The hosts, Oscar and Karen, were superbly welcoming and friendly. Our favourite stay in all of Costa Rica! Quiet clean rooms with comfortable beds, individual A/C in our room, private bathroom and good shower. Safe and private. Well-equipped kitchen and a delightful covered patio to relax. We spotted a variety of birds, iguana, and a far off monkey from there. Easy walk to stores, restaurants, the boat dock, and the Tortuguero National Park. Oscar has his on boat with a quiet trolling motor, and he gave us an early morning boat tour of the National Park canals. He’s wonderful guide at spotting wildlife- many birds, spider monkeys, caiman, lizards.

    This is a hostel and we had private room with ensuite. It's basic, as expected. You can use a well equipped kitchen, great if you are on a budget. It's right in Tortuguero close to many restaurants and mini market. There's a garden to relax in and a veranda with hammock. Very quiet at night. You can book tours which were great, we did canals in canoe, day walk and night walk (highlight). You can do self guided walk too either in the park or just along a path from the village to the airstrip.

    Nestled at the end of the town San Francisco, Chinitas lodge is a fantastic place to stay if you like local, quiet environment with animals at your doorstep. We were able to see over 5 Toucans just by walking through the local town, and plenty of other birds, frogs and mammals. It is a taxi boat to tortuguero itself (10 minutes) but the local feel and lovely hostsin Chinitas lodge made it worth the stay. You can also book all tours from the reception of the lodge, as they have a great link with the main tour guides in tortuguero.
