If you're planning a trip to the Galápagos Islands and looking for a place that combines comfort, warmth, and great value, Verde Azul in Puerto Ayora checks every box. Our room was spotless from the moment we arrived — fresh linens, a well-maintained bathroom, and everything neatly organized. After long days of exploring the islands, coming back to a clean, quiet room made a real difference. The property itself is well-kept and has a relaxed, natural feel that matches the Galápagos vibe perfectly. The staff at Verde Azul genuinely go above and beyond. They were warm, helpful, and knowledgeable about the islands — offering tips on the best snorkeling spots, tortoise reserves, and local restaurants that we never would have found on our own. Nothing felt like too much trouble for them. That personal touch is what sets this place apart from larger, more impersonal hotels

Acomodação boa, limpa e perto da estação de Darwin.

We stayed at Hotel Verde Azul for seven nights and greatly enjoyed its laid-back atmosphere. The room was clean and the air conditioner worked well, the bed was comfortable, the shower had plenty of hot water, the breakfast hours were good (6:30-9:00), the hammocks by the pool were perfect for chilling in the shade during the hot afternoons, the walk down to the waterfront was an easy one, and, best of all the staff were very kind and helpful.

Great place to stay. Large, comfortable room. The breakfast is small and basic but that's fine.

Wonderful place to stay!

Average stay.

Location good, in residential area but close to centre. Changed our room at our request which we appreciated. Small swimming pool. Lovely hammocks by the pool. Staff spoke very little English so difficult to speak to them (we didn’t speak Spanish either!). I’m a vegetarian and don’t eat eggs, used google translate to say this but still given eggs. Breakfast very basic, roll, fruit and scrambled eggs. Coffee and fruit juice (watered down). Place is clean and cheap, just a little better than a hostel but you get what you pay for.

Breakfast was served fresh - upon arrival to dining area, eggs and plantain were fried. Bun super fresh. Coffee delicious. No ocean view, but pool was lovely to relax in after a long day exploring. Young lady at Reception, Andrea, couldn't be more helpful. A pleasure to deal with. She arranged airport transfer for me. Also helped carry bags up to room.

My room was clean! Within walking distance to almost everything I wanted to do. Breakfast was made fresh every day. The staff was extremely kind and helpful! My only complaint was the rooster that was nearby! Other than that it was quiet.

The rooms were big and well kept. The staff was awesome. The location was quiet and we could walk to the beach.

Buena atencion

Great hotel for the price

Habitación

We had an awesome time and everyone was so nice and helpful. The one thing I wish there was, was a tall mirror I could see my whole body/outfit in.

Una alberca pequeña

Excellent value for money. Staff were always friendly & ready to help. Rooms were spacious with en suites & tv. & I enjoyed relaxing by the pool at the end of each day & dipping in to cool off. It’s not the most luxurious hotel in the world & breakfast is basic, but what would you expect for £209 for 6 nights over new year. If you want 5* star facilities & treatment go & pay £200 per night at one of the more luxurious hotels nearby, I struggle to believe some of the negative reviews I read here before I stayed. It is probably the best value hotel I’ve ever stayed in! The location is quiet & peaceful but an easy 5 min walk from the town centre & seafront.

Personal muy bueno en especial Michael muy amable eficiente nos ayudó en todo incluso nos acompañó a ver un cable de celular que se nos dañó. Michael un ángel

Lovely hotel set back from sea and not far to town and beach. Very helpful staff. Everything functional and fit for purpose.

Está muy bien pero creo que debería haber unos botes de basura más grandes

Everything was great! Hot water was endless! The bathroom lock was a bit wonky but everything else was perfect. If you have any billing issues, call them directly. The people working the front desk speak enough English to help. We paid in cash when we arrived and everything was fine.
