We stayed at Aracari for 3 nights and had an amazing stay. Two out of three of us were a bit sick so we had a pretty chill time while here but had no complaints. Our private room had AC which was amazing with how humid it was. The kitchen was well stocked and clean. The lady at the front desk was so helpful and answered every question we had. We booked a shuttle through them to La fortuna and it turned into our favourite day on the trip so far because our driver was amazing! Highly recommend

Nice garden property. Close to everything you need. Stayed in private room which was comfortable and clean. Air con made a difference. Staff helped plan our stay and activities and gave helpful advice. We went to the hotel over the road and paid a small fee to use their swimming pool for the day. No breakfast available.

The hostel has a beautiful garden and has perfect location by the beach. I was a bit disappointed with the room to be honest. the room smells super humid and when I arrived there were about 30 mosquitoes in the room. The wifi only worked for 1 of the 3 days I was there and as there is no service in tortuguero this was inconvenient.
