Great base to explore Tortuguero. Friendly and helpful staff
Chris, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay at The Caribbean Paradise lodge was very pleasant, the staff goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. The grounds are very clean , lots of wildlife you can hear and see. It is 10 minutes away from Tortuguero village by taxi boat, but the staff is always ready to help with that. There is no AC but the fan in the room was sufficient and we had comfortable nights and slept well enjoying the sounds of nature . The breakfast was included and is an open buffet, you can arrange to buy lunch and dinner which are made on the property . We would love to go again .

4/10 Fair

Området og naturen omkring stedet var fantastisk, og vi så massere af dyr lige udenfor hoteldøren. Men hotellet virker meget slidt og ikke vedligeholdt. Maden var fin og lokal inspireret. Det var et venligt personale.

Sehr netter Aufenthalt
Sehr nettes und zuvorkommendes Personal. Schöne und gepflegte Anlage (hätte aber nicht sein müssen, meiner Meinung nach, waren ja schließlich im Dschungel). Die vom Hotel organisierten Touren mit Miguel waren superschön.

L'ombre de lui même.
Notre chambre était vétuste. Trop vétuste. J'ai du même demandé à faire changer le pommeau de douche. La literie est correcte. Mais sincèrement il faut rénover. Je le déconseille dans cet état. Le restaurant est plus table d'hôte mais ma foi de bonne facture. Et de toute façon si vous ne payez pas un taxi boat pour vous rendre au village pas le choix.

The setting was very nice, spectacular in fact, as all of Tortuguero. The prices were however quite hard to justify.

OK: Ruhige Lage, schöner Park. Hatten das Glück an einen guten Privat-Guide vermittelt zu werden wo er mit uns im Kanu auf kleineren Kanälen unterwegs war. Nicht OK: keine Bar, kein Wein, Restaurant nur Büffet mit engen Zeiten, daher privates Dinner immer in Tortuguero: Taxi Boot USD 10,00

A Gem
This place was ideal. Wonderfully friendly people, Bismarck the manager was so helpful at getting us on tours with local guides, just the 2 of us so we could decided what we wanted to do. Food was a good buffet at breakfast & just 1 choice in the evening but nice. Town is a boat taxi ride away, 10 minutes $10 return for 2. Rooms were clean & quiet, grounds well kept with hammocks in shaded areas. Our daughter told us about it, as she’d found it & had a girls holiday there ideal for all types of adventures Highly recommend

Herziges Hotel in der Natur
Zimmer waren OK, aber extrem hellhörig (keine schliessbaren Fenster). Auch würde dem Hotel eine sanfte Renovation gut tun. Das Buffet am Abend war leider sehr dürftig. Ein Menu und das wars. Dafür ist das Personal sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. In den Zimmer hat es kein WLAN, was n nicht unbedingt ein Nachteil ist

Se encuentra al principio de la zona hotelera, que lo hace accesible a toda la comarca. Es un excelente inicio para la expedición fotográfica y por lo tanto para internarse en la jungla.

A special location
This hotel is very basic but it was spotlessly clean, had everything you needed and the service was very good. But the really special thing about this hotel is the location. We were the only people staying at this hotel so it was extremely quiet apart from the sounds of the jungle. We lay in bed at night listening to monkeys, birds, from making their noises. Whilst we dangled our feet in the swimming pool we watched the spider monkeys play in the trees. It was very special. The staff are very friendly and accommodating, helping us arrange transport and trips. We did a couple of trips from here, the kayak, jungle walk and turtle tour. All were incredible and the guides were excellent

Séjour mitigé
Le cadre est magnifique, par contre il faut prendre le bateau taxi à 5$/ personne dès que l’on veut faire une activité. La nourriture est tres moyenne par contre Bismarck est très gentil est fait tout pour que votre séjour soit parfait. La propreté des chambres laisse à désirer .

Mooie relaxte locatie
Geweldig mooie locatie. We waren de enige gasten en werden super onthaald. Mooie tocht met boot gedaan via locatie (ook als enige) voelde echt als privé feestje! Eten lekker en op aanvraag geregeld. Een echte aanrader

Muy buenas instalaciones pero esta lejos de Tortuguero. Tenes que tomar un taxi acuático que es caro
Norberto, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Misleading advertising
I couldn’t say I loved our stay while the staff seemed nice. This is a newer establishment and there seemed to be a lack of transparency in how they conduct business. First, the complementary WiFi only exists on the dock and not in your room, which made researching the area very difficult. Second, i regret booking our canoe tour through them, with one guy quoting us one price and another refuting it and us paying significantly more than necessary. Third, the outdoor pool was being repaired and we had to be transported to another hotel to use their pool. Going off the property takes surcharges and I still couldn’t figure out how much. The first guy said they offer a 50% discount than local water taxi, which made it $10. The other guy didn’t seem happy about it and after chitchatting in Spanish among themselves, they came back to say it should be $16. this is the kind of lack of transparency that makes me very uncomfortable. Oh since you might not want to spend 16 dollars to get off their property, you can eat at their restaurant for 15 but this was also not written out anywhere. Overall I feel the staff is trying really hard to make people pay more rather than operating on a fair pricing system. I would not recommend this property to anyone unless there is significant improvement.

This place is a great deal for visiting tortuguero
We love this place! It is clean and basic with comfortable beds and the grounds are gorgeous. It's a short way from town but they are willing to drive you there by boat and believe me it is much nicer than town! Great staff and food. Highly recommend, good value... Kudos to Ron our nature guide, Bismarck the manager and Edna the cook. We were sad to leave after two days

Beautiful setting and lovely garden
We (family of three) were the guests every hotel manager dreams of: we arrived at a time when we were no longer expected, on the first night we managed to break the room key and upon leaving our daughter forgot a bag at the quai while boarding the boat to La Paviona (1hour from Tortuguero). Great. But instead of freaking out (it's not that easy to arrange for a new room key in remote Tortuguero) Bernardo stayed calm and helped us with everything. Pura vida!

Beautiful garden and excellent service
The hotel is located about 10 minutes before Tortuguero town which causes a slight inconvenience with the logistics. Taxis are going back and forth all the time but the fare is not free and the cost adds up after a while. The hotel is located in a beautiful little sanctuary with their own restaurant, pool and hammocks. Absolutely perfect if you are just here for relaxation. The manager has been very accomodating and helped us with everything we needed. Definitely full points for service effort!

Beautiful grounds, quiet, ok rooms
Manager Bernardo was helpful in organizing our time in Tortuguero. Excursions can be booked through the lodge (via Bernardo) or in town. However, it's recommended to book your excursion through the lodge and pay a little more to ensure your excursion is legit. We did the canal tour and turtle tour and would highly recommend doing both. Turtle tour during turtle nesting season is a must do! The lodge itself is on beautiful grounds surrounded by lots of greenery. As a result, you can hear the animals throughout the night and the howler monkeys in the morning. This is an experience on its own and one of the main reasons why I would recommend staying at a location not within Tortuguero town. We even saw white faced monkeys in the trees one day! Rooms are basic and have everything you need, but have a feeling of constant dampness due to the location and likely time of year we visited. Beds and pillows are moderately comfortable, so if you're looking for luxury, keep in mind this is an eco-lodge. The only way to get to town is by water taxi which costs $5/person (usd) each way, which you'll need to do if you don't want to eat all of your meals at the lodge. I would recommend this as it's also a way to experience the culture of tortuguero.
