    The town is ok - plenty of eateries. The accommodation at Cabinas Sports Fishing was wonderful! The early morning boat trip was very enjoyable, as was the Jaguar trail in the National Park. The Budda Cafe has a nice vibe and good food. We were there in April so missed the turtle nesting season but still very much worth a visit!

    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,

    What a beautiful place! We absolutely loved our stay at Mawamba Lodge! The property is beautiful and right on the beach where we were able to see the baby turtles hatching! The facilities were wonderful and all the staff members were very helpful. A short boat ride away from the town but I preferred this as we only really needed to see the town for a few short hours and then we preferred to stay on the property and enjoy the beach. We also did a night hike through the hotel that was amazing and one of the highlights of our trip!

    The place is a little off of the city center, so it's quiet and chill. Anyways, there's a supermarket just around the corner and everything in Tortuguero is walkable in 10 minutes anyways. The national park entrance is just around the corner as well. The owners, Oscar and Karin are so welcoming. They even prepared a coconut for me to drink at my arrival. The room was very clean and spacious, with a good working brand new aircon and a lot of space to put your clothes. The common arena in the backyard is very cozy.

    The receptionist Ingrid was super helpful, friendly and an asset to the hotel. I took the kayak and turtle nesting tours from the hotel and both guides were knowledgeable, professional and I enjoyed them a lot. There were plenty of birds around the hotel and you can walk to everything. For its value, the room had a nice bathroom, without a Costa Rican 'suicide' shower! Although no AC, the fan is powerful enough. Overall a highly recommended simple little beachfront place for your stay in Tortuguero.

    The location could not be better! This hotel has its own boat ramp so when we arrived and departed we could do it right from the hotel. It is also right in town, so it was easy and fun to walk to restaurants. The staff members were friendly and helpful (and patient with our limited Spanish). We had a problem with our shower and they worked quickly to find a solution. They were exceedingly helpful with arranging and advising us about activities and transportation.

    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.

    Best hostel to stay in Tortuguero! I will definitely stay at the same place if I go back to Tortuguero. Mariana took really good care of us, she cooked us a beautiful, delicious breakfast every morning. The rooms have lockers, the beds are clean and comfortable. The kitchen is quite good too. We felt safe there, the location is great, 30 seconds walk from a grocery store. There are two nice areas outside to chill in the shade.

    Casa Marbella is a really nice place to stay in Tortuguero, calm and right on the main road of the town, with a terrace towards the river overseeing the entry to the national park. The breakfast was good. The Staff is very welcoming and helping to make our stay very much enjoyable. Also the tours we booked with Marbella were really nice and we enjoyed it. We would stay here again.

    On the beach front in the centre of Tortuguero. The hotel had a nice reception area, with sofas and facilities to make hot drinks throughout the day. We weren't offered a buffet breakfast (as mentioned in other reviews) but the options offered were good. Nice pool area surrounded by a tropical garden. We saw crocodiles and herring on the boat ride to Tortuguero.

    Amazing place, 3 min from the center of the village, right on the Tortuguero beach, the hostel consists of a collection of rooms around a common garden with common facilities (social area, common kitchen, play zone) in a tropical rainforest style. Absolutely perfect to experience the rainforest atmosphere and visit Tortuguero.

    It was right in front of the beach. The location is ok, not in the center but then again the village is not big either so you can get from the center to the hotel in 5-10 min tops.
