Tortuga Lodge

Rustic Elegance in the Rain Forest

Situated on 50 acres of private land on Costa Rica's northeast Caribbean coast. Tortuga Lodge's main reason for existence is to provide room and board for people interested in experiencing Tortuguero and Tortuguero National Park.

Designed to blend into the river environment, the pool features an environmentally friendly purification system that uses an undetectable amount of salt instead of commercial chlorine. The water does not irritate the eyes.

All rooms at Tortuga Lodge have as much window area as walls. Indoors and outdoors loose their meaning at the lodge.

With over 80% of Tortuga Lodge's personnel from the Tortuguero area, we are committed to playing an active role in the Tortuguero community and working  closely with an exceptionally effective community development association that has made Tortuguero an innovative model for cooperation between private enterprise and local communities, obtaining substantial benefits for the town.

Add an energy conservation program that saves an average of 50% of the overall electrical energy consumption at the lodge; electric outboard motors for all of our boats so that guests can enjoy the forest free of noise and fumes; (We are the only lodge in Tortuguero that guarantees the use of electric motors on the small creeks unless high water and strong currents precludes their use for safety reasons.); Tortuga Lodge Botanical Gardens, featuring palms, orchids, heliconias and a unique swimming pool. A creative mix of local and original food by Perla and Conchita; persistent concentration on legendary service and unforgettable memories; and you've got the best nature lodge we can do within our budgetary limitations.
