“Precioso hotel básico en Tortuguero”

Anfitriones encantadores, muy servicial. Alojamiento y propiedad impecablemente limpios en general. Desayuno incluido - americano o costarricense - recomiendo encarecidamente el arroz y los frijoles. ¡Muy sabroso! La piscina era bienvenida al final de un largo y caluroso día.

Anfitriones encantadores, muy servicial. Alojamiento y propiedad impecablemente limpios en general. Desayuno incluido - americano o costarricense - recomiendo encarecidamente el arroz y los frijoles. ¡Muy sabroso! La piscina era bienvenida al final de un largo y caluroso día. Tumbonas reclinables también disponibles si desea tomar el sol. Los monos aulladores viven en los árboles alrededor del hotel, por lo que es probable que los vea balanceándose de árbol en árbol. Este hotel está apartado y ligeramente lejos de la zona principal del pueblo y las tiendas por lo que es tranquilo. Está junto a la salida del sendero de Leopardo. Aunque tranquilo y apacible, todavía está a solo 5 minutos a pie del centro del pueblo y el muelle público de barcos.

“Nice Hotel with "guide"- service”

The hotel is located quite a footwalk away from the pier. You will be intercepted first at La Pavona and then again at the pier in Tortuguero by guides who claim to only work for this and Icaco hotel. It would have been nice if the hotel would have mentioned that before, as without this information… Más

The hotel is located quite a footwalk away from the pier. You will be intercepted first at La Pavona and then again at the pier in Tortuguero by guides who claim to only work for this and Icaco hotel. It would have been nice if the hotel would have mentioned that before, as without this information it is a little weird to see your name on a list of a random guy which is appearantly no part of the hotel staff. After showing you the way, the guides give some detailed information about dos and don'ts and, of course, try to sell you tours. After helping you out with the luggage etc. this is quite a good selling strategy, you should just be aware. We did two of the offers, the canoo tour and the night tour which are 25$ each per person plus the park entry fee of 15$ per person. You have to pay in cash directly to the "guide" and cannot put it on the hotel invoice... suspicious. To sum it up, the canoo tour was nice, however I could not see any difference to other canoo tours on the water as this one was advertized as longer and with less people. Don't do the nightwalk, as this is definetly a waste of money. We did see a red eyed treefrog which was nice, but that was it. As Tortuguero village is a pretty shady place you maybe don't want to wander through the dark alone with a stranger guide neither. The hotel itself was ok. We had a room on the ground floor, directly next to the pool. It was clean with enough ventilation of fresh air. There was a daily roomservice. The optional breakfast at hotel Icaco was ok with a menu to chose from (all types were around 4000 colones per person) I would give the hotel 4 points but have to substract one point due to the kinda suspicious "guide" selling strategy of tours. They could give it a more professional touch if the guides were clearly identifyable as hotel staff, the hotel would have mentioned something before and if I would not have to pay the "guide" directly in cash.
