Guácimo Lodge
Ribera del San Juan, zona de amortiguamiento de Indio Maíz

Hotel Victoria
Calle principal de El Castillo
Hotel Victoria is on the main street of El Castillo, Río San Juan, a short distance from the Fortress of the Immaculate Conception. Unlike isolated forest lodges, this is a village accommodation that may suit visitors interested in the local historic site and separate river excursions. Reaching El Castillo normally requires arranging a boat connection from San Carlos, so confirm the departure point and schedule before travelling. Check room availability and any services provided by the hotel directly.

Refugio Bartola
Bartola, río abajo de El Castillo
Refugio Bartola lies downstream from El Castillo, near Bartola and the buffer zone of the Indio Maíz Nature Reserve. Originally associated with a research centre, it now receives visitors in a tropical forest setting. This is not a room in El Castillo village, so reaching it involves planning a separate river connection. Contact the property about the exact embarkation point, boat arrangements, meals and guided forest walks. Do not assume those activities or transport are included without confirmation.

Sábalos Lodge
Boca de Sábalos, sector raudal El Toro
Sábalos Lodge is in Boca de Sábalos on the San Juan River, facing the area of El Toro rapids, rather than in the centre of El Castillo. Its riverside cabins can serve as a base for observing nature and planning boat trips. Arrival and local activities depend on transport by water, so the route should be established before travelling. Verify the boat service from San Carlos, where to disembark, how to reach the lodge from that point and room availability on your dates.
