Like most people we stayed here and at the Isabella Red Mangrove hotel and took one of Red Mangrove's land tours. We didn't go to Floreana. Other than feeling it was ultimately too short of a trip (because we were having a great time), we loved our trip. Were there some hickups? Yep. Sometimes stuff like that happens. We stayed... More

Our naturalist guides Mauricio, Pablo, and David were very knowledgeable and helpful. You made our tours fun and exciting! Thank you for exceeding my expectations. Your professionalism was greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Charlene Varela

You thought a trip to the Galapagos was the perfect way to celebrate my husbands 60th birthday and Red Mangrove proved to be the best choice. With quality accommodations, great food and extraordinary service. We booked a 6 night 7 day package that included Santa Cruz, Florena and Isabelle islands. We substituted a day trip (for our dive package) and... More

We travelled to Galapagos for the 8 days Full Adventure trip, and it was absolutely wonderful! The start was a bit hasty with not enough time for us to have lunch before we went on the first excursion, but it did not matter. We had an excellent guide in Juan Carlos. And praise to Red Mangrove for giving us one... More

My girlfriend and I decided to visit Ecuador, but only had two weeks. We wanted to visit a few other places as well, but we had to see the Galapagos. We decided we had 5 days - so at the last minute we found the Red Mangrove Aventura Lodge. We decided to do one of the Darwins Triangles trips, for... More

We were greeted and looked after by the best guides we have ever come across, who were friendly, exceptionally knowledgeable and informative and really looked after us well. The setting is great with wildlife sharing the lounge with us, and located adjacent to the Darwin center. A great way to see some of the Galapagos.

We booked the Darwin's Footprints, Santa Cruz and Isabela islands. We absolutely loved the Aventura Lodge (not so much the Isabela lodge, see separate review). We were greeted right away with smiling faces and very friendly staff which most spoke some English. We had Mangrove rooms that were very nice & clean. This hotel is on the water and has... More

Unique! Hotels, location, food and especially the guide, MariaElena Aviles, all were excellent! I will return in few years! If you go in the rain season, do not forget a raincoat, windbreak jacket and hiking shoes. Sunscreen and insect repellant are mandatory:)

Just returned from a 6-day trip to Galapagos where I stayed with the Red Mangrove on both Santa Cruz (3 nights) and Isabela (2 nights). Overall I was extremely pleased with the hotel and I highly recommend it. Its key strengths (for both SC and Isabela) are: 1. Service is excellent: very polite and helpful staff, always there to help... More

The hotel was at the seaside. The first night, I stayed in a room next to the sea. I could hear the soft sound of waves. When I returned after a few days, I stayed in a family room with a little private "garden". Both rooms were very neat and clean. I was told that bugs were everywhere in Galapagos... More
