The staff was incredibly friendly. The tours available were fun, informative, and worth it! The staff was very helpful in helping us schedule our tours. Definitely recommend. A quick note. Transportation by boat is very difficult after hours. While the staff was able to connect us with a private transfer, it took alot of communication. ##### Jason Christian Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### valerie 6 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful place, AMAZING food (gourmet!

Very good service in general, even going there and coming back was a good experience. Good food at readonable prices. Only bad thing is that tours at the hotel are crazy expensive. ##### Henrik Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maneera 10 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful property with amazing, large rooms. Great patio with chairs and a swing bed. Large bathroom with a great shower, water pressure and hot water! Property was amazing with lots of trails and animals. Only downside was the transportation option offered by the lodge itself was very limited - they should offer more boat transfers from the mainland. And install blackout curtains in the rooms - made it impossible to nap in the afternoons! ##### Maneera Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ethan 7 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### We Loved It and Hope to Return Beautiful facility and wonderful staff who are so friendly and helpful. The food is excellent and plentiful. We only did two activities (extra charge) but both guides were outstanding. We highly recommend Tortuga Lodge. ##### Ethan Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 27 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Tortuga lodge was incredible if you like seeing Iguanas walking around, howler monkeys in the trees sharing their breakfast with their babies, and Toucans and Macaws flying overhead. Zulay at reception was fantastic! She always had a smile on her face and was so incredibly helpful while solving some problems for us. Enrique and all of the wait/bar/restaurant staff were thoughtful enough to remember our names.Amazing service and amazing resort. We highly recommend the night tour on the property if you like creepy crawly critters. Just an amazing experience for our family. ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Man Wah 29 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful grounds with private trail. Room has good amenities and food choices/service was excellent. It’s 10min boat ride to town so it’s a bit inconvenient (trade off is super quiet hotel) and gets costly for taxi boat ($8pp one way). There was construction above our room (#15) so we couldn’t take a nap or sleep in! Otherwise it’s a superb hotel and we would absolutely come back! ##### Man Wah Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andre 14 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed in three locations/hotels in CR.

Wish we had stayed longer. Thank you Tortuga for a wonderful experience.

