This is the most magical place! When you’re done frolicking in all the different pools nestled amongst the most beautiful gardens and taking advantage of all the unique and free amenities and sites on the property you can have a delicious dinner and cocktails on site. I can’t wait to go back! It’s a rocky ride from Liberia though, make sure you rent a 4x4!

The resort is amazing and unique. The grounds are breathtaking. The cabins are awesome. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is lots to do. The wifi is spotty and the road to the property is very tricky to drive on - a 4-wheel drive vehicle is recommended with an experienced driver at the wheel. Once you get to the resort, though, you’ll be happy you came.

Blue River Resort is a really lovely place, the gardens are beautiful and a nice walk even in the rain (it IS a rain forest - so you have to expect it!). There are different pools, both hot and fresh water, very nice to float in the heat! The restaurant has good food, excellent service! The rooms are nice, like a cottage, very large and quite comfortable.

We booked a villa. The water in the shower was cold, every time we opened the faucet, the electricity flickered. We had a power outage. The curtains in the room fell from a height. Only one restaurant was open and they hurried to close it to go home. We really didn't enjoy ourselves, we ran away early in the morning

Good afternoon dear Ilanit:Thanks for your visit and feedback, too bad you “ran away early in the morning” you didn’t have to do it. If there is something bad, or not working or that you dislike for any reason, all you needed to do is talk, we are here to listen.We are sorry about the curtain, somehow it got loose and it fell, thank you very much. Its not in our hands to control the electricity going on and off all the time, its in the hands of ICE, a government-controlled entity. In these remote areas in Costa Rica, in the rainforest, we get affected by extreme weather conditions like heavy winds, storms, lightning and heavy rains, creating problems like burning TVS, routers or paralyzing the water heater systems like the one in your room; once you told us we fixed it.We thank you for your time and feedback.

The shower was with low water pressure and went hot and cold all the time. The biggest complaint we had was that we stayed 2 nights which was good but the food in the restaurant was the same menu, very limited and expensive. Need more variety and more options as this location was very remote and this really was our only option for food. Beautiful grounds, loved the butterfly garden and natural sauna and mineral pools.

My wife and I stayed 4 nts at the Blue River Resort and absolutely loved the place. The grounds were a paradise as advertised, our casita was perfect, and the resort staff was friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was great as we expected, with the meals on par with fine dining establishments and in an open air environment which we loved. We did not have any issues with mosquitoes at the resort or on any of the hikes/tours we took. And though it was hot and muggy in Liberia this time of year, we were in heaven at 70-80 degrees the entire time with sporadic rains as you'd expect in a tropical rain forest. We wish we could have stayed longer, but will definitely be back for more adventures. Make sure you take in as many of the tours as you're comfortable doing (as some do require being in good hiking shape), and they have the best zip lines we've ever been on taking you over an amazing twin waterfall.

Incredible Experience
This resort is incredible. The grounds are lush and meticulously maintained. The staff is friendly and the food was great. There’s plenty to do with several excursions offered. It’s an amazing place to get away and reset. We swam in the thermal pools, rode horses, did a waterfall hike, got a massage, explored the gardens and did a yoga class. Every night we fell asleep to the sounds of the jungle. What an incredible experience!

The property was beautiful and the staff attentive. However, it was very over priced. The food choices were very limited and it was not very good. I developed GI issues my 3rd day that immediately went away when I returned home. I also learned that staff often does not get their tips if they are put in a charge card. Anyone renting a car should be warned that the roads there are rough and unpaved do a 4x4 would be the better option.

The road is in good condition, suitable for any kind of car and its owned and maintained by the Costar Rican government. In regards to the tips, we are always very prompt to what is given to them in tips in credit cards, we want them to be happy and motivated by this incentive.
