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.

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.

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!
