Hostels in Tortuguero

Rupert United Kingdom

The hostel is exceptional....... You have a small but amazing access to a restaurant in the grounds of the hostel and the food is well priced and the food amazing. You have a cool kitchen and area to hang out with other travellers, the beach is 100m away and there a football field adjoining the hostel so you can engage with locals playing football or just to run around.

This place is truly paradise! An authentic eco-lodge run by a lovely local family. This lodge is located in San Francisco which is a neighboring village, a short 5-10 minute boat ride from the main village of Tortuguero. You can take a private boat taxi or catch the local boat service for very cheap. I truly enjoyed staying in San Francisco rather than Tortuguero. The village is much more local, with very few tourists, offering a slower and more authentic local experience. Geraldo, Ana Rita, and Victor made me feel like family during my entire stay. Geraldo was a guide in this area for over 40 years and has so many lovely stories to share about his life here. Ana Rita is the master administrator and lovely matriarch of the family that can help you with booking any tours, boat transfers, or services that you require during your stay. Victor has great energy and prepared beautiful meals for me daily which were healthy, filling, and varied from day to day. I had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful lodge for 5 nights. Most people only stay in the area for 2-3 nights but I definitely recommend extending your stay because the local area and lifestyle has so much to offer. During my stay, my room was cleaned daily and the sheets were changed every other day which was a lovely addition I wasn't expecting. Just from the property, I was able to see a variety of different wildlife passing through such as toucans, tiger herons, and a variety of other birds and frogs. I couldn't have asked for a more amazing and tranquil experience. I hope to return once more and spend another week with this lovely family in the future.

This hotel is the best option in town. I can’t believe is almost 7 thousand colones with a great location, good breakfast and all the attention from doña Marina. You will feel at home in the very heart of Tortuguero. This place will be always my first option!

The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. She recommended hikes we could do, local guides, and where to eat or drink. She was very helpful and nice throughout the stay.
