Galápagos Hotels

Santa Cruz Island - A prime selection of eco-lodges, boutique hotels, and luxury camps.

Pikaia Lodge

Pikaia Lodge

The Pikaia Lodge concept is designed for the environmentally conscious, physically active and adventurous traveler, who seeks close contact with the unique natural wonders of the Galapagos, with the highest level of comfort and services that can be provided within the limitations of such a remote, restricted and eco-sensitive location.

In contrast to traditional cruises, our land-based day tour programs offer higher comfort, more privacy and personalized attention, a finer gastronomy, a convenient arrival & departure date flexibility, and most important, the possibility to avoid seasickness.

You will also discover some of the finest beaches of the Galapagos on Santa Cruz. Children are welcome in Pikaia Lodge. We have activities for them, too. Pikaia Lodge is one of the most advanced green lodges built in the world.

With subtle architecture that mimics the surrounding volcanic rocks and attractive wooden walkways leaving the environment undisturbed, the National Geographic Unique Lodges of the World hotel has a distinct sense of place.

Semilla Verde is situated on the fertile slopes of an ancient and extinct volcano in the rural uplands of Santa Cruz Island. The grounds comprise twelve acres of private forest replanted with endemic and native trees, under which organic, shade grown ‘conservation coffee’ is growing.

The rooms are big with private bath, incredible views and special charms. The meals we serve are prepared using fresh ingredients and purchased locally when available.
