Highly recommend this eco-friendly stay on San Cristóbal!
The thoughtful sustainable design and low-impact practices, along with excellent fresh water from a local distributor, made our Galápagos trip feel truly responsible and comfortable. Hosts Harry and his wife were incredibly helpful and accommodating, sharing excellent local insights, arranging tours, and going out of their way to make us feel at home with delicious breakfasts each morning.

We felt very safe during our stay, and the owner’s husband was incredibly friendly and helpful. He assisted with arranging tours and transportation, which made our visit much easier. The rooms were cozy and comfortable, and the coffee was some of the best we’ve had.

The main areas and outdoor facilities are showing their age and could benefit from updates and improvements. Breakfast was also a bit disappointing compared to the rest of the experience. One unexpected issue for us was the large number of cats on the property. As non-cat people, finding a cat in our room one evening and seeing cats around the breakfast area was not ideal.
Overall, the hospitality was great, and with some facility updates and a few small improvements, this could be an even better experience.

Gracious hosts and lovely, quiet establishment. Homemade breakfast with a view of the bay is a wonderful way to start each day. The guard cats are charming company and the in-room AC is a treat. The staff keeps the place spotless but it is the tropics so expect pests … bring bug stuff if you’re a bug magnet like I am. The walk into town is a gentle 10 min downhill. The walk up is a little more challenging. Fun to walk past the locals and their shops. They’re building a pool and luxury rooms which will add value for a different clientele. I admire Harry and Lucrecia’s entrepreneurial spirit and generous company.

The photos on Expedia do NOT reflect the reality of this place. We didn’t even stay there and probably won’t be reimbursed. It was horrible, run down , poorly working a/c, non working safe, far away from the port, the hot tub was empty and the plaster eroding, I can go on and on…there are far superior places for less money closer to town. I Seriously urge you, DO NOT be fooled by the photos and phony ( they HAVE to be phony) 9/10 ratings!! This place truly deserves 0/ 10. I feel cheated. Ended up at Miconia which was very nice!

Luceria was very responsive to messages and was helpful and booked our taxi to the airport for our morning flight.

Comfort and value in a wonderful package

The owner, Harry, is a stand up guy who met us at the airport, saw to our every need and was attentive and proactive in ensuring he and staff met our needs. The room was very nice, providing excellent value for money. Being off the beaten path means it was quiet in the evening and restful, a short walk to the town (10 mins) gave the opportunity to us to see some of the real Puerto Baquerizo Moreno. Bith my wife and I enjoyed breakfast which was included, time with the rescue cats and the excellent wifi internet - which we learned at subsequent hotels is NOT guaranteed.

Based on the chats with Harry sounds like this place will continue to grow into an even more exquisite gem.

I booked the place thru Expedia with no preparation and in a hurry. The first impression was not favorable. Nobody met us at the airport and after a short taxi ride the empty hot street next to the metal gate was not a welcoming sight. We had to wait for long ten minutes until the gate was opened.

Do not repeat my mistake. This is not a Mariott or even Motel 6. Just a man and wife operation with some hired help. They are really busy even between seasons. If you want things to be ready for you, send an advanced warning at least one or two days ahead.

From day two everything clicked into place. Harry and Lucrecia are wonderful hosts. Simple breakfast with a nice view on the third floor of the building is ready by 7AM. Good coffee, fresh juice on ice and plenty of fruit with the usual huevos fritos or scrambled tostados with butter and cheese.

Laundry is quick and neat. Important for us, since my wife and I travel light.

Harry is also a licenced quide, he takes guests on tours practically every day and is very busy (see above). Nevertheless, he is responsive and takes care of difficult requests with ease and impressive efficiency. Ask him to stop the rain, - he will say no problem. Ask him to set up a snorkeling tour and the gear will be brought to you to your room to try it on. As soon as he got to know us a little better, his suggestions and recommendations were spot on.

The front of the Eco Friendly is likely to produce a negative impression and the walled in courtyard is not very attractive. The walls and gate promote privacy, however, and the room I stayed in was clean and rather spacious.

The breakfast area is nice and the breakfast fare was both good and attractively presented. Unfortunately, the portions were small and the cooks do not take special orders. When I asked if I could have scrambled eggs, I was told to please sit down and that I would be served shortly. I was never asked what I wanted for breakfast during my three day stay.

Steady taxi traffic in front of the building provides easy access to every part of town and the owner is attentive.

Had a great stay. Our favourite things about the hotel: airport pickup upon arrival, daily breakfast included with breakfast area overlooking town, nice social area, and most importantly, very very clean. It is a bit of a walk uphill from the oceanfront area of town, but we really enjoyed the walk, and allowed us to see an area we probably wouldnt have ventured to. If you dont feel like walking, there are tonnes of cabs all over town which cost only a few dollars. Would definitely recommend.

This is a very nice hotel. Free shuttle from airport (both ways). Very nice breakfast with an excellent view on the rooftop. The owners, Harry and his wife, are super friendly. The room is of course very clean. I also liked the secured front yard area. Highly recommended.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Galapagos Eco Friendly. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing. Lucrecia and her staff always made sure we were happy and satisfied. The hotel was a bit father than we would have like from the port and shopping, but still easily walkable (5-10 min). Would stay here again and highly recommend.

A fantastic place to stay in San Cristobal

This is a fantastic place to stay. Harry for Manager of the hotel is very attentive and very easy to work with. Our room was spotless, the air conditioning worked well, the breakfast is amazing, and the whole property is just very, very nice. Would highly recommend this place!

Our experience here was very consistent with other reviewers'. The room was fine (small but clean, decently comfortable but not over-the-top, though we did REALLY appreciate having both a mini-fridge and a microwave, plus the hot water in the shower was key). It was generally pretty quiet, as it's tucked away from the street, though we did get some neighbor noise, as the rooms are pretty close together. WiFi worked well though not in the front lounge area by the office. The breakfast is plentiful and there's a rotating hot option; the view from the breakfast area is lovely. We really liked that they have a water dispenser for refilling bottles. There are several friendly cats on the property, which we loved. The courtyard area has multiple spots for lounging or even enjoying a meal/drink. The hosts, especially Harry, were very welcoming and helpful. They arranged (and paid for) rides to and from the airport, let us check in early, etc. They also had great communication before we arrived. I couldn't tell the specific ways in which they are eco-friendly, beyond having the water dispenser. The walk to the water and main parts of town is downhill maybe 8 minutes; we didn't mind this because it means the property is quieter and less busy, but for some it's important to be in the center of things, so this is worth noting. I thought it was good value for the area.

We had a fantastic stay. The property is really quirky and unique, which we loved. The owner Harry was absolutely delightful, and made us feel very welcome. They even packed us a breakfast to go when we had an early morning tour! The rooms were super clean, the AC worked great, and the wifi was fast. You can walk to town (about 10 min), or it's easy to take a cheap taxi. They also supply drinking water which really helps cut down on plastic bottle use. We would very happily stay here again!
