GermanyA very well organised tour and overnight stay; everything went to plan from pick-up in San Jose to drop-off at the Rio Danta Restaurant at Guapiles, where we had a great breakfast on the way out and lunch on the way back. The Mawamba lodge location between the beach and canal is beautiful, it's all calm and peaceful; the pool area, restaurant and facilities are really nice; the Superior Room was very spacious and comfortable; the tours of Tortuguero village, the beach and the canals were wonderful, likewise the Mawamba park butterfly and frog gardens; all the staff were helpful and informative all of the time and made a special effort for my wife’s birthday - thank you, this was a great experience and we loved-it!
United KingdomExcellent location very close to the village. My room was very clean and spacious, on the side of the property close to the ocean. Beautiful gardens and grounds. Excellent guide and kind staff. Food was good too (without being amazing, but it’s not the reason why I went there!). Good wifi.
FranceMawamba Lodge is amazing! Everything is well organized. Ana Maria, our tour guide for 3 days, is very knowledgable, qualified and a lovely woman. We’ve seen a lot of animals. We had a really pleased stay! Thanks people of Grupo Mawamba (Mauricio) for giving us the pura vida vibes.
NetherlandsThe location was very nice, beautiful scenery, no cars, no noise but the wildlife. The food and staff were great. Our tour guide was very informative
