TORTUGA LODGE

All of Tortuga's bright and contemporary rooms and suites offer river views from their balconies and terraces, complete with hammocks for relaxing contemplations of these beautiful surroundings. Large windows are screened by mosquito nets instead of glass to bring the sights and the sounds of the jungle closer, meaning you are likely to wake to the sound of howler monkeys and chattering birds. The swimming pool is edged by a riverside sun deck for some well-deserved rest time between activities, and the Green Turtle Restaurant serves up flavours of the Caribbean and Costa Rica in creative style, with an emphasis on locally sourced ingredients.
