    The hotel is called Galapagos House on the TCT permit system, not Acacia. Would have been good to know that when we booked so we didn't have to call to find out about it when we were applying for the permit.

    Excellent location and very warm and welcoming staff who gave excellent local recommendations too. The breakfast was great and the availability of filtered water on the floor was a great plus too.

    The pool and breakfast areas could use some nicer decorations or maybe a hedge to make it more private. Wifi on the top floor is very poor if working at all.

    Spacious room with comfortable beds. Clean. Very good breakfast even if it’s a set menu. Very flexible with early check in and late check out. Great service overall.

    Two evenings during our stay, the pool and jacuzzi was taken over by a group of Americans, who got louder as the evening went on. We couldn’t read on our balcony as they were very loud. There were bottles and glasses all over the pool area and no one else could use the pool from 4.00pm onwards as there really wasn’t space for anyone else. The staff should have made sure that others could use the pool and also made sure the space was cleared of bottles etc.

    We were welcomed with a cold juice and an iced cloth which was very welcome as we were hot and sweaty after disembarking the afternoon ferry from Isabela. Breakfast menu changed every morning. Lovely airy rooms, good air con and comfortable bed and pillows. Well maintained.

    Fantastic gem of a hotel right off the harbor
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Standard Double Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    The street itself the hotel is on is very quiet which is good because the wall is mostly made of windows so when the diving center next door loads up equipment you hear it early in the morning. This didn't really matter because there are so many early tours/activities that you are getting up early anyway. Just something to know.

    Hotel Acacia exceeded our expectations. The rooms were very clean, had high ceilings, & were beautifully decorated. We had water bottles available to us during our stay & a fridge in the room. The air conditioning was strong & nice (ceiling fans were available above both beds). The beds were comfortable with nice pillows & were large (2 king beds). We really appreciated the blackout shades to make the room dark & having a balcony to dry clothes was helpful. The bathrobes for each guest were a nice touch. The lounge area on the first & second floors were nice added features. The staff were very friendly. Jose & the manager especially. The breakfast available every morning was fantastic. We enjoyed our stay & would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a nice hotel & wanting easy access to the downtown harbor area. This hotel was a great value & is a great alternative for those looking for a great hotel that isn't as pricey as Finch Bay. We had a very enjoyable stay & I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

    I loved the pool at the hotel, but I wish the water would be filtered out more so the bugs and daily grime would be at a minimum.

    We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff were friendly, helpful, and very attentive to our needs. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location is perfect (just a few minutes walk away from great restaurants and shops). If I ever come back to Santa Cruz, I will always want to stay here.

    Like most hotels in the town this hotel appears to be built on the plot of a house. But it’s well laid out with rooms on 3 levels. The rooms are comfortable and clean with en-suites. All the staff were very helpful and accommodating and arranged packed breakfasts for us on early starts. Special mention to Jose Miguel who communicated with us before and during our stay with watsapp and was very helpful. A great place to stay to explore the town and islands.

    Acacia is an excellent hotel. Beautiful room with a balcony. It costs a little more than the standard room, and it is worth it. We needed help to find medical help and the people in the hotel were so helpful. They made us feel at home!! Good breakfast and very good location as well. Highly recommended.
