We had a fantastic 3 night stay at Galápagos Eco Friendly in Dec 2024. Harry and his family were amazing hosts - friendly and accommodating. Harry met us at the airport and made sure our room had everything we needed. The room had a/c and was cleaned everyday and hot shower in the bathroom after a day out was wonderful. Breakfast every morning was very good. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it!

Harry goes above and beyond. Our triple room was great. The hotel is sparkling clean. We loved the cats lounging around. The breakfast was fabulous. We had an early tour and Harry had breakfast early for us. He also provided transportation from the airport, which was great.

Harry who runs the place with his wife is a 5-star host. We stayed 8 days and it was wonderful! We had a delicious breakfast every morning and Harry even helped us get some excellent day tours. If you're going to san cristabal island, galapagos and need a place to stay look no further. Stay at the Galapagos Eco Friendly hotel you'll be glad you did.

While San Cristobal doesn't have a huge infrastructure, the Hotel Eco Friendly was a great spot for our family. The hotel felt very safe and quiet with an incredibly welcoming staff, delicious breakfast and comfortable rooms. It was clean and relaxing and a short walk downhill to town. There is access to a washing machine as well as spots to hang wet items from your days on the water. I will add if you have a cat allergy there are MANY cats at this hotel (and all over town) so that might be something to consider. We loved it here and I would highly recommend!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Transportation to the hotel upon arriving at the ferry and departing from the airport was arranged and even paid for. We took a taxi from downtown one day because it was raining and it was only $2. Everything was very clean and breakfast was great. Filtered water is available 24 hours a day near the office. There is a beautiful view from the dining area on the 3rd floor.

Property said it had transportation from airport to hotel and we confirmed this transfer 3 times prior to arriving , but we’re still left at the airport without a pick up. We hired a taxi to take us to hotel. Description also said free area shuttle. Yet when I asked about the shuttle to go to the park, I was told they would call us a taxi which we paid for again. Much construction taking place which was fine for us. Location is not in the area of restaurants or conveniently located. It is walkable to stores and eating areas however. No working TV. Staff was very helpful in securing sold out ferry tickets for us to go to Santa Cruz. So happy for that. Also gave us a complimentary bottle of wine and breakfast to go. We preferred Santa Cruz Island over this one as well.

The owner was friendly at check in but not around much and there weren’t any other staff. We received no information or maps about the area etc like we have at other locations. It was in an inconvenient location with no restaurants around. It was difficult working out transportation to the ferry when we were leaving as nobody was around to assist us. Breakfast was fine and we could have eggs with our continental breakfast. I was disappointed as the ratings were so high on trip advisor.

Breakfast Rocks!
Great hosts! Locally owned, which is important to us. They went out of their way to prepare a gluten free breakfast for me both mornings. Great breakfast. Clean room with A/C. Property is a 10 min walk up a good hill, away from the hub downtown, but you can easily take a taxi. We enjoyed being a bit out of the center. Would stay there again!

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.

Harry and his wife run an excellent hotel on Santa Cruz Island. The breakfast (included) was exceptional and the view of the bay while eating is perfect for the start to your day. The room had a safe, microwave, fridge, comfy bed and the shower had plenty of water pressure. The staff was always friendly and always available to answer any of your questions. They will also meet you at the pier/airport when you arrive. No complaints, had a fabulous time. Thanks!
