    What a gem.

    What a gem. We had three nights here but in hindsight could have done two (a lot of people just do one). Two nights gives you a chance to soak up the atmosphere and explore the village from end to end. It was an experience getting there - a 1hr boat trip (which can be longer depending on the water levels). On arrival we were surprised at the number of bars and restaurants - a huge variety. Many on the waterfront and how wonderful to have no cars. Our hotel met us at the wharf and transferred our luggage. The hotels are right amongst the locals houses - so you really get to know the village and can hear all the 'goings on'. Just walking around you see the houses, some of the challenges living there, the flora and fauna. We did a motor boat tour at 9am - would recommend doing this at 6am as the forest wakes up. Its amazing on the water - seeking the birds close up, camen, monkeys and iguanas. You will see more animals on a tour of the forest but its still worth the experience. The motor boat tour includes national park entry - but I would recommend using a guide in the park as despite what you think its really hard to spot animals without the 'experienced eye'; and of course its their livelihood. I also did a night tour - there were a lot of other night tours - we walked along the route to the airport so it didn't feel super secluded - but we did see an armadillo, spiders, a snake, sloth and an iguana. Just goes to show nature is all around us - but again I would never have seen it without the experienced guide. Overall its quite an experience and would suggest Tortuguera is a 'must have' on a Costa Rica itinerary.

    Loved the fact that the boat dropped us off at the hotel's dock and picked us up here as well. Checkin was a breeze but make sure you have the cash to pay for the room and any tours. Canoe/boat tours, day hikes, night walks were arranged by the hotel in advance for very nominal rates. The tours start right at the hotel and hence very convenient. The hotel sits on the banks of the river and the views are lovely especially during dusk and dawn. We experienced torrential rain one afternoon and during the night. The rain in the afternoon did not last long. The canals are accessible by boat, canoe and kayaks. Tortuguero is laid back and a nice place to wind down and experience time float by. Great place to see Great Green Macaws fly by during dawn and dusk. We also saw the last of the turtle hatchings make their way to the sea. Wonderful sight to experience. The town and beach are easily accessible. The canals are teeming in wildlife. We saw green basilisks, iguanas, jacanas, toucans, caimans, herons and monkeys (howler, spider and capuchin). On the night walk we saw frogs (Savage's bullfrog, red-eyed tree frog, some snakes, and a sloth at close range. The hotel staff were nice. The free breakfast was an added bonus. Laundry service was available for a fee. The town was easily accessible by foot. Local food at the sodas was fulfilling. Overall a wonderful experience!

    It was like going to the Amazon River and experiencing wildlife and diversity. It was a multi cultural place with a taste of how locals villagers live , ocean access, river access and the best part is watching conservation of turtles. Turtle night tour is a must do!!?

    Town was better than pictured.

    Town was better than pictured. Walking to everything is easy. Favorite restaurants were Miss Miriams next to the football field and Budda Cafe overlooking the river. Went on three turtle tours and the canoe tour. All great. Used Tuanis Tours for 2 turtle and canoe and Leonardo for private turtle tour. Grocery store carries beer and liquor at reasonable prices.

    The Tortuguero area is considerably different from the rest...

    The Tortuguero area is considerably different from the rest of Costa Rica. Isolated from land transport, all access is done either by boat or plane. Opt for the boat if you can. It's cheap (around 8000 colones round trip from La Pavona), and despite being on a public transport you'll have a tour experience. The trip can take up to 1,5 hours, with safety conditions guarateed (life vests) and you'll be winding through the florest canals until you reach the Tortuguero sandbar. much like running down the Amazonas, The village is very small but with a great ambient of friendly people (general fact in all CR) with plenty of options for food/drinks, accomodations. Tortuguero life runs around sightseeing (National Park, turtle tours, and cannoeing in the canals). At night you'll have plenty of options for sunset and dinning. You're in a protected area for marine turtles and the mindset is all around that. Forget about bathing in the river or the beach, as one it's inhabited by crocodiles and the other with bull sharks,

