Do you have any hotel recommendations for Puerto Baquerizo Moreno in San Cristóbal, Galapagos?

The Galapagos Islands offer an intimate experience for travelers - you won't find any huge all-inclusive hotel resorts for example! However, just because the islands are remote and small it doesn't mean they lack delightful hotels and guest houses. Here are our recommendations for where to stay on San Cristobal island before or after your wonderful Galapagos cruise.

Hotel Mar: This is a hotel that we recommend to all our customers - we stay here ourselves and know it well. This is not a luxury hotel, but it is fresh and bright, and the service is very welcoming and friendly.
