Muy rural y apartado de todo. Pero tiene mucho encanto. Perfecto para un par de días

Wonderful stay at Lirio Lodge
Wonderful logde, with great service at a beautiful location. A real shame that Hotels.com had the wrong location on their website which Made us drive almost 3 hours in the wrong direction:(

only interesting if this comes in a package deal
We booked Lirio Lodge as a 3 night stay at the end of July and our intention was that this was going to be our gateway to Tortuguero. We were foremost interested in the turtle nesting, which - according to our research - takes place from July through September. We knew the lodges were of a "back to nature" concept and we had embraced the idea of not having internet or phone reception for 3 days. We also knew that the lodge was located on an island (no cars can get there, the hotel boat picks you up and drops you off at the end of your stay) but we did not know that the lodge was the only accommodation on the island. Booking a room with breakfast was therefore completely useless since there was nowhere to go. Lunch and dinner were provided by the lodge and obviously obligatory. Meals were at 25 dollar per person per meal. A family of 4 (like us) pays $200 per day on meals alone. Since there was absolutely nothing to do on the facility, we were desperate for a way to pass the time therefore we engaged in the two 2-hour tours that were offered daily. They offer a boat ride, a morning walk and a visit to sea turtle conservation area where we got to see exactly one baby turtle through a fence. Tours were 35 dollars per tour per person.The lodge is of a 'back to nature" concept and I can handle the no windows and insects in the room, but are fitted sheets, mattress protector or a working shower too much to expect? Amenities are also not sufficient for the number of guests.

Incredibly unique and peaceful place to stay.
With only about 15 cabins, this place can never be over-crowded. You arrive by boat...there are no roads! All your meals are cooked for you and are very good! You have the opportunity for two outings each day with an informative guide, and a night outing to see the turtles if the timing of your stay is right.

Rapport qualité/prix hors de propos
Pas d’eau chaude, bungalow pas étanche, literie de mauvaise qualité, encore moins de wifi, petit-déjeuner et repas à l’économie avec chauves-souris au plafond de l’abri qui sert de restaurant défèquant un peu partout… le minimalisme ok mais pas à ce niveau de tarif ! En revanche les excursions sont agréables et les guides très sympas et compétents.

Hola. Tomaremos muy en cuenta sus sugerencias, muchas gracias. Mis comentario son los siguientes. Lirio Lodge esta en la jungla de Costa Rica, no hay cobertura celular en toda esta región, pues como usted pudo constatar debemos ir en bote, la electricidad que tenemos es solar y por supuesto que al no haber antenas celulares cerca no hay Wifi. Con respecto a los muercilagos, el restaurante es el aire libre, ahi podrá ver tambien pajaros, cocodrilos, mariposas, delfines pues el restaurante esta sobre el agua, es un lugar abierto, muy limpio y las mesas estan ubicadas en lugares alejados de estos animales, no entiendo lo que le sucedio a usted con los murcielagos, revisaremos el tema. Sobre la ropa de cama, es nueva, obviamente no son plumas de ganzo. El agua caliente se obtiene de paneles solares y dependemos de las condiciones del clima. Saludos y gracias

Très bel endroit au bout du monde
Bel endroit très très isolé, belle immersion dans la jungle, mais les repas sont assez chers.

Schoene kleine Anlage
Super Betreuung durch die hoteleigenen Guides rund um die Uhr. Das Essen war auch sehr lecker. Die Bungalows waren toll, statt Fenster fliegengitter auf 3 Seiten so dass man das Gefühl hatte im freien zu schlafen. Ein Nachteil war aber das Abwasser, das vom Klo in eine kleine offene Klaergrube hinter dem Bungalow geleitet wurde, was man leider roch. Die klospuelung im Bungalow hat darüber hinaus auch nicht gut funktioniert.
