The Royal Palm es un escondite aislado único ubicado en las exuberantes tierras altas de la isla Santa Cruz en el corazón de Galápagos. Diseñado y elaborado para complementar nuestro entorno natural, Royal Palm ofrece un paraíso espacioso y exclusivo.

El hotel y sus jardines, fuentes, piscina y jacuzzis al aire libre están rodeados por la belleza natural de la finca privada de 150 hectáreas del hotel junto al Parque Nacional Galápagos. El túnel de lava accesible más grande de la isla también se encuentra aquí.

En el Royal Palm puedes disfrutar de una gran sensación de espacio y hermosas vistas de gran alcance sobre las Tierras Altas hasta el mar más allá. Los helechos y la flora autóctonos crean un ambiente encantador de contraste y color y si miras de cerca, puedes ver algunos de los búhos, pinzones de pico corto de Darwin, pájaros garrapateros y garcetas que también viven aquí.

El hotel está ubicado a solo 20 minutos en automóvil de la bulliciosa ciudad portuaria de Puerto Ayora, con sus tiendas locales, restaurantes y mercado de pescado. Una “visita obligada” en el Puerto es la Estación Científica Charles Darwin. Nuestros diseñadores de aventuras están aquí para crear su propia experiencia de aventura en Galápagos.
