We stayed several times here over a couple of weeks moving around the Galapagos. Max and his brother were lovely, helpful and ran a tight ship! It’s also a solid central location.

Capitan Max is located just off a strip of restaurants. It is an easy 3-4 minute walk to the main street and to get to the pier. It is clean, has friendly staff, basic breakfast is included - cereal, eggs, toast, coffee/tea, and fruit. There was lots of filtered water to fill your water bottle. Overall, a good B&B and would stay there again.

Captain Max was really good with comunication and arranged for us the taxis to take us to and from the ferry area. He was very friendly and helpful. The place is in a great location very close to delicious restaurants, shops, and the malecon. Nice walk over to the teh charles darwin research center. Easy to catch water taxis and tours. Downside. You are near the hapening area so it could get loud. The room was good size and the AC workes great. Would recommend. It is probably a little more rustic then some b and b's, but overall very happy with the stay.

The property was excellent and the owner was super friendly and helpful with all the questions we had. The property is super close to the main dock where all the restaurants and shops are. And is within walking distance of some beaches and the darwin centre. Capitan Max is definitely a great choice for anyone looking to stay on Santa Cruz Island!

The property doesn’t accept credit cards for check-in; something it was not listed on property details, you have to download an app to pay via credit card but the other thing is that wifi is horrible at this property; in other places the wifi works fine, and last if you stay in one of the bedrooms facing the street you won’t sleep after 5:30am with the sound of trucks, motorcycles and the elementary school in front.

Max is a lovely host and he is very helpful. The breakfast is hearty and filling. The hotel is well located and close to pharmacies, bank machines, the grocery store, and port. It is quiet at night and the huge bed was so comfortable! Great value for the money.

This hotel met our needs. Super convenient, clean and great service. It was only a few minutes from the port and the Kioskos. Max was very helpful in coordinating taxis and providing information on tours. Internet was a bit spotty, but that is true for the whole island. Breakfast was a bit underwhelming, but still met our needs. Had to pay for the hotel with cash (couldn't take credit), but was doable with close ATMs. Overall would highly recommend Capitan Max. Great bargain and excellent service! Thanks Max
