VACATION DETAILS

Avanti Destinations

Every great journey starts with a single idea. Let me turn this hotel or experience into a fully customized trip, handling everything from airfare and accommodations to tours, transportation, and travel protection, so you can travel with confidence.

Finch Bay Galapagos Hotel is an intimate retreat on the south side of Santa Cruz Island, placed at the very heart of the Galapagos archipelago and surrounded by one of the most extraordinary concentrations of wildlife on the planet. The hotel sits directly on the beach, and the boundary between the property and the surrounding national park is deliberately blurred, meaning that marine iguanas, sea lions, tropical birds, and other iconic Galapagos residents are as likely to be encountered on the hotel grounds as anywhere else in the islands.

The 21 rooms are equipped with twin beds, private bathrooms, and ceiling fans, designed to offer comfortable accommodations that feel naturally connected to the island environment. A large swimming pool sits just steps from a sandy beach and tidal lagoons, and the restaurant celebrates the fresh flavors of the Galapagos and broader Ecuadorian culinary tradition.

Snorkeling, scuba diving, wildlife photography, and a visit to the nearby Charles Darwin Research Station all provide exceptional ways to engage with the extraordinary natural world that surrounds the property, while the beach and pool offer a perfect setting for those who simply want to relax and absorb the remarkable beauty of the Galapagos.
