Overall Ratings & Reviews Laguna Lodge Full Board

Really enjoyed Hillwalk and Early morning cruise. Andrews, Jordan, and Sebastian were all great!

Don't bother , go elsewhere

Lovely relaxing place. Greeted at the airport first thing & a breafast table was ready waiting for us when we arrived at the hotel which was a great bonus. Especially when we left our hotel in San Jose at 04.30am. The staff were really helpful, friendly & spoke great english. The room was clean and tidy. The grounds were lovely & home to an abundance of wildlife. Tortugero is in walking distance of approx 30 mins. The sunrise boat through the national park was great & the guides very knowledgeable. We saw plenty of wildlife. We walked through the rainforest in the afternoon and saw sloths & monkies. Plenty of food choice at both breakfast & lunch. Free coffee & tea 24/7 in the restaurant & plenty of umbrellas around just in case. My only gripe would be theres limited hooks in the room especially for hanging wet clothes & the deeper pool needs some attention, but I do note the 2nd pool has been renovated, so i think its a work in progress but dont let thus put you off by any means.

Rustic glamping comes to mind! Cabins can get hot as there is no AC. But you are in the middle of the park and the birds wake you up with loud chirping at 5am!

Geat place to stay.

Bel hôtel, beau jardin, avec belle vue sur la rivière. Tortuguero est à 5 mn en bateau-taxi.

Such a beautiful place, kind people there and so beautiful, my best recommondations

The staff was very accomodating, they even baked a cake for us to celebrate a special event and tried to make the stay memorable for us. Would definitely recommend

We really enjoyed our stay at Laguna lodge, the staff were amazing and the family pool was lovely, they also make great cocktails, with bars at both pools and also a lovely bar over looking the lagoon. The only negative for us was the restaurant, the food was ok but buffet cycled through two options over two nights, so was a bit repetitive if staying for more than two nights and not many options for a vegetarian, however there were many great dining options in the town, which is a 30 minute walk away, or you can take a water taxi. Something we didn’t know was that there were no option in Tortuguero to get cash and all the taxi boats were cash only. There were also many great tours available locally, we particularly enjoyed a night time turtle tour seeing the green turtles come to shore to lay eggs and also a daytime tour where we were lucky to see the babies hatching, we stayed there in September.

El enclave maravilloso, pero las habitaciones están deterioradas no hay aire acondicionado y mal insonorizadas , respecto a los vecinos . El personal del hotel encantador. Y el Guía del hotel muy profesional y atento .

Great staff and very quiet relaxing atmosphere. Love that they have an adult pool to keep separated from littles when you are looking for adult time

Liked: Beautiful natural surroundings, eating meals alongside the lagoon. Lovely gardens and grounds, well cared for. Abundant, helpful, well-trained staff. They’re well-organized for managing big groups of tourists. Guides to teach us about local plants and animals. The town is a 20-30 min walk from the lodge. Rooms were clean, in simple, appealing wooden buildings. Disliked: Shocked to find it’s focused on package tours. Hated the crowds and having to take all our meals there (mediocre buffet). Lack of communication from Expedia or hotel about essential information. Overpriced ($270/night) for what you get. Rooms lack place to hang damp clothing. No blow dryer. Very limited internet access. The gorgeous Caribbean beach is littered with trash! Plastic and junk all along the beach kept guests away. It’s unforgivable that a pricy lodge does not clear its beach of rubbish and litter.

Amazing slice of Paradise. Right on the beach and the river and in the jib the. Saw iguanas, toucans, humming birds, armadillos sloths and lots of beautfirul butterflies Lovely pools and great breakfast Would thoroughly recommend

you were all alone and could only get there by boat

It was what we expected. We will try to return

Great Lodge in beautiful gardens. Well organised trips with really good guides. All staff very helpful and friendly.

Staff was incredibly nice and accommodating

site location is perfect. The room we had was very basic, bed is ok no additional things in the room such as closet, TV, or table.

This place is for elderly people who are going on tours, not for younger couples or couples with children.

The resort is very well run and our guide Mario was excellent and always on hand to assist if required. The resort is somewhat rustic but that's part of it's charm. Very comfy beds and tasty food. The included excursions were great (boat tour and trip to the village). We also did the early morning boat tour which I'd highly recommend (we booked this with reception as soon as we arrived)
