Great time - The guide was great and the resort was beautiful. The schedule was relaxed which allowed time for hanging out and watching the monkeys and sloths in the trees! The only con was that the vegetarian options were lacking!!

Best trip in Costa Rica! Take this trip , it is easy to access, and ask for Fernando at the lodge, he’s amazing!! - This was a great trip! It made access easy by leaving from the airport or nearby hotels, and the staff at the lodge were extremely helpful. My absolute highest ratings go to Fernando. He worked tirelessly to meet my needs for drop off after the trip. I can’t enough about Fernando!! He made this trip a “5”, hands down!!

Take This Tour! - This trip was terrific. Our tour guide Marco went out of his way to ensure everyone had an informative and entertaining time. Even though we had lots of rain, we were able to enjoy all aspects of our trip. The accommodation and meals were good and the transportation by bus and boat was interesting. We would recommend this tour to anyone interested in exploring this part of Costa Rica. Thanks.

Tortuguero 2 night stay - Tortuguero was incredible. Once we got to Caño Blanco our guides were professional and pleasant. The journey there was straightforward and the boat ride to our lodge was v exciting (90 mins) and we felt very remote. The lodge was busy but was ran like a well oiled machine. We saw some amazing wildlife and v much enjoyed visiting Tortuguero for an explore and beer. Our journey back was long but that’s Costa Rica.

Average performance... - Average service only in English / Spanish, we had the surprise to share our room with 4 people, the place is sublime in a lush forest but the month of March does not allow to see turtles.

Rustic - WARNING - the rooms do NOT have AC or glass windows. Be prepared to be very hot. The room is very rustic (but clean) and the beds would give a chiropractor a migraine. Food was meh at best. The drinks were good and around $7 which is very reasonable. The monkeys at the resort were the highlight. They will play along the building next to the pool and you can just watch them for hours. Crabs, frogs and iguanas all around. Got to see a raccoon as well. The grounds are nicely kept.
