Opuntia Hotels

I recently organised a group event at this hotel, and the experience was EXCELLENT from start to finish. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and quick to help with any request. Our group felt genuinely cared for, which made a huge difference to the success of our event! 🙌 Rooms are perfectly CLEAN and comfortable, shared areas were beautifully maintained, and the overall atmosphere was calm and inviting. Beautiful SEA VIEW from the front rooms! Good breakfast, coffee always available, and excellent LOCATION - you can walk everywhere from here! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this hotel for anyone looking for a wonderful stay and for groups. We will definitely return to this hotel for all of our groups events! Thank you Opuntia for helping make our event such a success ❤️

Nice hotel in San Cristobal with nice views of the ocean. Good breakfast and it’s free. The drawbacks on this hotel is there’s no elevator to bring your luggage upstairs. The water heater on the shower sometimes doesn’t work. And the staff at the restaurant area is rude always asking to get your plate even when you’re not finished eating and wanted you to leave the table. The area is walking distance to a lot of restaurants and souvenirs shops..

Very cute hotel. Staff were so helpful and friendly. Room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful. We had no issues at all during our stay. Would recommend! The staff also helped us do some last minute laundry.

Awesome location overlooking the ocean, wildlife and the malecon. Beautiful, large room with 2 spacious decks (one with a hammock) was incredibly comfortable. Steps from the malecon, sea lions, shopping and restaurants. Breakfast is an experience of its own, outside seating overlooking the ocean! Great way to start your day.

The Opuntia is right on the seafront Puerto Baquerizo, San Cristobal, a truly spectacular location. The owner is a real character and goes out of her way to make guests feel comfortable and the other staff are equally friendly and helpful. There is a small swimming pool and our room was clean, bright and comfortable. Our only concern was that one window had no curtains or blinds so the sun streamed in very early in the morning. Breakfast was basic but more than adequate and to be able to sit eating it while watching the sea-lions, blue footed boobies and pelicans in the bay was amazing.

we had the seaview...lovely. It would have been nice, if there would be a second chair on the balcony. But anyway we enjoyed our stay

Fantastic hotel. Highly recommend for experience and value. Tiny (12 room) boutique property, uber focused on service and cleanliness. Overlooks the harbor, (we could see our cruise ship) very bright and spacious room, outstanding breakfast (custom eggs, yogurt, fruit, breads & meats), very nice pool. Newer and powerful AC in the rooms. You can buy bottles of wine on site. I managed resorts for 40 years.. you can do the very corporate IHG Indigo hotel next door for twice the price, or stay here for a much more intimate and “real” experience. Any comments about the sea lion noise at night are missing the point of being here (or just close your sliding glass doors onto the harbor!!)

As many of stated, you are met with a nice glass of juice and readily checked in. Thats where the pleasantry ends if you get an interior room. The rooms are spacious but not really situated well. The main bed (a double bed) is right at the door, then had two singles off to the other side of the room. The AC was marginal, keep the room cool at night but the staff kept turning it off so the room got hot during the day. Had troubles with hot water but that was fixed(ish) the next day. There is no WiFi or television in the room, as well as no refrigerator to keep drinks cool- unless you use the community fridge in the reception area. But the fridge gets locked at 8:30pm when the staff leave for the night- so if you want a cold drink while sitting in the common area to use the WiFi better get it before 8:30pm. Not a 3- star hotel by any means. Especially when there is a hostel two blocks down the street that offers everything this place doesn’t. Casa Opuntia is nicely located overlooking the pier and you can hear the sea lions barking all day and night. You have plenty of dining options all around as well plenty of souvenir shops near by.
