Waterfront holiday rentals in Galápagos Province

Perfect place to spend a few days in Santa Cruz, very central, close to cafes, restaurants and the seawall. Also that Jean was always pending if I needed anything or some kind of information.

Amazing place. Very modern, new, clean and comfortable accommodations at the center of town but far enough from the loud bars. Oscar let us check in early and even helped us arrange a taxi to take us to the turtle reserve and collapsed crater viewpoint on the way to the airport. Highly recommended! Kitchen supplies are quite sparse but don’t bother cooking with all the great food options around town. And having a large drinking water container would have been nice so we didn’t need to buy the disposable plastic containers. Would be happy to pay a little extra for drinking water in or outside the unit at the backyard kitchen.

Alexandra was a great host! Answered all our questions and was available for help whenever needed. Location is great, place is clean, overall very good experience. Would recommend!

The pictures really don’t do this place justice—it’s much better in person. The view from the apartment is absolutely stunning. We had been staying at a much more expensive hotel next door, and their view couldn’t even compare. Nor could their service! The apartment itself is spacious and has all utilities you need. The balcony is larger than it looks in the photos, and we loved spending time out there just relaxing. It’s located at the end of the main strip, which means it’s quieter and more peaceful—something you will appreciate after busy days out. It’s still just a minute away from a strip though. Also there is a beach which sea lions nearby!! Just walk towards Charles Darwin center. It’s close and people were snorkeling there. Lucia was amazing, easy to reach and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. She owns a café right in the building on the second floor, and we ended up eating there every day. The food was delicious!! I highly recommend this place to stay.

Great location near Darwin Research Station.

It was a great stay. They lent me snorkel equipment, and the kitchen was clean and I was able to use it. The children of the host family were adorable. The room was like a rental house with a sofa and kitchen and was very comfortable.

Jonathan's place is great! It is walking distance to the peer, the restaurants and grocery. The place is sparkling clean, with a great kitchen. We will stay again at Jonathan place the next time we will be back.

This apartment is basically one block off of the main street of San Cristobal and is close to everything. The internet worked great (we were able to get our Netflix set up on the TV). They provide a huge container of drinking water so you don't have to buy one & the air conditioner works great. For directions, there was some confusion with the taxi driver over where the location was- I would use the name of the restaurant next door that the owner will provide to you in the instructions as a better landmark. The apartment is a very noticeable structure. Also, you will have to fill out a form before you arrive in the Galapagos on where you are staying- you should clarify with the host before you fill out that form on what information you should put in. They are very responsive via What*app but make sure you give yourself time before filling out the form.

A great place to stay while exploring the Galapagos.

Very nice stay! The Airbnb listing stated 2 beds but when we arrived there was only one but Maria gave us another private room free of charge. Lots of good recommendations on things to do on the island. Walkable location to everything in the town. Good kitchen facilities and the outside area was nice to chill in over breakfast and coffee before enjoying the day.

The stay was great and chilled. Not a lot of interactions or communication with the host but he was responsive when needed. It would be good to consider having a weekly tidy up and cleaning of the room for long staying guests.

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!

Wonderful location on San Cristobal! We loved relaxing in the hammocks on the front porch, watching the action in the harbor, and listening to the sea lions. There are a couple of rocks across the street where the Blue Footed Boobies like to perch, so we loved going to observe them up close. The sea lion colony is right there, it was so much fun watching the families - mothers and nursing babies, sea lions playing with each other. We could actually see the house across the harbor from the pier when we got off the ferry, and we walked right to it. On our last day we walked a half mile to the airport. We also walked to Playa Loberia which was about 2 miles each way. The snorkeling there was amazing - we swam with sea turtles and all kinds of fish. The house was great - the 3 bedrooms had great air conditioners for sleeping at night. Our stay was wonderful and we'd love to go back!

Wow this place was more than we could have hoped for. We had ages 17-85 and the home was beautiful clean and amazing wildlife. The stairs were kind of tricky but the host accommodated my 85 year old mother with a bed on the first floor (the couch was super comfortable but she went above and beyond). We had tons of hot water and Andrea quickly filled the filtered water jug every time we needed. We saw sharks sea lions pelicans and tons of fish/ crabs other wildlife from the patio literally feet away! We had nice lizard visitors to be expected on an island. Wish we could have spent another week sitting on the third floor open area or patio just watching wildlife . Taxi constantly available steps outside our courtyard and super close to pier. Will stay here again. Thank you for sharing your home!

We loved our stay on San Cristobal. This place was very clean with great AC and laundry which was easy to use. We were able to fit a fairly large group here comfortably. The location is very close to the airport (~5 minutes by car) and fairly close to the town center (~20 minute walk). The host was always kind and quick to respond to any questions we had. She went out of her way to bring us extra toilet paper when we ran out. The personal touch made a big difference! Overall I would highly recommend this place.

We had a great stay at Maria's place! It was very affordable and clean. Maria was a helpful host and responded quickly to our messages.
