"Great staff and clean rooms. There was a cancelled flight checking in as we were and the front desk staff was very efficient and still very kind. The restaurant and bar staff were very accommodating. Definitely a great place to stay if you need to be close to the airport in the morning."

"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.

"It is very convenient location right across from the airport. Free airport shuttle was very useful. Also they are very kind to provide us to go breakfast since we had to leave the hotel earlier than the breakfast time. The hotel was nice and clean."

"Staff was very accommodating and helpful. We had a very early flight but the hotel staff arranged for our transport and they were prompt for our pick up time which was so very appreciated. The hotel itself was much older than I expected, but very clean and the beds were comfortable. The area around the hotel is very busy, traffic wise, but there is lots of dining and shopping options nearby."

"I really enjoyed our week stay here. The place is very hilly, but we didn't mind so much. You have to make sure you snag chairs by the pool early because it gets HOT in the afternoon and you don't want to get stuck under the sun. The staff was all extremely friendly. I could tell some of them appreciated when you talked in Spanish, they seemed to not expect it from most people, but then got excited when you understood. The food was all great, our favorite was the Asian restaurant. The bartenders know what they are doing, we asked for random things and they always gave us something good!"

"Friendly staff "

"This was a bucket list trip for my husband and myself and lt exceeded our expectations! The food, staff, and resort were amazing. Now the room was top tier! It was expensive but worth every $. It set the bar high for our future vacations, since then we have taken 3 more vacations and we have loved everyone! I cant say enough about the Andaz and l recommend it every chance l get! 💯"

"I really enjoyed the regular appearance of a troop of monkeys and the many colorful birds. "
