Staying at Flor’s flat was an authentic experience. Flor was incredibly hospitable and made us feel right at home. We had meaningful discussions and even enjoyed a meal she cooked for us. If you’re looking for a genuine and warm experience, Flor’s place is perfect.

I wasn't sure what to expect, but I really enjoyed my stay at Casa Arvakeni! Vanessa and her beautiful family are such marvelous hosts, they were always very communicative and as soon as I arrived they sat down with me, showed me a map of San Cristóbal, and told me all about great local spots for hiking and snorkeling! I really appreciated the comfortable room and bathroom to myself in a quiet part of town with decent Wifi, hot shower, and access to the family kitchen. Like all Galapagos, it is very safe and laid back here. Everything is within walking distance in Puerto Banquerizo: the house is just ten minutes from the dock, twenty-five minutes to the airport, and a twenty minute jaunt to lovely Punta Carola... Or walk just a little further and bingo: the Ensenada del Cerro de las Tijeretas is the perfect spot to see undersea life. Or you can cross town and head forty minutes in the other direction to Playa Loberia, where the snorkeling is also excellent. I am very grateful to Vanessa and her family, they are such welcoming and knowledgeable hosts! An excellent choice for any budget traveler who wants to support local folks, prepare their own meals and rest easy in this beautiful, enchanted paradise!

We stayed in a twin room which was small. Beds quite comfortable. Breakfast served in a small cafe downstairs- not a nice place. Very nice staff. Great location.

Casa Alexita

Puerto Baquerizo Moreno (Near San Cristobal)

Featuring a terrace, Casa Alexita is set in Puerto Baquerizo Moreno in the San Cristobal Island region, 800 metres from Oro Beach.

Julie

Absolutely wonderful. Alexita did everything possible to make my stay amazing. My room was large, the bed comfortable and I had a private ensuite bathroom with a warm shower. The kitchen had everything I needed including a large stove. Drinking water is supplied. Alexita did my washing which was way more than I expected. There was also complementary snorkelling gear when I was there. It is in a very quiet location and only a short walk into town. I walked from the airport as the taxi driver quoted US$50 for a 5 minute ride (it should only be a few dollars) - so ask before getting in. It took me 30 minutes and it is a flat easy walk except the last 5 or so minutes which is up a not very steep hill. An option is to walk into the town (5-10 mins) from the airport and then flag a taxi and ask the price. I was able to walk to all the nearby beaches. Alexita also organised my ferry tickets to other islands. A truly memorable stay.
