Independent Tortuga Island hotels

"Single room has no natural air nor light, take notice of this if you don’t want to stay here "

"The peppery"

"This hotel was family-friendly and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We were able to book excursions through the hotel and spa services as well. There is an aviary on site with macaws, peacocks and other birds. The is a stable on site as well. We were able to go horseback riding on the beach. There are three restaurant choices in addition to the buffet and snack bar. Reservations need to be made a day in advance in order to have dinner at the steakhouse, sushi restaurant, and Italian restaurant. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there although it is quite far from the San Jose airport. It is a two hour drive on the toll road, one hour on the ferry and another 20-30 minutes to the resort. If you don’t mind the traveling, you should book there."

"Excellent location. Beautiful grounds and pools. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Service and food were excellent. It's a fantastic value for the price. I highly recommend this resort. I will go back there."

"It was heavenly across the board"

"La comida de los restaurantes con reserva excelente pero el bufet deja mucho que desear ya que los platos no están bien elaborados y con poco sabor. La atención del personal excelente, fue lo mejor, siempre amables y atentos. Al menos en mi habitación habían una cantidad muy grande de mosquitos (mate al menos 30 - 40), otros insectos pequeños y hasta una pequeña cucaracha. El baño no olía bien, y la puerta del baño deja pasar toda el agua cuanto uno se baña por lo que hay que secar todo el piso luego."

"Everything is first class all the way. You are treated with respect and professionalism. The staff are all very nice. The rooms are clean, the bathrooms are well stocked with towels and accessories. I highly recommend staying at this hotel/resort. It costs a bit more but in this case you get exactly what you pay for. "

"It just wasn't what we were expecting. The sunset views and the beach, well Playa Blanca was breathtaking. Playa Mantas was pretty dirty and we only stayed there long enough to find out how to get to Playa Blanca. The breakfast was probably the best part and most accurate. I was traveling with my mother and we both have mobility issues. Maybe I did not research enough but I was under the impression that the beach was "steps" from the resort and they could accommodate mobility issues. We requested a room with h"

"The pools were a lot of fun. Breakfast buffet was fabulous. Our room had a fridge, microwave, and dishwasher which allowed us to get food at the local market. Self-laundry service was convenient as well."
