Hotel Casa Blanca
The second land base of the archipelago: a smaller town than Puerto Ayora, with the island airport (SCY) right there — an easy first or last night of a Galápagos trip.
Hotel Casa Blanca
Puerto Baquerizo Moreno is the second land base of the islands, and the one with the airport in town: San Cristóbal’s SCY runway is right there, so a night here fits naturally at the start or at the end of a trip, with no extra crossing to catch a flight. Hotel Casa Blanca sits in the upper price band of a town that is smaller than Puerto Ayora and has a shorter list of hotels — which is precisely why some travellers choose this side of the archipelago. Rooms, facilities and current terms are on the property’s own Booking.com page.
Best for: Travellers landing or leaving at SCY, and anyone who prefers the smaller of the two bases.

Good to know
- San Cristóbal’s airport (SCY) is at Puerto Baquerizo Moreno itself, so arrival and departure days cost no extra crossing; flights come from Quito (UIO) and Guayaquil (GYE).
- On arrival each foreign adult pays $200 for the Galápagos National Park entry tribute plus $20 for the Transit Control Card: $220 in cash, collected at the airport and never included in tour prices (nor are the flights from the mainland).
- Itineraries, visitor sites and wildlife sightings are never guaranteed: the National Park assigns the sites and the sea decides whether a crossing sails.
