The Hotel premises are very beautiful but the shower was cold. Service did not help. Restaurant was good but could be cheaper. You get there per boat

We really liked Mawamba lounge. It really gives us the “Pura Vide” It’s a special experience - when sleeping at night, we hear the current waves, when waking up in the morning, we hear the bird sounds. The room doesn’t have WiFi, but we actually didn’t mind (as we could really be relaxed during the stay). It is close to the town, and have a natural path walking to town.

Die Zimmer Ausstattung war sehr einfach aber ok. War ja nur zum Schlafen...jedoch sehr unbequeme Kissen. Beim Frühstück hatte ich mehr erwartet.Das Essen im Restaurant war ein bisschen überteuert. Für ein kleinen Blattsalat ca. 9Euro. Die Anlage war schön...hat Charme.

This is my second time in Tortuguero but my first at Mawamba. I’d seen the beautiful grounds before and wanted to experience it in person, This is a nature lovers paradise! The grounds are beautifully maintained with native plants, lots of walking trails which are inviting to so much wildlife including toucans, orenpendula, parrots, macaws, red eyed tree frogs and so much more. Tortuguero National Park is a short walk away and I went there often. But I love the tours that Mawamba offers, kayak tours, birding tours, canal tours and an enjoyable floating restaurant. Rather than hop around all over Costa Rica, I spent nearly a week, and I’m glad I did. The staff is very accommodating, the food is good and the guides area amazingly skilled in the history of the area, the natural heritage and spotting wildlife. I’m very impressed and I will definitely return.

Best hotel of our Costa Rica trip yet. What a special place! The physical space is beautiful. The wildlife on the property and the gardens and general space were exceptional. Loved seeing toucans and monkeys right by our room. Loved walking to the ocean and river and town so easily. Wonderful boat tours of the national park with Steven. He blew us away with his knowledge of the flora and fauna of the area. Great responsiveness to emails and any questions or concerns. Also wonderful night tour with Humberto!
