Although it is not right on the beach, the turtle preserve walkway to the beach is very close by and easily accessible. The TREE HOUSE was great! Big, spacious, clean and comfy with all the amenities and furnishings anyone can need. It had good indoor and outdoor lighting, plenty of parking and is situated very scenically on the property.

We chose to stay at Ostional Turtle Lodge due to the proximity to the beach where our tour was scheduled. It is definitely off the beaten path a little bit, but that's what makes Ostional such a special place. A short walk to the beach passing a couple small little restaurants made it perfect. Because we stayed so close, we were able to book a tour the next morning and not have to worry about driving. ##### Edward Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Caroline Mar 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hotel with great hosts The hosts were very welcoming and gave great recommendations on what beaches and restaurants to go to in the area.

The room was spotless with a kitchen that we utilized during out stay. The balcony facing the mangrove was a great place to sit and listen to the ocean waves and watch for animals. We saw howler monkey, mangrove crab, squirrels, black vulture, hummingbird....etc at the tree house. We enjoyed our 2 night stay here. Thank you! ##### Jack Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Luc Feb 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property is walking distance from the main turtle nesting beach which was our main focus. The rooms are simple but adequate, a clothes hanging rack or clothes drying line would be a great (and cheap) improvement. There is very little in the area (1 provision shop & a couple of eating joints) and a Tuk Tuk ride to the closest “town” is USD $20 one way. Our first time in Costa Rica and the cost of transportation and food have taken our breath away. Made us much more grateful for where we live 😆 ##### Luc Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy Jul 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Luis and Veronica have a very special place, and they are the nicest and most attentive hosts. They welcomed us warmly and told us about the local beaches and recommended local turtle guides, so we got to see some of the Olive Ridleys lay eggs! They even helped us with our special needs (laundry and when a flat tire)! The family tree house is such a unique structure, we loved staying in it. We saw many interesting animals right outside of our door from the porch. The rooms are super clean and very comfortable, and they get cleaned every day while you are there. You can walk to the Ostional Refuge easily in just a few minutes. One thing to know is that this is not really a swimming beach. It's nice to walk on, but the waves are large and if you get lucky and there is an arribada, then I heard they close the beach to protect the turtles. If you have a car then there are many gorgeous beaches within about a 20 minute drive. There are a couple of simple restaurants and an ice cream place within a few minutes walk, and a mini supermarket about 10 minutes drive away. The road leading to the lodge is unpaved and pretty bumpy, but not steep so we didn't actually need to use our 4-wheel drive during our time there. So, if you want to be somewhere quiet and authentic, with super nice people, then definitely go here! ##### Amy Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Traci Nov 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We were hoping we'd time it correctly for an arribada. We didn't, but our time was salvaged by all the fantastic suggestions of the property owners. They gave us contact for a guide (Gilbert) I took for a 5am tour where we were able to help turtle hatchlings get to the ocean! The nest had been disturbed by dogs and there were 6 viable turtles we were able to help. In addition, they gave us a contact for a boat tour. (Cherenga Tours) gave my husband and I a boat tour where we saw hundreds of turtles (500 ) in the water. It was an incredible site! He went above and beyond during the tour! We also saw dolphins on the way back! What a great 2 days! We ate pizza and pasta at the restaurant about 100 m down the road which was good. We also went into Nosara and really enjoyed the Tacos Al Pastor at Howlers. ##### Traci Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim Apr 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The hosts are lovely and very helpful. ##### Kim Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trent Dec 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great simple place to take in Ostional vibes ##### Trent Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Daniel Dec 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Rustic, but well equipped with kitchenette, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi (decent).
