On the Caribbean coast, tucked between the Tortuguero River and plantation-style gardens, Tortuga Lodge offers an award-winning getaway unlike any hotel in Costa Rica. Just outside your door, the pristine rainforest surroundings beckon you to explore the mysteries of this complex ecosystem.
A river lodge built in harmony with its tropical environment, the hotel offers a tranquil, relaxing and exclusive experience. Each of the 29 rooms features sweeping views of the Tortuguero River. Guest comforts range from free Wi-Fi and nightly turndown service to rubber boots, walking sticks and umbrellas for your rainforest excursions.
The Mydas Nest Restaurant at Tortuga Lodge is beautifully designed with an open-air setting. There are no windows, doors or walls in the restaurant, allowing you to enjoy the captivating beauty and ambiance of the Costa Rican rainforest. The restaurant offers views of the Tortuguero River, creating an enchanting dining experience for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In the evening, flickering candles and torches add a touch of tropical romance and allure. Savour an a la carte menu featuring authentic Costa Rican Caribbean dishes and fusion specialties. Before or after your meal, or just to enjoy a glass of wine from our cellar, a bar with a terrace and deck area is located adjacent to the restaurant.
As the only hotel in Tortuguero with its own private nature reserve, it offers an array of adventures and activities. Daily nature walks are led by experienced naturalist guides, who also lead tours to turtle nesting sites, boat rides and kayak trips up the Tortuguero River, to the Tortuguero National Park, twilight nature hikes and more.
