

GiselleRating, 5 stars23 months ago

Excellent apartment, very spacious and comfortable, you have to walk a few blocks from the center/main dock, but the comfort of the place is worth it for an accessible price. Clean sheets. The host was very friendly and aware that everything is going well during the stay, I forgot a cell phone charger and he took great care that he could get it back.

Bucanero's Nest.

NazarRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Great 1st floor apartment, very clean, great host and service. Air conditioner is only in bedroom but it works great for both rooms. Kitchen is good, I was able to cook the whole week. Location is relatively quiet, it's 2 blocks from the main street and the market, but you can't hear the cars. Close to the trail to Tortuga Bay. 10-15 minutes walk to the port. There are a two more apartments in the same building, sharing the yard. Carlos was great, he offered towels and bedsheets change often, took care of the garbage too.

This was the perfect place to stay in Puerto Ayora. Easy to get to the main attractions in Santa Cruz and we cannot thank our host, Sandro, enough! He was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to assist us with local recommendations, popular routes to main attractions and even different ferry routes and times for the places we wanted to visit. I would recommend this place to anybody visiting Santa Cruz!
