A new riverside dinning room adds special tone to the atmosphere. The whole Tortuga Lodge operation received a face-lift in 1997, which include the construction of a large new dining room and bar that fronts Tortuguero's main canal. The nicest feature here is the long multilevel deck, where you can sit and dine, sip a cool tropical drink, or just take in the view as the water laps against the docks at your feet. All the rooms have been remodeled and are considered standard, with one double and one single bed, ceiling fans, and a comfortable private bathroom. I'd opt for the second-floor rooms, which feature varnished wood walls and floors with a small covered veranda.
Service here is generally quite good, as are the meals.
