Lirio Lodge

Visitors can go to the Barra del Pacuare beach where leatherback sea turtles come ashore to lay their eggs. This lodge is just around 20 miles (32 km) south of Tortuguero National Park, another hotspot for seeing sea turtles in the wild. Guests can use the lodge’s canoes. You can go see the canals that surround the river and take tours after sundown to see nocturnal animals.

On the grounds of the hotel, you’ll find a gazebo with hammocks. Wander in the gardens, and feel the warm sea breeze. Lirio Lodge’s restaurant faces the river. All of your meals are included in your stay. Bottled water, alcoholic drinks, and sodas are available for purchase.

Guests stay in “eco-tents” or “eco bungalows.” All of these accommodations are environmentally friendly and use energy from solar panels.

Eco-tents are especially picturesque, with comfortable interiors and polished wood interiors. On the large deck you can use solar-powered lamps. While you stay in an eco tent you’ll have access to a shared bathroom.

Eco bungalows have private bathrooms with hot and cold water. They also have spacious decks and their own little gardens. Inside you’ll find cushy beds and tropical colors.
