Lock in a great price for Evergreen Lodge – rated 8.3 by recent guests!

to get started.

Lovely hotel in the heart of the national park. Fantastic food and plenty of it. The guides are very knowledgeable and it’s worth going on the tours.

Justine, United Kingdom

The abundance of wildlife just walking around the grounds. Always have your camera ready

Danny, United Kingdom

Amazing wildlife birds etc. Boat ride and walk was amazing all three types of monkeys in abundance

George, United Kingdom

The location and some of the activities were wonderful if you like nature. Not for everybody though... because the hotel is quite isolated and the small town nearby (Tortuguero) does not seem to be as safe as you would like...

Juan, Spain

Very remote beautiful location. Our guide, Manny, was very friendly and knowledgeable. Unique boat rides down jungle rivers to see birds, monkeys, turtles, spiders, caimans, and even a sloth. Food was very good. Pool was clean and relaxing. Ocean was beautiful but not the correct time for turtle nesting. Monkeys visited daily.

Sprinkledog, United States of America

Fantastic view of the Pacific Ocean, monkeys, sloths, iguanas at the property. Pool with very few people. Large room with kitchen. Balcony with rocking chairs and view!

Andras, Switzerland

Location, friendly, well organised - a pleasure to have a jungle experience like this

Family, Belgium

I've had to think very clearly on giving a fair review of this property. The location is excellent and the perfect way to experience and explore the rain forest. The tours included in the package were well organised and our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. The negative side is that you are literally in the middle of a rain forest and eat at the hotel restaurant that they allocate to you (1/3). Our room no 29 & 30 were very noisy and one night we had to ask reception desk to request a group of vocal teenagers move as we couldn't sleep .....they managed to drown out the amazing animal sounds and rain falling on your tin roof. This was the most expensive hotel on our two week tour and I am divided on if it was money well spent but the experience and access to the national park was exceptional.

They should take care of details a bit more. We asked for towels 3 times but they did not hae available, they made you pay some activities in cash only... Some service details that are not in line with what you pay, around 335 USD per nigh.

From what’s shown in the photos doesn’t exactly match the rooms you will receive. We thought we were going to stay in a single bungalow but instead we received a unit with two shared walls and hardly any privacy. When asked about it we were told three different things. Some rooms had fresh flowers, ours did not. Our room generally felt like we were staying at 6th grade camp. No tv, no coffee machine, no mini fridge to keep your water cool. nothing to do at night unless you wanted to hang out in the pool in the rain. “Free WiFi” only works in a couple common areas (does not work in your room and when it does work it’s typically slower than the 3G network. Other than our guide and the food, our stay was just “eh”.
Very remote beautiful location. Our guide, Manny, was very friendly and knowledgeable. Unique boat rides down jungle rivers to see birds, monkeys, turtles, spiders, caimans, and even a sloth.

Initially we booked 2 nights / 3 days package, since we heard such good things about this place. So, after our flight from Cuba was cancelled twice, we decided to give up another part of our trip and go to Tortuguero even if it was for one night. The first experience, when we were picked up from our hotel was good, but after been dropped at La Pavona to wait for tour bout, our feeling was of refugees, carrying their own suitcases to the boats in the mud, with big disorder and lots of people around. The first "tour" was to the village of Tortuguero. We harried to the peer at the designated time, just to wait 20 minutes to the boat to pick us up. I don't know why they call it a "tour" and not a "drop off". We expected a guided tour, but actually after arrival to the village, we were taken to the beach, the guide said few words (one minute tops) and let us wonder around for one and a half hour. Not much to do in the village if you're not into buying souvenirs and don't want to eat (we were just after having lunch). When we returned we experienced the maintenance problems in our two rooms. In both there were no hot water in the shower and in one the toilet were clogged. There is no way to call the reception, and our rooms were at the far end of the lodge. So I walked there to report our problems and was told that it will take at least an hour to fix, since there is no maintenance personnel on site and they need to bring him with a boat. Since we had to go for dinner and then to the night turtle tour, we didn't have the chance to shower. The turtle egg laying tour was a nice experience, not something you see everyday. But I think the "2 hours tour" (plus being ready at the peer 30 minutes befor) was not planned correctly. Upon arrival, we waited in the shelter for over an hour while the spotters were looking for turtles (why can't they do it while we are on the way?).
