Semilla Verde Guest House




If you're undecided about a placed to stay for your next land based trip to the Galapagos - look no further that Semilla Verde Guest House on Santa Cruz Island.

 

Run by husband and wife Robert and Daysi, Semilla Verde offers a terrific place to base your Galapagos adventures from. Naturalist guide, Robert, booked all our tours for us, made us breakfast each morning and worked with us on lunch and dinner selections, whether eating at home or in one of the neighboring towns.

 

We found the serenity at night to be a perfect match to the daily activities and the reason we went to the Galapagos to begin with. To unwind and be amongst nature. We no light pollution to speak of the night sky was amazing. And during the day it was just a 12 min free shuttle/taxi ride into Puerto Ayora. A bonus was that most of our day trips started at the Itabaca Channel which conveniently means that you are the last to be picked up (more sleep) and the first to be dropped off by the shuttle.

 

The home itself is terrific with AC in the bedrooms, modern updated accommodations, a pool and of course the surrounding acreage with recurring tortoise spottings.

 

Trust me, you would not regret staying with Robert and Daysi for your next trip.
