It is a wonderful spot.
The photos don't do it justice, nestled between the river and the sea, the public boat dropped us off at the property.
Staff were excellent, teens loved the pool and how easy it was to wonder into town.

The best staff you can ask for. True hospitality!!! The breakfast was quaint but delicious. The property is older and simple but clean and safe.
We had a wonderful stay at Miss Junies. It was well located near to town but had the secluded nature at the end of the village. The sea on one side and the river on the other. The character of the building was amazing with beautiful gardens all around, we saw many different birds and animals. They also had a great pool to swim in.The food we had for breakfast and dinner was delicious. We really enjoyed the two tours we did there the turtle nesting and canoe trip of the canals. They were very informative and genuinely seemed interested and concerned with nature and conservation.
Miss Junies was excellent, and has such an interesting history as an integral part of Tortuguero. The staff were amazing, Noly took us on a night time turtle tour where we got to see two turtles at the same time! Her nephew was a great river guide by both motorboat and kayak, and the chef made us incredible food every day. Thank you so much Miss Junies!
Really authentic place. Beautiful grounds, we saw lots of birds here, and big iguanas. The swimming pool is beautiful and relaxing. Comfy rooms. Make sure to book your tours from here. We booked our turtle tour and canoe tour from here. Our turtle guide is miss Nori from the hotel. She is beyond amazing! She is local, so knowledgeable and does patrols along the beach to protect the turtles. Really admirable!
We were really well greeted by the owners, breakfast was included and the pancakes were delicious.
Cloyd gave us a fantastic turtles watching tour.
Thank you!
The lodge is situated perfectly, at the beginning of the center yet completely isolated in a big and wonderful garden. Nolly and her team were incredibly welcoming and kind. I would highly recommend staying here, the lodge has a very long history and this adds big value. They arranged all our tours and transport - always finding a solution for our needs, making our stay just magical! For example, where other groups had to visit the turtles in large numbers we did it together with the owner - just the three of us! Many examples like this. As a bonus they also serve the best pico de gallo in all of Costa Rica for breakfast. So to summarise: your stay supports a family owned business with a long history for Tortuguero. You will not be disappointed.
Rubbish stay here, staff tried telling us we have one room booked instead of too. The staff tried telling me coffee and juice in breakfast was an extra charge after we had it. A joke of a service. You can’t pay in card, they only accept cash even though there is a card payment sticker in the reception. Don’t stay here unless you want a stressful and awful experience
Dogs everywhere and their mess which was a shame as the location is great.
The host isn’t very personable but others are.
Facilities in the room are very poor and there is no way this is a 3 star establishment.
When it came time to pay the figure was higher than on hotels.com and she would only take cash as the card machine was broken and the bank won’t fix it.
So tried to over charge me and made up a story about the card machine.
Cannot recommend at all.
The woman who checked us in was abrasive and rude. She made us wait for half an hour even though there was no one else there. I explained that we had booked online and paid in advance, and showed her the confirmation, but she seemed distrustful. I had to explain and show her several times. She became annoyed and argumentative because we booked a turtle tour with another company, not through the hotel. When we checked out on day 3, she did not remember our conversation about having prepaid online, and stalled, asking me about payment again. I finally had to just walk away so we wouldn’t miss the ferry. This was the only unpleasant staff experience of our entire vacation in Costa Rica.
Mon séjour chez Miss Junies était merveilleux.
La chambre était très propre et le personnel adorable.
Un véritable paradis selon moi !

Accueil moyen, salles de bains rustiques, dîner moyen, pas de paiements par carte possible, petit déjeuner moyen , etc donc globalement déçu par cet hôtel recommandé dans les guides et bien situé dans la ville typique et authentique. Peut être est ce parce que nous étions en saison basse , mais pas certain … je crains plus un hôtel avec vit trop sur son passé ou sur la « « « facilité » ?

Bon hôtel assez simple mais très sympa.
Les chambres sont correctes mais restent assez simples, climatisées, calmes et très propres.
Le service de petit-déjeuner peut s’avérer très long dans une salle assez morose.
De plus les quantités sont assez chiches et c’est boisson chaude ou jus de fruit… pas les deux. Il serait préférable d’ajouter une paire de € ou $ et servir des pdj plus copieux.
L’emplacement est top, au bout du village avec la mer des Caraïbes d’un côté et la lagune de l’autre.
Belle piscine.
Tout le personnel est top !
L'établissement, la chambre et la piscine et les espaces sont propres. L'emplacement est formidable, au bout du village et entre rivière et mer, mais reste très calme.
Par contre, le petit déjeuner n'est pas très copieux et le serveur n'était pas du tout professionnel et nous avons déjeuné sur 1 heure au total !!!!
