The first day our children asked for syrup with their pancakes and it wasn’t available, so the next day, sure enough-syrup for our pancakes! It’s the little things that stand out! It’s secluded, but that’s part of the charm ☺️ ##### Krystyna Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim Dec 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wonderful people at this property. From the moment we arrived, everyone was friendly, helpful and willing to make our time memorable. Costa Rica is a special place-Blue River encompasses that. I would definitely come back and we were so happy our first time in CR was here. ##### Kim Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie Jan 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything from beginning to end was amazing!!

And the issue of the hot water on the shower continue for the second day, you will consider to move us to another room, because you have 5 available rooms. ##### Carlos Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erika Sep 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Blue River is great. The grounds are beautiful, the room is nice with a comfortable bed, and the hammock on the patio was perfect for relaxing. The free breakfast in the morning is great, along with the rest of the menu. I love the volcanic mud, the natural thermal pool sauna, and the butterfly garden. This was my 2nd stay here & I will def be back again! ##### Erika Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura May 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great facility with wonderful staff.
