### A Detailed Look at Laguna Lodge, Tortuguero
Laguna Lodge stands out as one of the more substantial lodging options in the beautiful region of Tortuguero, boasting approximately 100 rooms for visitors. However, don’t let its size fool you; the design of the lodge prioritizes guest privacy. Each cluster of rooms contains only four individual units, effectively separated by lush, vibrant tropical foliage. Guests can take advantage of not one, but two refreshing outdoor swimming pools, with one pool thoughtfully designated solely for adults seeking a more serene experience. Mealtimes are a delight at the large, open-air dining area where you can savor a variety of dishes. The lodge’s location is also a significant advantage, providing effortless access to both Tortuguero’s stunning central lagoon and the vast expanse of the Caribbean Sea.
**Advantages of Staying at Laguna Lodge:**
* The extensive property encompasses a generous 15 acres, strategically situated between the tranquil waters of the central Tortuguero lagoon and the captivating shores of the Caribbean Sea, ensuring convenient access to both unique aquatic environments.
* Meal options are plentiful and satisfying. You can savor a wide selection of dishes, including familiar Western-style cuisine, in the pleasant, open-air dining area. The lodge also features a bar located directly on the edge of the lagoon, offering a scenic spot for refreshments, as well as a convenient on-site café for quick bites and beverages.
* Guests can unwind and socialize in a variety of comfortable lounge areas, both indoors and outdoors, providing a range of ambiances to suit different moods and preferences.
* For those seeking adventure and exploration, the lodge offers a selection of optional tours, including the highly sought-after turtle tours during the designated turtle nesting season, available for an additional fee.
**Potential Drawbacks to Consider:**
* The rooms at Laguna Lodge may feel more akin to a standard hotel room than an immersive jungle bungalow experience, and the bathrooms could benefit from updates to modernize their appearance and functionality.
* Guests should be aware that the rooms are not equipped with air-conditioning, which could be a consideration depending on personal comfort preferences and the time of year.
* Reaching the lodge can present logistical challenges, as the Tortuguero area is exclusively accessible by boat or small aircraft, requiring careful planning for transportation.
* The lodge lacks certain amenities that some travelers may find desirable, such as an on-site fitness center (gym) or a dedicated spa facility.

When is the best time to visit?
Due to Costa Rica's location in Central America, near to the equator, it enjoys just two seasons annually as opposed to four. The dry season lasts from mid-November through April, and the rainy season lasts from May to mid-November. The latter is also referred to as the "green" season due to the brilliant vegetation that thrives during this period.
Travelers often opt to visit during the dry season. Peak crowds hit in December, with folks continuing to come during January and February and (for many North Americans) during spring break. However, there are advantages to visiting Costa Rica in the "green" season, from less crowds to lower prices. Read our travel guide for visiting Costa Rica in the "green" season to find out more.
