Family hotels and homes in Boca Tapada

Boat trip up the San Carlos river to the Nicaraguan border. Lovely local guide Alan, who also took us on a night hike in the jungle. All organised through the Lodge.

One of those rare 10/10 hotels! We had an amazing time at this lodge and can only recommend it. Our bungalow was so beautiful, the restaurant has an amazing view and good food. So much food is homemade or homegrown. All the tours we did were great and super easy to organize. The amount of birds you can see from the restaurant is amazing. So much nature to see on their own paths, would definetely recommend a guided walk to make the most out of it. Very friendly staff. Great massage directly above the water. It all felt very luxurious and high end, but gave us lots of easy access to beautiful nature and wildlife.

Fantastic wildlife. This is one of the best eco-lodges you can find. A mature lodge. Food is excellent and the staff is better. Just a great place. Second trip there.

Pure jungle feeling in a family-run business. Alan speaks very good English and has a great knowledge of the fauna. Defenitely take the boat tour! All kinds of birds and iguanas could be observed right at breakfast. One thing you have to realize is that due to the high humidity, the robe and sheets are never really dry
