A Beaux Arts exterior sets Palo Santo Galapagos Hotel apart from its coastal surroundings in Puerto Ayora on Santa Cruz, Ecuador. The 26-room hotel stands beside the sea, seconds on foot from both the Malecon promenade and Playa de los Alemanes. Pets are not permitted anywhere on the property.
Academy Bay sits 0.1 kilometers away, and Las Ninfas Lagoon is 1 kilometer from the property. The Gus Angermeyer Ferry Terminal lies 0.2 kilometers from the building, while an airport shuttle handles transfers to Seymour Airport 48.2 kilometers away. Galápagos National Park begins 0.3 kilometers from the hotel, putting protected land within a short walk. The sands of Tortuga Bay Beach sit 1.3 kilometers down the coast, and the Charles Darwin Research Station is 2.3 kilometers along the shore.
Mornings start with a free full breakfast served inside the bar, while an outdoor barbecue area provides space for cooking meals later in the day. Above the building, a rooftop terrace looks out across the surroundings. Below, an outdoor pool and hot tub sit on the grounds, and an on-site canoe offers a way to explore from the water.
Guests frequently praise the helpful staff and highlight the large, modern rooms. Several reviewers appreciate the quiet location near the beach, reached by taking a water taxi across the bay. A recurring reservation involves the swimming pool, with multiple guests reporting that the water was cloudy and insufficiently maintained.
