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.
Hotel Solymar is a charming Mediterranean-style property situated on Pelican Bay in the heart of Puerto Ayora, Santa Cruz Island, just minutes from the renowned Charles Darwin Research Station. The location places guests at the center of the Galapagos experience, with the energy and character of Puerto Ayora's waterfront immediately outside the door and the natural wonders of the archipelago within easy reach in every direction.
The hotel's outdoor pool and sweeping ocean views create an immediate and lasting impression of place, where the blue of the water and the warmth of the Galapagos sun define the atmosphere from morning to evening. The Mediterranean aesthetic gives the property a light and inviting character that feels perfectly suited to the island setting, with open spaces and a relaxed sensibility that encourages guests to slow down and fully absorb the extraordinary environment around them.
The Oceanfront Bar is the social heart of the hotel, positioned next to the terrace and pool with unobstructed views of the bay and the horizon beyond. It is widely regarded as one of the finest spots on Santa Cruz Island to watch the sunset, and the combination of expertly crafted national and international cocktails, a full menu of snacks and dishes from the restaurant, and the sound of the water just below the terrace creates an atmosphere that is both convivial and deeply relaxing.
Whether returning from a day of snorkeling, wildlife encounters, or island exploration, Hotel Solymar offers a welcoming and beautiful base where the pleasures of the Galapagos can be savored long after the day's adventures have come to a close.

Puerto Ayora
Puerto Ayora is located on the southern end of Isla Santa Cruz. Puerto Ayora is a charming port town where sea, sun, seabirds and sailboats coexist. On the town's outskirts are the headquarters to the world-renowned Charles Darwin Research Station. Many travelers just pass through on the way to see Lonesome George (a 150-year old tortoise; the last of his species) at Darwin Station. Puerto Ayora is a lively seaside town offering international cuisine, oceanfront hotels, outdoor bars, scuba diving schools and an avenue of boutiques with everything from tie-dyed sarongs to Panama hats. Relish the Islands' crescent slices of sand, spectacular diving, mountain top vistas, and tropical climate. Visit select islands and choose from an array of outdoor activities, such as kayaking, scuba diving, snorkeling, horseback riding and mountain biking. Puerto Ayora provides the most convenient base for island hopping. Three boats, the Delphin, Esmeraldas III and Santa Fe, offer day trips to Florena, Bartoleme, North Seymore and Plazas.
