Santa Cruz Island Hotel Guide - Hotels with WiFi in Santa Cruz Island, Galápagos

"Good location and fairly quiet. I asked for a room away from the street and they were able to switch me into it. Breakfast is very basic, just eggs, toast, and some apples/oranges."

"Excellent property and the pool area was so beautiful. Breakfast was delicious and when we had early tours they wrapped up a to go breakfast as long as you told them the night before. If I ever come back to the Galapagos we will stay here again. Hot tub was great too. "

"Muy lindo todo <3"

"We had a great stay at Blu Galapagos. Loved the location and our room was perfect - Great view, well maintained and had a king bed. Even if the description says queen bed and the picture looks like a king, you can trust the picture. Morning breakfast with iguanas and seals, and all day Galapagos coffee availability made this stay special. "

"Everything was great. Best breakfast in Ecuador! The staff was very nice and friendly. Very convenient location."

"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. "

"Staff was very friendly and professional. They helped us with everything we asked for. "

"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, personalized touches throughout. A special thank you to Gustavo, the ever-present and gracious manager. The restaurant is excellent, with a warm team—Rita made us feel at home and remembered our names. Breakfasts are fresh, varied and awesome. Excursions can be organized by the hotel and work seamlessly. Duncan gave us a deep dive into the island’s geology and ecology, while Maritza kept our 8–14-year-olds fully engaged with her energy and knowledge. Boat tour days were a highlight—fantastic snorkeling, incredible island views, and a surprisingly gourmet chef onboard (kudos)! The boat crew was kind and professional. Guide quality, however, faltered which was disappointing. Overall, The Royal Palm is a peaceful, character-rich base for a Galápagos trip—elevated by excellent service, comfort, and nature. "
