Manatus Lodge
The lodge has a well-equipped fitness room and spa with a wide range of treatments available. Other options for relaxation include a frame or two of billiards in the bar or a browse through the hotel’s art gallery.
- Be sure to explore the waterways by canal boat to see unique wildlife. An early morning trip is best for spotting the lurking caimans.
- There are lots of hiking possibilities for you to venture into the rainforest, perhaps to indulge an interest in colourful tree frogs.
- The more adventurous guest may opt for a zip line adventure in the canopy.
- A closer and more silent approach to nature can be achieved in a kayak. From this, you are more likely to spot otters, river turtles, or an elusive manatee, the hotel’s mascot.
- You will love an excursion to the nearby Tortuguero Village to absorb the local culture by visiting the market and also engaging with local conservation initiatives.
- Dependent on the time of year you choose to come, you may even be able to watch the local green turtle lay their eggs on the beach at night, or even the baby turtles hatching and making their journey to the sea.
