About the hotel and yoga studio

The yoga studio is a 600 ft. space, fully equipped with bamboo flooring and plenty of wall space. We will practice amongst extraordinary views through wall to wall glass windows overlooking the tortoise pond, forest and gardens.
The hotel has 9 en-suite rooms and options for single, double and triple occupancies. Each room has sliding glass doors to a private terrace and a hammock to enjoy the views over a private forest to the Pacific Ocean.

Food and Restaurant

Enjoy traditional home cooking using local produce for a mixture of traditional Ecuadorian and international fare. They are happy to cater to all dietary requirements including paleo, vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, lactose free, etc… Not all meals will be at the hotel. Three lunches will be served on the day tour boats and one or two dinners will be at a local restaurant.

Getting to Galapagos

You will fly into mainland Ecuador - either via Quito (UIO) or Guayaquil (GYE) and from there take a 1 hour and 40 minute internal flight to Baltra Island (GPS).

Climate

During the months of July - December the temperatures are between 65 and 77 degrees fahrenheit. This is top tortoise season. This is also the season most likely to spot whales and dolphins on the day boat tours.

Cost
Semilla Verde prices are designed to be as affordable as possible, but at the same time this is not a cheap destination due to the logistical costs of supplying an island community. Our retreat group has exclusive use of the hotel and all excursions are included in the price.
