The Acacia is a lovely hotel. In addition to the large comfortable rooms with modern bathrooms, the staff is wonderful. I cannot say enough about the level of professionalism, kindness and hospitality provided. One of the staff members even accompanied us to the medical clinic. Breakfast was also a treat. Location is just off the main square. Very easy walk to everything.

We had an excellent breakfast pack from them on our early morning excursion. Well presented and packed for us to eat as we got hungry on the boat trip. All were wrapped in eco-friendly packaging. 10/10
We were super happy with how they explained their commitment to being responsible towards nature and what they do to be actively involved. The info in the rooms was presented subtly, although not overwhelmingly. The free shopping bags and water bottles were a nice touch.

Puerto Ayora is a place where you can enjoy the nature and have the facilities of touristic places like different restaurants, bars, etc. Unfortunately, because of those facilities the fauna has gone to other islands like San Cristobal so that is a downside, but if you go with family it is a great place to get a screenshot of what Galapagos is.

A small but beautiful city.
A small but beautiful city. It was a fishing village but has been transformed to a tourist town. The main street -- Ave. Charles Darwin, is full of life, literally -- sea lions, iguanas, pelicans, etc. It's an adventure like no other.

It's a nice, friendly town.
It's a nice, friendly town. It's got plenty of ATMS, several grocery stores, and a lovely oceanfront walk. The fish market is a must see in the morning. There are sea lions who hang around waiting for scraps. I also saw iguanas and pelicans waiting for handouts. There's very nice bars, restaurants, and market stalls. It's a little spendy, because you're on an island. There's things you can do for free, on your own. There's also TONS of tour companies running day trips to all the nearby islands. You can walk most anywhere, and there are cheap taxis as well.

The touristy part and the harbor to the Darwin research...
The touristy part and the harbor to the Darwin research center was full of shops, restaurants both cheap and expensive, street food, and travel agencies. People are friendly and it’s clean and safe.
Los Kiosko is an intense street where people are coming at you with menus trying to get you come to them - at the same time. But they have specials for $5 lunch or dinner plus a regular menu with cheap meals too. Great Ecuadorian food! We ate ice cream everyday! There was a little froyo place on Baltra and a gelato place down the same street closer to the harbor that was excellent. We found pan de yucca at a street food vendor that was magical, though not always open.
Sea lions are everywhere near the water (not in the same capacity as San Cristobal but still).
You can watch blue footed boobies diving into the water all the time and the frigits are out in mass as well!
Everyone is happy.
Also we found our favorite travel agency with the Galapagos Living Travel Agency. They were fair priced and hilarious. Lots of laughs and planning of epic next day adventures.

