Tortuga Lodge and Gardens

We loved pretty much everything about this place. Our lanai was amazing and such a nice place to hang out in the chairs or on the hammocks. Hammocks elsewhere was appreciated as well. The river views were great and all of the wildlife on the grounds. The restaurant served good food and service was almost always wonderful. The ambience of the restaurant and bar was great as well. Very thoughtful to have spf and bug spray at certain locations for us to use. Loved having coffee and tea available to us all day in the restaurant to serve ourselves. Also loved the daily happy hours in the bar. All of the excursions and the guides, Norton, Willis and Noel were fantastic. Also liked the fresh juices after some of the excursions!

The rooms were a little on the dark side. I had a little difficulty booking the excursions. I sent a couple emails but did not receive replies, once at lodge it was not a problem. The check-in process was a little awkward. The initial meeting went well with the nice welcome drink then we were sent to the restaurant but wasn't sure what happened next. We had to seek out someone to see if our room was ready and it was but I don't think anyone was going to tell us. Service at the bar was not fantastic. The bartender was enjoying talking to the ladies too much to be bothered with us.

Tortuga Lodge was a bit pricey but well worth it. Restaurant was very good and they keep the property very tidy for being in the jungle. Would stay again for sure. Lots of wildlife on the property.

Would have preferred if window shades stayed down a bit since there are no glass windows. Got windy at night and they pretty-much act like a sail. Small annoyance.

Tortuga Lodge and Gardens is a little corner of paradise. The view on the river is amazing, we had the opportunity to observe a lot of animals in the garden of the hotel. The whole team gave us a warm welcome and is very attentive to our needs. Thanks again for these 2 days :)

Everything was perfect! Best Pool- great staff great place great country!

Everything! Exceptional service.

Three beds in a room.

Everything was great, from communicating before we arrived about transfers and tours to the most helpful and kind staff when we arrived. Our room was lovely, clean and comfortable. Not an issue for us but there are no glass windows, just mesh screens which let the fantastic breeze through on an evening. All the meals were delicious. The guides were really knowledgeable and made sure you had an enjoyable experience on the tours. We felt so welcomed and didn’t want to leave!
