We had two seperate rooms, beds were super comfortable, shower was great (pressure and hot), beautiful place. Friendly staff, good breakfast, good food, huge bookcase to exchange or pick up books. Great house dogs and a cat! We were picked up from the shuttle by boat and also dropped off. All in all a great stay! And beautiful sunrise from the docks, also good time to go kayaking!

amazing location and staff. the staff helped us out when we arrived at 3:00 am in the morning due to a delay. also they gave great tips about exploring the area and arranged everything for us. the place itself is beautifull and very well maintaned. rooms are very spacious and nice.

Awesome bungalow and very friendly and helpful staff

everyone was super friendly. The food was delicious! it was just an amazing experience for us.

We loved our stay at the Tortugal. From the immediate boat pick-up through our last breakfast, Angela and the rest of the staff were attentive, friendly, and helpful with suggestions to make our trip more enjoyable. Truly loved the waterfront location overlooking the boats and the clean river provides a refreshing break after a day of exploring. The food is delicious and fairly priced in the onsite restaurant, and you can also enjoy a fresh seafood meal across the river at the "Viajero" prior to taking the boat to the property (the hotel parking is in the restaurant's lot; the ceviche and seafood platter pictured are from the restaurant). The room we had (Arboles 1) was amazing, you felt like you had your own jungle hut. It was tidy, cool, and the beds were very comfortable. Would certainly recommend this property to anyone visiting Tortugal.

Food and drink at the hotel is excellent, served with a smile and a chat. The restaurant overlooks the river so the view at meal times is fantastic. We really enjoyed being able to take a kayak down the river.

Staff was friendly and warm. The place was beautiful and relaxing. Love that the whole restaurant seemed more like not so formal, it was very home like if that makes sense.

Balcony and hammock at the bungalow. View of the water, peaceful, kayaks.

The location is very nice. it caters to a wide variety of people from all over.

the cabin was awesome and the staff were great and the food was awesome.

In the Rio Dulce river near a 16th century castle the Tortugal Boutique River Lodge peninsula is bathed by almost constant on shore breezes providing a cool and refreshing place.
This special location upriver from the village and bridge gives the pleasure of clean water for swimming in the deliciously reviving Rio Dulce.
A nicely located diving platform leads to the floating sun deck thoughtfully furnished with comfortable loungers providing the ideal place to watch river traffic going by.
Fiber optic wifi throughout. Free vehicle parking and pickup at parking lot or municipal dock. Use of our kayaks, water refills no extra charge. Library, homemade food, dog to pet.
All rooms have views of either the river or the jungle. All rooms except El Ranchito have a private bathroom. Certain units have a seating area where you can relax. Rooms are kept cool with overhead fans and thick native roofs.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.
