Blu Galapagos Sustainable Waterfront Lodge, hotel in Puerto Ayora

Overlooking the Ocean, Hotel Blue Galapogos offers stylish accommodations in Puerto Ayora, the largest town in the Galapagos Archipelago.

Spoiled. Totally spoiled by Blu Galapagos. Everything was over the top perfection. The hotel is on the waterfront near the Charles Darwin Research Center and just enough on the edge of town that you feel isolated yet still within a five minute walk to the heart of this sweet port town. We stayed in the Darwin Suite which is primo for celebrating a loved one or yourself. I’ll be back for sure.

Hotel staff were friendly and very accommodating. Every evening they will ask you what time your excursions start, hot breakfast is served after 630am but if you are leaving for an excursion around that time they will make sure to have a boxed breakfast ready for you. Claudia, Carolina, and Jose were so wonderful and knowledgeable about the area. Carolina has the best restaurant recommendations!

    Beautiful quiet and attractive port in a bay with turquoise water full of aquatic and terrestial wildlife and colourful flora. Extremely safe, everyone residents and tourists polite, respectful and friendly. Good selection of restaurants and souvenir shops. The harbour lovely to walk around and encounter sea lions, pelicans, iguanas, frigates and much more. Fra Fre, the Rock, Red Tuna among some of the restaurants worth visiting.

    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.

    The bed was comfy and the kitchen had a good assortment of utensils. The skillet was the best we have had in all of south america. The room is nice and the AC (if needed) will keep you comfortable.Bellavista is very walkable and it is reasonable to ride the bus into the larger Puerto Ayora for ~.50-$1. Food and a grocery store are 2 minutes away. If you are tired of the beach or just want to explore the highlands area this is a good place to stay.

    The hotel itself was cool and quirky, the main reason why I booked this place. I believe all rooms are individually decorated which is a nice touch. The location of the hotel is quiet but close enough to the fish market and a few restaurants, no where in puerto ayora is difficult to get to by walking it's only a small town. The shower was hot once the tap had been run and I'd say that the WiFi was 'Decent' compared to other hotels on the island.

    Ruben, his mother Gloria, and the rest of his family that run the hotel are very nice and helpful. They answered all our many questions and you can tell they care about their guests and making sure they have a good stay at the hotel, as well as a good experience on Santa Cruz. The hotel is in a great location and very convenient to the main strip. The hotel has a relaxed vibe with a cute dog named Osa and we enjoyed our stay.