We liked the laid-back feeling when the main road was closed in the evening and the music of the street musicians. We also liked the accessibility of shops, beaches, wildlife, information centre and harbour,
Above all, we appreciated every smiling face and helpful citizen in town.
The hotel is in a very convenient residential location and is maintained spotlessly clean, THANKS to Alicia, who is always around and working very hard. We really enjoyed the hammocks and the balcony outside our room. The kitchen is an added plus as we were craving home-cooked meals. Alicia voluntarily helped us with taxi pickup for our return to Baltra airport, including a stopover at Los Gemelos. Overall, it is a great stay at a reasonable price.
I had a problem while staying in Puerto Ayora and Alicia was able to assist me greatly. She called people so I could change ferries and tours. She allowed me to stay an extra night at short notice. The room was always kept extremely clean and tidy and the price of the room per night is extremely reasonable. It is also very close to the restaurants on Charles Binford Street. I would really recommend this to anyone staying in Santa Cruz.
The staff was absolutely amazing - not just responsive to our needs but anticipated them! Breakfast was amazing with a full buffet plus special orders. Our room was modern and spacious and was immaculately clean. The location was perfect for us as it was very close to the pier which was convenient for all of the excursions and ferries. We appreciated the complimentary use of bicycles which was perfect for exploring Puerto Ayora
the place is amazingly exceptional, the staff is very courteous and friendly, great costumer service, breakfast great, enough, room always clean, generally speaking feel like home in there, wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place.
Is a bit far from Puerto Ayora, but worth it, taxi cost only $ 1,50.
Safe hotel, safe place, amazing.
My sincere thanks for the staff, keep up the good work!!!!!!!
A very nice hotel. New, clean, nice swimming pool. Rich breakfast. Located very close to the main street, restaurants and fish market. Rooms facing the pool are quieter but less bright. It doesn't matter, both options are good. The service is very engaging. Emilia, Carolina, José and others do everything to make guests happy. We recommend this hotel for your stay in beautiful Puerto Ayora.
Good breakfast, nice hotel in a walking distance from town centre (or you can take a taxi for 1-1.5 dollars) and great, friendly and very helpful staff – a guy from reception took care about me during the whole stay and organised all trips (to Isabela, Pinzón, Seymour Norte and Santa Cruz- El Chato) for me with a local agency for better price, than you can find on internet.
The staff was very kind and polite. The facilities of the room are very nice (Netflix, fan, hot tube, internet and so on). The hotel is about 5-10 minutes from center.
The host recommended us a restaurant for the breakfast located at 2 streets away which was very good.
Also, the trail towards Tortuga Bay is close to the accomodation.
They called us a taxi at leaving.
Casa cascada is a lovely place in Puerto Ayora. The beds are comfortable, facilities clean, staff is helpful and accommodating and the price is very affordable for Puerto Ayora. It is a safe 15 minute walk or so to the waterfront. The staff helped me secure a ferry ticket when they were sold out and assisted me in planning my trip.
Second floor apartment located across from the ferry dock in Puerto Ayora. Good value for family of 4. Excellent location with lots of restaurants and shops nearby. Modern apartment is large and quiet with a functional kitchen, living area and large bedroom with 2 queens. Plenty of closet space, Wifi worked fine, A/C in bedroom.
The hotel was exactly what we hoped for in terms of locations and cleanliness, and Pedro was incredible! He helped with everything from booking last minute tours to making eggs every morning. The location was perfect for walking to everything Puerto Ayora had to offer and the room had everything we needed.
I adored the mother and daughter who keep this hotel running. They were helpful and had a wealth of knowledge about things to do in the area. I can't recommend this hotel enough for anyone interested in a more extended stay in Santa Cruz. I applaud them for their patience as I tried to navigate Spanish.
Amazing location in Puerto Ayora with the nicest owner you will ever meet. Josy went above and beyond to help make my stay amazing - especially helping to coordinate tours and Covid restrictions. Definitely the most gracious host I have ever stayed with.
I loved how friendly the family was, the room was very comfortable and clean. You can easily get a 1 dollar taxi to puerto ayora. The breakfast was delicious and big portions. No wifi or service but I expected it so I don’t complain :)
- Location 5 mins from Puerto Ayora's Malecón, with everything (restaurants, market, pharmacy, etc. close by)
- Very helpful owner, supporting with booking tours, advice, etc.
- Good breakfast buffet with eggs cooked fresh to order
Very warm welcome. We were made to feel at home and enjoyed a really nice breakfast. Being slightly outside the main town (Puerto Ayora) made it feel very tranquil. Lovely green surroundings with beautiful flowers and banana trees!
Everything about this place exceeded my expectations. The host is attentive and helpful and very friendly. The hotel is clean. The breakfast is very good and there are other things there like hammock and books and a Jacuzzi, etc..
Brilliant room, 2 bedrooms, large balcony, sitting area lots of space. Great service. Best hotel of a month of travelling around Ecuador. Lovely breakfast. Free coffee in the lobby. Very central. Super!
Amazing hospitality, Nelyza was super nice and an amazing host who helped with everything and provided great recommendations on what to do in Puerto Ayora. Really felt like family!
