Nice garden property. Close to everything you need. Stayed in private room which was comfortable and clean. Air con made a difference. Staff helped plan our stay and activities and gave helpful advice. We went to the hotel over the road and paid a small fee to use their swimming pool for the day. No breakfast available.

The hostel has a beautiful garden and has perfect location by the beach. I was a bit disappointed with the room to be honest. the room smells super humid and when I arrived there were about 30 mosquitoes in the room. The wifi only worked for 1 of the 3 days I was there and as there is no service in tortuguero this was inconvenient.

Excelente lugar , hermoso su jardin y las habitaciones todo muy limpio y ordenado. Ideal para descansar ya que la mayoria de las actividades son temprano.

Stayed in a private room which was a really nice size. The hostel didn't have much of an atmosphere while I was there, so not the best for solo travellers. The lady at reception was super helpful and really nice. I would advise against booking the canoe tour with them, the guide I had was not very good.

Tolles Hostel mit großartiger Lage. Man kann sogar Tukane und Affen aus der Hängematte beobachten.

Der Kühlschrank schimmelt, sehr eklig. Einfach mal die Kühlschranktüre putzen? Die Kissen riechen muffig, der Bezug war sauber denke es liegt an dem Kisseninhalt. Die Lage ist super und der Garten ist toll :) Die Touren sind wo anders günstiger.

Excelente alojamiento, súper prolijo, alquilamos una habitación privada y estaba impecable, tenía aire acondicionado y pasaban a limpiarla todos los días. Queda cerca del muelle principal lo cual es bueno. Nos gustó mucho el alojamiento.

Hostel works with a great team of bilingual guides (Spanish, English). Nicely located just a bit away from the noise of the docks, but just a 2 min walk. Dorm rooms are hot, noisy and not the most comfortable unfortunately. No fan, creaking dorm beds and a bit laid through mattresses. I have had worse but also better dorms.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The setting is so green and lush, and I was greeted with a welcome drink. The room has AC which is a godsend in the warm, humid weather in Tortuguero. The soundproofing isn’t the best so it’s easy to hear your neighbours but I wore earplugs and was fine. Also there is not really hot water, mostly lukewarm/not cold water. If you’re ok with that then I recommend this place to stay.

Ein wirklich sehr schönes Hostel, wir wurden sogar vom Bootsanleger abgeholt und haben uns hier sehr wohlgefühlt. Die Tukane sieht man wirklich aus der Hängematte und auf einem Baum nebenan sind ab und zu auch Aras zu beobachten.
