Chinitas Eco Lodge is a wonderful place to stay. It is in a place called San Francisco which is a boat ride away from Tortugero. We were so happy to stay in such a wonderful quiet place. The garden, overlooking the canals, were stunning. The rooms were quite basic but clean. There are a few nice places to eat within walking distance including a lovely bar overlooking the canals. The 'Bus/boat stop' for Tortugera is right next to the property. The Nature Reserve is a few minutes walk away (or a boat drive into Tortugero). The owners are wonderful - so helpful. We met Owen who did a tour of the canals for us - and provided great knowledge of the birds and wildlife and helped us go on a night reserve walk and a Nature Reserve walk. It is such a stunning place to stay and definitely one of the highlights of our trip. The owners arranged a boat trip to Moins Limon which we would also recommend.

Location: Away from the hubbub of Tortuguero yet the quay for the public water bus there is outside the front gate. Very attentive and helpful staff, very knowledgeable on wildlife. Relaxed stay among friendly local community.

The garden and place to eat at the river is magnificent. The owners are very helpful. Lovely little village with good soda.

If you want to stay away from touristic areas this is the best place to stay. For us this was the best place in Tortuguero to stay. Close to local town (San Fancisco) and quiet relaxing amosphere. Would really recommend it! The view at breakfast is also very nice, with the sunrise. There are a few restaurants around but you can also order pizza if you don’t want to leave the place (just ask Rita). Easy to walk to cerro tortuguero (for free! no nood to pay any tour/tickets.. you can perfectly do it on your own). Also the hammock’s were a plus!

A simple B&b with no frills but good value for money. Very pretty setting directly on the river so easy access to local waterbus with transfers to La Pavona and Tortugero village.Very welcoming owners and friendly local community. Excellent freelance guide. Easy access to simple sodas in the village of San Francisco. A good insight into the local Carribean way of life.

The hotel is in a peaceful setting right on the river a very short boat ride from Tortuguero airport. Our room was very clean, spacious with AC. A few restaurants were a couple of minutes walk away (generous portions of fresh food at Lau’s place) The staff here are wonderful people. Owen arranged our trips and looked after us extremely well, making great suggestions. Our plane was delayed because of the weather and they very kindly allowed us a late check out and were very helpful with communications. It is a short walk from the hotel to Cerro and a five minute boat ride to Tortuguero town.

Its more remote compared to tortuguero itself but amazing to stay for 2 days. It is not as crowded as Tortuguero is. And Owen (my guide for the day) was a great guide with really good knowledge and a high interest in animal life and nature

Awesome location, much better than the touristic village Tortuguero. Very peaceful, garden full of birds, breakfast with a view of the river. Easy to catch the public boat to Tortuguero. Private tour with a boat early in the morning into the national park. Owners are super friendly, sweet and helpful.

Beautiful location. Looking out into the water was really nice. Owen, the guide who took us around was fantastic. He knew the area well.
