Portuguese National Park is a wonder.

Portuguese National Park is a wonder. You can't get there by Car, there are no roads. Only by boat 1 hr up river or by plane. You are in the jungle with so many animals. I recommend staying in a lodge away from town, in the secondary forest area. Take a canal boat tour and enjoy the wild life. This is a must see in Costa Rica

I absolutely loved Tortuguero and wish my spanish was better, however, it was easy to do everything with English--I was amazed at how well everyone spoke it! My favorite tour was the early morning canoe tour I booked with Green Tours. It was so peaceful and my guide, Brandon, was excellent! There are some really good restaurants/bars that are reasonably priced. Overall, it was a good time and I'm really happy with how everything turned out. I recommend booking a place to stay ahead of time, as well as the boat ride and return. Book tours once you get to the village. All the local companies are about the same price and a great value! I would 100% love to come back with friends or a partner someday. PURA VIDA!

We arrived by accident on the day of TortuFest, when there was a carnival in the streets, lots of performers and lots of fun: 1.11., highly recommended. It's good to take a morning canoe tour — even if it's raining the whole time you get to see a lot and it's a nice experience — walk through the jaguar trail, and we've seen a bunch of animals on the night walk as well (including a pooping sloth). El Patio is a great restaurant for carribean food, but the little soda right at the docks was also quite nice.

We were not originally going to stop in Tortuguero during our short stay in CR, but are so glad we did! It's not easy to get there, but the journey was most definitely part of the fun! We took a private boat from La Pavona (which cost the same as the public boat but offered to take us all the way to our hotel instead of the main Tortuguero dock). On our first night, we booked a turtle nesting tour from 8-10 pm and watched a momma turtle lay her eggs on the beach. It was incredible. We chose to eat at our hotel across the water instead of in town. It was easier that way. Besides the turtle nesting tour, we also took a hike in the national park with our children. There are other tours we could have taken, but we were satisfied with just watching the wildlife (monkeys) play at our hotel pool. On our boat trip back to La Pavona was memorable -- in that we saw many crocodiles along the river.

I really liked the town, which was tiny. We did eat there a couple of times and both times the food was great. I could happily have spent more time exploring the nature, and just chilling at our hotel.

The area is just beautiful. The nature is unique.

The area is just beautiful. The nature is unique. Some take aways: 1 ) use private tours to see turtles, 2) take the “periferica local transportation to commute from tortuguero town to San Francisco ($3), 3) eat at El Patio downtown, 4) take tour to the canals 5) bring good mosquito repellent, 5) bring light rain ciat and rubber boats, 6) bring dark clothing to see the turtles ( non black or dark colirs are allowed)

What a beautiful spot. The whole hostel area is spacious, green, loads of communal hang out areas, hammocks, day beds, massive communal kitchen. This was our favourite place in all of Costa Rica! Their in-house tours are fantastic and the staff is so polite, helpful and service goes beyond your expectations. Thank you!

Colourful and small with only 8 rooms so it was not noisy. Very clean and close to the town and the national park. AC was great. Information provided beforehand by hotel was very helpful in getting to Tortuguero from La Pavona, where you need to park your vehicle and get a boat. Minimise the luggage you need to carry.

The staff was very welcoming and warm. The receptionist was extremely helpful: he helped us book all of our activities. The guided tours offered by this hotel are amazing. Celimo, our guide, was extraordinary!!! He deeply knows the animals of Costa Rica.

the gardens are nicely kept and being a bit away from Tortuguero village, it has a quiet stretch of beach. You can see some birds and wildlife from the garden itself. The pool looks nice, though gets busy at times.