All the extras cost a bomb though so the final bill is huge. For example - a 5 minute shuttle on a boat was charged at over 30 dollars. That is a lot. Great place to stay for 2 days but not plenty to do beyond that. Good but felt a bit too much like a machine. ##### Adam Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Serena 24 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fabulous! This lodge is hands down one of the best places I’ve ever stayed in all my years of travel. From the moment I arrived, the staff was friendly and incredibly helpful. The pickup from the small airport was seamless and really eased the anxiety of arriving in a new, unfamiliar place. The pool was a highlight, with a perfect temperature and a unique design that overlooks the water—truly stunning. My room had tasteful, colorful decor and featured some fun outdoor furniture, giving it a lively, tropical vibe. It was also impeccably clean, which can be challenging in a tropical environment, but the staff does an excellent job maintaining it. Another thoughtful touch was the umbrellas provided in each room, a lifesaver in a place where it rains so often. Fun benefit - the sound of howler monkeys in the mornings made the experience quite special. The room was also incredibly quiet, ensuring I had great sleep each night. Getting into town was super easy with the water taxi service. All in all, I had an amazing stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone! ##### Serena Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jane 18 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fabulous stay at Tortuga Lodge We loved everything about our stay at Tortuga Lodge. If you're looking for a place that provides both luxury and adventure, this is it. I never imagined I would enjoy a 6:00 am boat ride in the pouring rain on Rio Tortuguero, but since I was comfortably ensconced in my hotel provided poncho, I could fully appreciate the bounties of nature in all of its glory. The abundance of wildlife, skillfully pointed out by our wonderful hawk-eyes guide, Luis, truly made this a unique and special adventure. The highlight of our visit was the 10:00 pm trip to the Caribbean side to see greenback turtles nesting. No photos allowed or necessary. This incredible experience seeing turtles emerge from the water and watching them dig a hole with their flippers and lay their eggs is seared in my memory. While I know our guide Luis had experienced this thousands of times before, his enthusiasm for each new wonder of nature for us made each sighting all the more special. The hotel staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. Kudos to the chef for our wonderful meals. All in all, we had a fabulous three days at Tortuga Lodge and hope to return again soon! ##### Jane Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helen 15 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel location is beautiful, although we didn't realise it couldn't be accessed by road, so please note that if you have a car you have to drive to one of the areas where you can get the boat taxis and leave your car behind. This, however, was a great way to get to the hotel. We had a room with a large balcony and lovely view, and our private tour the next day of the national park, with Elvis, was outstanding and definitely worth the money (although not cheap!). We saw so much from the water and would recommend it to anyone. There isn't anything to do at night, and dinner is from 6 - 8.30pm, but as most tours start from 6am this wasn't a problem as going to bed early is recommended. Beautiful, quiet location, with a free transfer to the local town, although only an hour is needed there as it is just a street with restaurants and shops. The beach isn't anything to write home about, as it is black sandy strewn with wood, so not somewhere nice to sit, but it is worth catching the free boat across the river to have a look at it, and this is also where the air strip is for the plane if you are arriving from San Jose this way. The staff were lovely, the pool is a lovely added bonus and we enjoyed a couple of hours by it and swam in it too. I would highly recommend this hotel if staying in Tortoguero National Park, which is a must if visiting Costa Rica. ##### Helen Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Wedding Hotels in Cala d'Or](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cala-DOr-Hotels-Wedding-Hotel.0-0-d6050485-tWeddingHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Restaurant Balm Meggen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Meggen-Hotels-Hotel-Restaurant-Balm-Meggen.h1339976.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Sound - White Katikies](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santorini-Hotels-Sea-Sound-White-Katikies.h3600392.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Knottingley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Knottingley-Hotels.d6023844.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Sloop Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monmouth-Hotels-The-Sloop-Inn.h39617462.Hotel-Information) > > [Prague Centre Plaza](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prague-Hotels-Prague-Centre-Plaza.h1544128.Hotel-Information) > > [Winery Hotels in Garden Route](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Garden-Route-Hotels-Winery-Hotels.0-0-d6051521-tWineryHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Aparthotels Alcúdia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alcudia-Apart-Hotels.d182271-aaApartHotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Romance Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marmaris-Hotels-Romance-Beach-Hotel.h1860708.Hotel-Information) > > [The Roker Hotel, BW Premier Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Roker-Hotel.h992632.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartments Pisa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pisa-Apartments.d2877-aaApartments.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Residence Yasmina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agadir-Hotels-Residence-Yasmina.h4521391.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in San Francisco](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Francisco-Hotels.d178305.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sirena Sunrise](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Sirena-Sunrise.h14732226.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Aguas Claras Member of the Cayuga Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Viejo-De-Talamanca-Hotels-Hotel-Aguas-Claras.h19782910.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartments Lindos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lindos-Apartments.d6052018-aaApartments.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Kotli](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kotli-Hotels.d708971750629158912.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [easyJet Paisley (GLA) to St. Peter (JER) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/easyjet-from-glasgow-intl-to-jersey/u2/gla/jer) > > [easyJet Gatwick (LGW) to St. Peter (JER) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/easyjet-from-gatwick-to-jersey/u2/lgw/jer) > > [Flights from Paris (CDG) to Dublin (DUB)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cdg/dub/paris-to-dublin) > > [Jet2 Barcelona (BCN) to Manchester (MAN) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/jet2-from-barcelona-intl-to-manchester/ls/bcn/man) > > [Spirit Airlines](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Spirit-Airlines-Flights.cNK.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Activities > [Things to do in Marlow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Marlow.d5638.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Al Hoceima Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Al-Hoceima.d322.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Zion National Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Zion-National-Park-Utah.d184036.Attraction) > > [Chefchaouen Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chefchaouen.d6125502.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Llangeitho](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llangeitho.dx3000419941) > > [Visit Tregastel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tregastel.dx6023432) > > [Visit Sesimbra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sesimbra.dx11340)
