Tiny House Atlas

Tiny houses in Tortuguero

Tortuguero is reached only by boat or small plane: a village on a sandbar between the Caribbean and a maze of rainforest canals, famous for the green turtles that nest on its beach between July and October. The few cabinas and small lodges here are simple, close to the water and surrounded by howler monkeys and caimans.

How we choose what counts as a tiny house

Booking sites don’t have a “tiny house” category — they file these stays under the generic “Accommodation” label. So we check every place by name and type and list only genuine free-standing small homes: tiny houses (on wheels or fixed), cabins, glamping pods, shepherd huts, yurts, domes and tree houses. No hotel rooms, no ordinary apartments.

The atlas currently lists 5517 hand-checked small stays across 485 destinations in 79 countries — 3731 of them additionally verified through independent research with a documented source.

Prices and availability come from our booking partners and can change at any time. Booking links are affiliate links — booking through them supports this site at no extra cost to you. Property type is checked from the listing name and category; if you spot a mistake, let us know.
