Situated on the oceanfront in Puerto Ayora, the Red Mangrove blends in naturally with a surrounding mangrove forest while offering the most pleasant views of Academy Bay available on Santa Cruz. The hotel’s very own private deck and restaurant area have incredible panoramic scenes of the Galapagos Islands.

All Red Mangrove’s accommodations have either an Ocean or Mangrove View.  Each room has been remodeled with new interior designs, new bedding has been implemented and guests can enjoy amenites like luxury bath products and even a mini fridge!

Isla Grill and Almar specializes in a variety of fresh sea foods and meats cooked with an Argentine and Galapagos-Ecuadorian flare. Local Suppliers such as farmers, fishermen and local livestock are used as the primary providers. This is a major factor in how Isla Grill operates. Sustainability is an important aspect of managing any business, especially in the Galapagos Islands. Over 80% of All Products are acquired on Santa Cruz, the same island where both Red Mangrove and Almar by Isla Grill are located. These local products include octopus, codfish, tuna, vegetables, fruits, chicken, coffee and more.

Watch the Galapagos sun rise and fall on the recently Renovated Deck and Restaurant of Almar. Guests are now able to enjoy new tables, chairs, loungers and an inviting outdoor lounge concept. Beyond this area we reserved the term “official sea lion resting area” as a result of the constant presence of sea lions looking for a place to relax with their marine iguana friends.

Furthermore, if guests prefer something lighter for during the day in between Island Hopping or exploring on Santa Cruz; coffee, tea, and water are always available in the Reception Area as shown below.
