This hotel is conveniently booked close (but not too close) to the busiest parts of Santa Cruz- so you can get around easily, but it’s not too loud. The only noise to be aware of is the school nearby- which we found endearing and not disruptive. There is a simple but tasty breakfast offered. And the staff were helpful in arranging a taxi for an early morning check out. A fun but sometimes disruptive part of the rooms are the hammocks- but even when it got in the way, I still enjoyed the character it brought to the room. Overall, I’d recommend!

Max and his family were the perfect hosts. This is a great family run bnb that is a great location off the main strip. Coffee was always brewing in the early hours when we were setting off for diving and tours. Restaurants and locations where tours start are just a walk away. Also very close to some very cute off the strip cocktails and food at bohemian bar and agave studio.

My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights and had a great time. The room was super comfortable and clean. Location was excellent, as it was just a short walk to just about anywhere we needed to be. Breakfast was great and it was nice to have water/coffee/tea and fresh bananas available 24 hours a day. Wi-fi speed was also very good. My only minor complaint is that there is very little sound insulation in the room. So you can hear bugs, birds, and people talking outside. So if you're a sensitive sleeper, it might help to bring earplugs. But other than that, this place was great and I would totally stay here again.

This B&B was a great find. Very convenient to the main avenue without all the noise. Less than a 10 minute walk to the ferry dock. Great variety of dining options all around and many shops and tour agencies. The rooms were very clean, air conditioned, hot water available for showers, well decorated and provided a very homey feel to them. The breakfast was basic but was enough to start the day. Max was a very helpful and thoughtful host when it came to accommodating us in the best rooms and on offering advice on excursions. I would definitely stay here again when i come back to Santa Cruz and would recommend it to everyone.

After staying in hostels/hotels on each Islands, we stayed in Capitan Max on our last night in Santa Cruz before flying home. This B&B was fantastic. The shower was wonderful with great water pressure, the room was clean, the free waters coffee, ad fruit at any time was amazing, and the hammock in the room was a great touch. Not only that, but the owners were incredibly nice and accommodating, allowing us to check in a bit early after arriving from the ferry so that we could put our stuff down. The complimentary breakfast was also very delicious. This B&B is conveniently located next to a lot of places and is very close to the ferry. I would recommend this place to anyone going to Santa Cruz.

they sent out additional information regarding tours and Santa Cruz.
They were always ready to answer questions or to recommend places.
They have even gone to the trouble of making videos to explain how to catch the ferry etc. which is very reassuring when you have no idea what to expect.
My room was clean, spacious and nicely decorated. Fluffy white towels in the bathrooms, daily housekeeping, daily breakfast with freshly made eggs, I didn’t need anything more.
Lourdes was very helpful in booking my ferries to other islands which saved me a lot of time.

I think this B&B is way overpriced for what you get. Most of the rooms are dark with minimal lighting, not what you want on a tropical get away. Breakfast is very simple and is the same each day.

Our stay at Captain Max B&B was super. The manager, Pedro, was very accommodating. He had someone waiting at the airport to pick us up. He gave us advice on where to eat and where to go and helped us with all of our day tours. He reminded us each evening of what we would need for the next day, what time we would need to be ready, and served our breakfast early before our tour. We stayed 6 nights and found our room to always be clean and comfortable. Pedro helped us with cabs, general information. He shared so many interesting facts about his life there. He was what I would consider to be a super host. Thanks to him we had a fabulous week on Santa Cruz.

We had great stay, the staff was friendly and attentive, always happy to help us - from calling tour companies or giving advice to starting breakfast a little earlier when we had early tours. The bed was spacious and we loved the hammock - perfect for a siesta! We would definitely recommend staying here!

If I could give service more happy faces, I would! Pierre greeted me with a smile and things only got better from there. I went without a plan because I wanted guidance once I got there. I asked Pierre to help me pack days full of adventures. He planned out my entire trip, booked my excursions and then even sent me messages to remind me of my plans when I went to a different island. Also, I had been traveling for over a month and ran out of cash, I had read Galapagos accepted credit cards, but they really don’t. I had no cash for excursions. Pierre booked them anyway and then helped me find a way to get cash transferring money to him and then him giving me cash. (I did not have a debit card and the bank in Galapagos would not do a cash advance). Truly, I would have had nothing going on in the Galapagos if not for Pierre. Then when the photos from an excursions didn’t transfer, I sent Pierre a message and he was able to get in touch with the agency and get me the pictures!! Truly an awesome guy with a wealth of knowledge and abundantly helpful!!

Great B&B in the heart of Puerto Ayora. Pedro was the perfect host. He went out of his way to make us feel at home. Highly recommend it.