    Enjoyed the boat ride into Tortuguero from the docks at La Pavlona. Boat driver stopped to show us a crocodile in the water. The town of Tortuguero is interesting and its people welcoming. It is basically a main walkway just inset but along the water backed by a small community with a subdued caribbean vibe. We were very comfortable there. We wanted to go on a canoe tour and a guided tour of the rainforest but hadn't booked anything. There is a tour desk at the dock we were let off on but didn't give us specific info on tours. we reached out to Tuanis Tours and Jewwy our guide came right to us at our hotel and arranged both tours for us. He was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our canoe trip immensely. Saw alligators, herons, snakebirds, monkeys, bats, iguana. The same afternoon, another Tuanis guide took us through the rainforest and spotted poisonous dart frog, a sloth, several types of Jesus Christ lizards, gorgeous plants and flowers. He was amazing. The restaurants we ate at were all good food and value. We ate at El Patio twice. Standout was Taylor's Place. While more expensive than the others, this restaurant is truly different. the evening was absolutely enchanting, food and wine better than some 5 star restaurants in N. America. I really wanted to go but when i called for reservation they said their machines were down and could only accept cash. We had forgotton there is no working ATM in Tortuguero. Fortunately, there is a place where you can get some cash (for a fee) in a shop across from Grocery store. I was a happy girl. You don't need much while you are here. I was pretty embarrased to take heavy luggage with me on the boat to Tortuguero.

    What a Traditional, beautiful Costa Rican stay. we really enjoyed the whole experience of staying at Tortuguero Lodge from the Hotels boat transfer in, to the delicious food which was literally waiting for us on arrival. The hotel arranged two trips for us, the twilight walk through their own trail which was stunning and we saw snakes, frogs and spiders. Then also a morning boat tour around the national park where we saw sloths, monkeys and caiman. The hotel itself is beautiful and kept ver clean all in all I would highly recommend!

    Gloria and her husband were so lovely people, they made our stay very special. Both were very helpful giving us advice on what to do during our stay. Gloria helped us getting to Tortuguero and waited with us at the boat station. Glorias husband even drove us to the entrance of the Cerro National park with the boat. And the food WOW! the breakfast and the dinner were so good authentic costarican food. In addition we got a fresh coconut from the garden to drink. I totally would stay again at Gloria’s place and can only recommend it!

    La Baula Lodge is a wonderful place to stay. The accommodations are simple but nice. The setting is gorgeous. Beautiful scenery, well-maintained gardens, and lots of wildlife (monkeys, sloths, toucans, iguanas, etc.). The pool was a big hit with our family. We loved reaching the place by boat, and taking a boat taxi to the nearby small village. The staff was very helpful. The meals at the hotel were fine - not a huge amount a variety, but what was served was good.

    the location was perfect: to the left, a short walk to the beach, to the right one block, the center of town… and kids enjoying soccer in front each night. There are lower priced hostel-type accommodations and higher priced private rooms and everyone enjoys the pool and covered dining/relaxing area. The Roots tours were perfect, filling our heads with unlimited knowledge. Relaxing and enjoyable place to stay during your Tortuguero visit.

    Carlos was a truly amazing host, paying attention to the small details (offering to clean everyday, helping us to book activities and transport in and out of Tortuguero, showing us where to find animals, placing towel in front of the door to stop rain coming in during the night, even cleaning our dirty boots..! ) truly incredible to experience village life in Tortuguero. Also it is right next to the entrance of the national park.

    Kitchens in the rooms were well set up for cooking. They even provided tea, coffee, sugar, s&P and oil. Good location to walk to the North (non National Park side) and this is where we did a night walk and saw a lot of wildlife. They had someone meet us in LaPavona and take us all the way to the hotel and help us with booking tours, so that was a nice touch.

    We stayed here to experience nature. The lodge fully lived up to that, with excellent reasonable priced tours and excellent guides. Recommend the simple grounds tour for wildlife viewing. Lodge has great facilities, nice pool, and is kept very well. Meals are a bit expensive, but everything in Costa Rica is a bit expensive for what you get.

    Great location and great view. The hotel also had cold AC which was imperative for August. I think the hotel was a bit nicer than what pictures show. This is a no frills hotel, what you see is what you get. The bed was firm, but decently comfortable. There is a cute cafe on the first floor that had good coffee and pastries.
