Casa Blanca is a cheerful, Moroccan-style family-run guest house in Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, San Cristobal Island.

Casa Blanca lives up to its name: a gleaming white, Moorish-style guest house overlooking the harbour in Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, the ‘capital’ of the Galapagos Islands on San Cristobal.  The hotel started life as a bed and breakfast, with just a couple of guest rooms but now it has expanded into an agreeable small hotel, still managed by the same family.

The white-washed guest rooms are small and simply furnished,   but there are some nice little quirky artisan touches in primary colours with local paintings and towel art. There’s an independently-run café-restaurant on the property, which plays Ecuadorian and Caribbean music – sometimes quite loudly..

The location is handy for town and accessing the pretty boardwalks close to the waterfront, where iguanas and sea-lions are wont to doze.

What our clients say

  • The Galápagos cruise was just so good. I don't think I can remember enjoying a recent trip so much.

    NJ, London Jan 2014

  • Highlight?: Probably a sea lion playing underneath me and showing off whilst I was snorkelling.  Beautiful.  

    DD, Uxbridge Jun 2018

  • The Galápagos trip was very sympathetic to the environment and local habitat.

    AD, Dublin Sep 2011

  • The Galápagos offer amazing access to stunning wild-life and a great week living on a boat.

    PJ, London Apr 2010

  • No-one should consider a Galápagos cruise of less then 8 days. We both had a holiday of a lifetime.

    LF Jun 2010

  • The Galápagos Islands were fantastic and beyond our wildest expectations.
