El Barranco Galapagos Reviews

“Great hotel in an ideal location . Helpful friendly staff Nice pool and pool bar with views We had a sea view room with balcony which was really lovely Nice breakfast included but the breakfast room itself is a little tight . Would definitely stay again”

“Great breakfast. The pool area was especially enjoyable at the end of the day after long tours. One of the highlights was the deck, conveniently located next to the pool, where we were able to spot turtles, rays, and sea lions. The room was comfortable.”

“Amazing hotel, great location, especially if you like being near the water and seeing the wildlife, the pontoon near the bar was great for an afternoon chilling. I managed to see frigates, sea lions marine iguanas and much more. Quiet rooms, good breakfast. The bar cocktails were great too, lovely staff. I’ll definitely be back when I come to Galapagos again”
