“Semilla Verde is an intimate eco-getaway just 10 minutes from Puerta Ayora. Robert treated us like family. The food, service, and accommodations were all fantastic! We counted 19 giant tortoises while walking through the beautiful paths that surround the property. If you want to get away from it all and relax in nature, Semilla Verde is the place to go.”
“This is a great place to stay! We loved being there! Catya is the best!!!”
“I loved the peace and quiet. The staff are excellent and welcomed me in. The property is stunning. The yoga studio was lovely. I could not have asked for a better last night in Galapagos. Semilla Verde is like a slice of heaven in paradise.”
“A uniquely beautiful location. A great host - Cattya - highly knowledgeable, personal, charming.”
“Gladys, the housekeeper and cook is so incredible--wonderful dinner, lovely conversation. She really looked after us and made sure we were taken care of. Proprietor, Robert, was very helpful and welcoming as well. They both worked hard to make stay lovely.”
“The food they cook is always amazing. The coffee they grow is one of the best coffees I've ever had. The staff, especially Katya, are extremely helpful and nice. Very comfortable.”
“We had a fantastic time at Semilla Verde and were very well looked after by Cattya and the local ladies who cooked amazing meals for us every day. Would recommend to anyone looking for a bit of peace and quiet to recharge batteries! We also received a free upgrade to the superior room on arrival which was amazing - thank you!!”
“Robert. is a wondefull person what gave us all information about the island (do and dont's) also is a warmy guy very pleaseant and try to help us whetever we need.”
“Galapagos is a remote location and to fully enjoy the nature there you should not stay at a big hotel. Sevilla Verde offers you an incredible location, away from the town where you live in the middle of the expansive Galapagos nature. Walls and trails all around and Giant Galapagos Turtle on your doorstep. The lodge is simple but offered everything we needed. Food was always great and can be adjusted if you don't like anything or have restrictions - but I tried everything and cannot say that any plate was less than delicious. The bonus is Robert, the owner/manager. He is an incredible person, has been an Galapagos for several years and really makes you fell welcome. He can be your concierge or keep telling interesting stories all day.”
“We enjoyed the personable hospitality from Robert. He made our short stay (one night) a fun and relaxing event. The lodge is beautiful with a gorgeous view of the night sky and the surrounding vast greenery. Will definitely consider staying at Semilla Verde again.”
