Pikaia Lodge

Hidden within a secluded giant tortoise reserve on the edge of an extinct volcanic crater, Pikaia Lodge is a Relais & Châteaux property offering a refined, sustainable way to explore the Galápagos without sacrificing comfort. Designed as a land-based luxury eco-adventure, the lodge provides close, expertly guided wildlife encounters by land and sea, complemented by private yacht explorations aboard M/Y Vision Pikaia. With just 14 spacious suites, an infinity pool, spa, and fine-dining restaurant, Pikaia offers privacy, comfort, and uninterrupted views in a truly remote setting. Guests enjoy all-inclusive, tailor-made programs of 3 to 7 nights that balance discovery with relaxation, returning each evening to the comfort of the lodge. Recognized as the World’s Leading Adventure Hotel from 2022 to 2025 and awarded Two Michelin Stars to, Pikaia sets a global benchmark for luxury, adventure, and sustainability.

M/Y Vision Pikaia is Pikaia Lodge’s private yacht, making us the only hotel in the Galapagos to offer a dedicated yacht with cabins exclusively for guest explorations. This unique model allows guests to enjoy guided marine adventures and snorkeling in protected sites during the day, then return each evening to the comfort, gastronomy, and privacy of the lodge—combining the freedom of yachting with the ease of a luxury land-based stay.
