What impressed me the most about this hotel was the service. From the moment they pick you up to the moment they drop you off, the service is impecable. We all met at a hotel where we took the ground transfer to Caño Blanco. We were met by Sergio who was our guide for the ground portion of the trip. The Driver, Roy, was great and with Sergio’s friendly attitude the trip was short. It was great to arrive at Caño Blanco and not worry about luggage, while we went to get some treats and water the Manatus Crew were setting up our luggage in the boat. As soon as we were ready to leave we meet our guide for the Tortuguero region, Chito.

We set off from San Jose in the early morning en route to our destination of the remote, off-the- beaten path location of Tortugero, on the northeastern Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. Little did we know what adventures were to come!

I can honestly say this was one of my favorite experiences that I’ve had in the country. With Manatus, private transportation isn’t merely a shuttle ride, it is a full tour with a typical Costa Rican breakfast, banana plantation tour and a stop at beautiful tropical gardens with monkeys, toucans, sloths, frogs and a variety of heliconias and other tropical plants.

Cala Luna is a nice hotel close to Tamarindo. It’s nice because it is out of the way (all the way at the end of Tamarindo. The beach is very quiet and it’s like a 15 minute walk to Tamarindo Beach. I wasn’t impressed with the standard rooms because they were very simple and there are no ocean view rooms. The hotel isn’t right on the beach like Tamarindo Diria.
