"Ahhhhmazing"

"The grounds were very nice and the hot tub was a wonderful way to decompress after our adventures in Costa Rica before flying home."

"We were late checking in and have staff waiting for us to show us our “room”, reply more a villa. Beautiful views, beds amazing, ambience, breakfast was delicious. A great experience."

"Overall room looked like the pictures. No evelvator on property. AC worked great. Clean. Breakfast place on site. Overall staff were nice with limited english. Parking is the only sketchy part."

"This Lodge was a wonderful experience, with lots of great activities to do every day. My only complaint was that everything closed very early and the road going into the resort desperately needs to be paved!"

"One of the most relaxing resorts I have ever been to! SO TOTALLY nice to be somewhat isolated and just enjoy the beautiful scenery and wildlife! "

"Amazing!"

"Blue River Resort & Hot Springs is a gem of a location. The roads in and out are a nightmare to drive in but the location itself is an idyllic oasis. We decided to stay here as part of our "Pure Vida exploration trip" because we knew we wanted to go see the Cathedral Waterfall (El Santuario). Blue River is ideally located for that purpose and was the main reason we initially booked it. It was never part of the plan to stay there but we are so glad we did. We never intended to make use of all their amenities but after hearing about them upon arrival we booked an additional day so we could get the full experience since our first day we arrived at night. We enjoyed the natural saunas (enjoying the company of some bats), lathered ourselves in the volcanic mud and then relaxed in the multiple hot springs and fresh water pools they have on site. Saw some cool birds at the bird lake, visited the miniature horses and donkeys and the peacocks they have. The staff were great and food was good (would recommend the Casado for lunch everytime). But by far the best part was the tour we booked with Geovany to see the El Santuario. He went above and beyond and took us on an awesome tour of that amazing waterfall. He made sure we had a safe trip and saw to it that we enjoyed ourselves. He had a wealth of knowledge about the environment/animals in the area and even managed to find us an elusive sloth my wife badly wanted to see. Would highly recommend taking the tour with Geovany.

"We loved our stay at this rustic location. Awesome authentic breakfast and very accommodating and informative hostess, Yocky. For travellers expecting luxury and air conditioning, this is not that experience. It is rural (some dodgy roads to get there), and basic but clean and well maintained cabins. Good hiking in the area. "
