GALAPAGOS BY
MONTEMAR
In the heart of the giant tortoises’ territory, the coziest experience of refined, sustainable hospitality in the Galapagos
Welcome to Montemar Eco Luxury Villas, the warmest journey of luxury green hospitality on the Galapagos Islands. We are Reyna Oleas and Roberto Plaza, a couple of local conservationists who fell in love with the nature and the people of this archipelago and decided to do our part to protect one of the most biologically unique places on Earth.
This passion led us to design two enchanting Villas in the heart of the giant tortoises’ habitat on the island of Santa Cruz: at our singular sustainable farm, we curate customized activities for discerning nature-lovers looking for unique experiences that really matter in life.

EXPERIENCES
Once you arrive and meet our welcoming staff, we will host you in our fully-sustainable facilities. Contemplate the peaceful, prehistoric giant tortoises that freely surround the deck of your Villa in their natural habitat, sip locally-grown coffee and enjoy the moment.
Our curatorship of wildlife, outdoor activities, culinary and wellness experiences will show you why Montemar is the perfect hideaway to immerse yourself in nature and relax in between the mountain (“monte”) and the sea (“mar”) of the Galapagos Islands
Sustainability
Caring for nature and our local community is our purpose at Montemar. Staying in our Villas can be an inspiring experience for guests interested in learning the secrets of building green homes and tasting delicious homegrown, organic food from our agroforest. Thanks to our sustainable coffee plantation, we support research that contributes to the conservation of the giant tortoises

What our guests are saying
“Our family of seven adults could not have had a more customized, unique experience. Both land and water excursions were not only interesting, they were perfectly tailored to meet all our needs and desires. Our time on the property was exceptional. Farm-to-table food and service that went above and beyond”

“Our stay at Montemar was majestic and enchanting: lovely hosts and staff, service filled with heart and kindness. A once-in-a-lifetime experience that could never be replicated in any other place in the world, or with any other people. My heart, mind and soul have been forever enriched by this experience.”

“We're fortunate that we've been able to do a lot of traveling throughout the world. And Montemar provided us with the best vacation ever. Roberto and Reyna have built a special small boutique villa on a farm. We've never been treated so much like royalty. Most extraordinary hotel and staff.”
