Even that the road to get there is not in amazing conditions, if you have a 4x4 - tall car is totally worth it! The place and the nature around it is amazing, you feel like a VIP the staff is amazingly friendly and the food is incredible, we had so much fun, so many things to do that time is not enough. The nature, the peace and the atmosphere is just incredible. 1000000% recommend it.

Property and grounds were beautiful. Very friendly staff. Not a whole lot of nearby food options though - if you want to eat outside of the hotel.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at blue River. The rooms were huge and super clean. We really appreciated the coffee maker every morning. We did the zip line tour with blue River and it was great. The spa pools were very relaxing with tables and chairs at each of them. there were no surprises with the bookings.

Spotless room with wonderful bed, lovely amenities (coffee/coffee maker, glass drinking glasses, mini fridge) and friendly, gracious staff in every position throughout the property. The pools were relaxing and/or rejuvenating (depending on the temperature), the grounds are beautifully maintained and the food is plentiful and delicious. Thank you for a lovely and relaxing stay!

L’endroit est tout simplement un bijoux caché. Effectivement, la route pour s’y rendre n’est pas évidente, mais ça en vaut tellement la peine. SUPER propre, bien entretenu, beaucoup d’animaux, nourriture très bonne au restaurant, personne aimable. Rien à dire de négatif, séjour plus que parfait. Ça vaut VRAIMENT le détour :)

The entire resort feels like a botanical tropical garden. Absolutely stunning flowers, trees. And a butterfly house to top it off. The staff was amazingly helpful in organizing day trips and we had a great time.

The rooms, dining area and facilities were in excellent condition. The range of pools with different temperatures was fantastic as the weather changed. Food was freshly cooked and healthy. The tours available were fantastic for the kids, and the dinosaur tour had some really good animatronics for the jurassic park fans

This was one of the most unique and amazing place my wife and I have stayed. My kids absolutely had a blast. The adventures around this property are a lot of fun at a reasonable price. Make sure to bring bug spray.
