Good A/C, nice sized room. Appreciated the "larger" mini frudge and coffee maker in the room. Very helpful woth local resources and advice on best travel routes. Got to see a mother howler monkey nursing her baby in the tree just adjacent to the room. Room walls are concrete, so couldn't hear anything from adjacent rooms. Much more serene atmosphere than the hectic pace and crowds in Nosara and Guiones beach areas. Would definitely stay again. Thank you, Louie for wonderful hospitality.

This is an oasis of peace. 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 loved our time here. The host is gracious and welcoming.

The best place to explore the region. A great host with lots of tips about beaches and activities. You can go walking (200m) to the place of arribadas!

Fantastic location that's walking distance to the refuge! the room was very clean and the owners were very helpful and gracious. The room itself was basic and maybe a little weary, but the location, secure parking, and kindness of the owners made it great. If I were to visit again, I'd stay if their treehouse for the charm and amenities.

It is pretty basic, but it was SUPER CLEAN, the room was nice and cold, and the staff was amazing. 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.

The hosts, Louis and Veronica, were very welcoming. The room was very nice, and we were within walking distance of some restaurants that we liked quite a bit. The property was very close to the turtle reserve. Would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.

Had a fantastic experience and enjoyed the tree house room which was clean, spacious, and provided a nice view of the surrounding area.. The managers Luis and Vero couldnt be nicer and more pleasant. The local dining and bar establishments were walkable and had good food and drink . Wish i could've sfayed longer

We stayed at the tree house. 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!

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 😆

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.

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!
