Royal Palm Resort

 

The Royal Palm Hotel is an intimate, tranquil retreat into the unique natural environment of the Galapagos, complete with superb service, fine dining and a sensitive appreciation of the region’s enormous yet fragile value. To ensure that guests from around the world experience all that the Galapagos Islands have to offer, the hotel features a wide variety of leisure and recreational tours and activities ranging from private plane tours, to scuba diving and sea kayaking, to beach combing and snorkeling, to horse-back riding, to windsurfing and deep sea fishing, to excursions to many of the region’s most important and beautiful attractions. Some, such as the hotel’s own lava tunnel, a spectacular geological work of art, are nearby – just a brief walk away.  Others are better appreciated in half-day or full-day tours and can be purchased either on the premises or in advance. Your stay in this lovely hotel will include a tour of the twin craters, lava tubes and tortoise reserve with English speaking guide.

The design of Royal Palm’s structures keeps the comfort and relaxation of guests in mind, but also capitalizes on the fact that the Galapagos experience is a blend of colors and textures, sounds, aromas and sights unmatched anywhere in the world.  A 500-acre resort surrounded by lush tropical forests, it offers 18 deluxe accommodations comprised of suites, villas and verandah studio rooms, two restaurants, and a swimming pool.  For those wanting to get a bit of exercise on their vacation, the Royal Palm Resort offers clay tennis courts, yoga classes and state-of-the-art exercise machines with your own personal trainer. The hotel also features a Galapagos Museum and Observatory.  Decorated with Galapageno art and furniture, each guest room features a private Jacuzzi, satellite television, Internet access, DVD and CD player, direct dial telephone and mini-bar.
