“Great experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 14, 2012

Great locations, the staff very nice, the rooms are also quite rustic but they are very decent for such a small island, the food was good and fast. We shared a triple so it was very comfortable to stay in separate beds with the idea of being at the Caribbean.

Room Tip: Get the triple if you can, you would have a terrace with a nice view.

“An excellent experience in Tortuguero village!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 6, 2012

Cabinas La Casona is an excellent place to stay in the village of Tortuguero. Rooms are basic but very clean, the showers provide nice hot water (not always possible in parts of Costa Rica) and the beds are comfortable. The location is great: it actually sits on the soccer field sideline!! and it's just a few yards from the beach or from the main street in town. David and Raquel were fantastic hosts and the restaurant had excellent food (the coconut chicken and the fruit brochettes with chocolate sauce are to die for!). They're very friendly and run some of their own tours. The canoe tour through some of the canals that David gave us was excellent and we even had a break for hot tea and cookies!!! How many times have you had tea in a canoe?
Best luck to them. Great place, great people.

“Great place to stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 1, 2011

This hotel is the best place to stay in Tortuguguero. The price is good and the service is great! Highly recommended. Just off the beach, hammocks and plenty of tours to chose from.

“Good value for money!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 4, 2010

The hotel is very well located, 1 minute from the beach. The staff is nice and the restaurant is OK. The rooms are simple and there is a mosquito net. I recommend this place in Tortuguero.
