눉Booked a tour via the hotel and the guide never showed up, breakfast should last a bit longer to allow people booking an early tour to get some food when they come back
눇Good breakfast, hotel garden, pool from which you can see howler and spider monkeys jumping from one tree to another, nice view on the river, relaxing atmosphere

눉Nothing to say
눇I really enjoyed the view from the bungalow... the river and the village of Tortuguero. The quality of the equipment is good, and the room is clean. Nice staff and helpful one. I enjoyed my stay there.

“Our tour of Costa Rica”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with older children
- • Family Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Initially that you had to get a boat to visit the village and pay for it, but then getting the boat especially at night was great and worth the extra expense.
눇We loved the location, monkeys out the back! Swimming pool was great and the best breakfast in all of our stays around Costa Rica.

눉I would have liked to know in advance that boat transportation out of Tortuguero required us to leave in the morning because of low water conditions on the river. I would have stayed an additional day.
눇The food was great. The overall ambience was awesome.

“Tortuguero's La Baula Lodge”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Standard Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉The boat taxi ride was expensive to and from town ($3 per person each way). The food at the lodge was very expensive ($15 per person for lunch).
눇Main desk worker was very helpful with planning day trips and transportation to and from Tortuguero. Good happy hour. Quiet, nature-filled grounds. Refreshing swimming pool.

“OK for one night”

눉The decor of the bedrooms, lots of old teddy bears... Breakfast was very limited.
눇The manicured gardens are definitely the highlight of this B&B. Breakfast is served outdoors overlooking the hills surrounding Alajuela/San Jose.

“Great room with riverview, nice pool and garden.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Standard Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉We had some discommunication about the buffet diner that the hotel was serving. At our arrival we were told that there was an buffet diner every night. When we wanted to have diner at the hotel, they told us there was only a buffet when there were (reservations for) 30 people or more. We didn't want the food that was on the menu that night because there was not/ not much off a choice. So we had to take a watertaxi to the village back again (we just came from the village). The staff was so friendly and helpfull, they called a taxi end paid for it, because of the discommunication.
눇The rooms are really nice and the pool is great. Every day the staff cleaned our room and they were very friendly. In de garden of the hotel we saw a couple of monkeys, sloths and several chameleons and lizards. Deffinetly recommand this hotel to my friends.

“I would go again, but I would go prepared with a jar of peanut butter and a box of crackers.”

눉No one goes to Costa Rica for the cuisine. But the food here is uninspired and expensive. The cost is understandable as most things have to be shipped there by boat. But most things were overcooked.
눇The mattress was pretty bad, but the room was very clean and there was a good fan. Security seemed to be good also. The gardens and swimming pool were lovely. the staff was very helpful. This lodge is not near the village and requires a $2-3 water taxi trip to town. Which means if you want to avoid the high price of the meals, you have to go to town and experiment over there. Or go to one of the "grocery" stores and fix a picnic to take to the beach.
