House vacation rentals in Puerto Ayora

Our family of 4 had a wonderful time at Janet and Juan Carlos’ place. The location was ideal - stone’s throw from some of the best restaurants on the island and an easy water taxi ride away from the town side of Puerto Ayora. Juan Carlos was in and out in a separate house on the property and very responsive to any questions we had. We were out most of the time on various day trips but it was a great place to come back to, unwind and enjoy the pool. Our thanks to both Janet and Juan Carlos for being terrific and welcoming hosts!

Charles and Ximena were great hosts. They went out of their way to make sure we had a great stay. Galapagos Cottages is an excellent location clos e to Tortuga Bay. Also, the coffee, milk be beer in the frigde was perfect.

Amazing ambiance and excellent service. Only complaint is partially my fault, but some direction on airport logistics prior to arrival would have made trip more enjoyable, I was unable to make it to destination upon arrival because ferries were closed, and come to realize this massive inconvenience could have been avoided by knowledgeable communication, most visitors are not locals!! it's not OK to assume visitors know these logistics. Staff was amazing and particularly Lorana was absolutely amazing and made our trip 5 star she cooked delicious meals at really reasonable prices. Thank You Lorana!!!

Ximena and Charles were really great hosts. It was our first time visiting the Galapagos and they really made us feel welcomed. They organized everything we needed from the moment we arrived at the airport, helped us book tours, find restaurants, etc. The cottages are well stocked with breakfast, drinks and fresh fruit. It was really an excellent stay. We would happily stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful appartement. The family is very friendly and helpful! The location is really good, the kitchen has everything you need and they do laundry as well. They also recommended us Larry, a cousin of the family, from „Galapagos Dreams“ travel agency, with whom we booked all our tours and it was excellent! Thank you very much for having us!

We had a comfortable stay at the apartment. Daniella & her Mother were very kind & helpful. The property is four separate bedrooms (each with ensuite shower room) shared kitchen/dining/living area.

great place to rest or step, clean, excellent location. thank you guys, was amazing.

Great place, close to downtown area, walkable and taxis drove by often.

Beautiful house in the heart of nature. Full of wood, you feel like in the forest. Very clean and very well equipped - a dream home. It is not in the center of city, but easy reachable and the view from the terrace is worth the journey. You would like to buy it and stay there forever:) and the owners are just amazing:) A beautiful house in the heart of nature, smelling of wood. Very clean and perfectly furnished - like in a dreamy house. It's not right in the city, but the look from the deck is behind that piece of road. Najradsej by ste ho hned purchased and the rest tam naidy:) a majitelia is free

We had a great stay at Maria's place! It was very affordable and clean. Maria was a helpful host and responded quickly to our messages.

I had the most amazing stay at Joseline's house on Santa Cruz island! Her house is beautiful and well designed. You can tell she puts a lot of thought into the space and the decor. The house is an easy 10 minute taxi ride to town and I appreciated the peace and tranquility of Joseline's place compared to the hustle and bustle of the town. The house is a bit higher altitude than town which helped keep the temperature a few degrees cooler. The beds were very comfortable and we had everything we needed for cooking some meals. Her house is a great base for exploring the island! Make sure to check out the nearby ranches where you can see the giant tortoises and don't miss Tortuga Bay and Las Grietas for cooling off! I can't wait to return to Galapagos and I will definitely stay at Joseline's again!

This is a very cozy, clean and comfortable villa. Thank you Andreita. See you next time.

Great stay, definitely recommend. Everything was per description. Tatjana & Dustin were super friendly communicative and responsive. We had a minor issue with the AC and it was resolved promptly. Also gotta say that Tatjana and Dustin were very flexible they allowed us a couple of extra hours for check out as our transportation was later in the day. Nothing but thankful for this beautiful place and people.

Aldair's place is nice, close to "downtown" and comfy, just as the photos show. Aldair and his parents make sure guests are very well looked after and surely can be well recommended, it's a pretty good option when in Santa Cruz!

Location is amazing, on the main street with local food and close to the sea, 8mins by walking. House is too big for one person, and the rent price is amazing. You can cook here, Or Just go downstairs there are many restaurants.

If you are thinking of going to Santa Cruz and being a little away from the center. It's the one. Manuel, his wife and children welcomed us very well and were attentive every day that our stay is beautiful. They also told us a recommendation and how to get around, the taxi prices and everything so that they do not charge us more. It is by bus about 10 minutes from downtown and easy access both by bus, taxi, there are shops and food venues nearby, as well as the love tunnels that can be walked quietly. Thank you to the hosts for their attention with us.

A cozy and familiar place, easily accessible as the listing description, the host a very friendly person, recommended tour agencies and solved all my questions... recommended 100% would come back again!
