This property is under development and is still in the first phase, so be prepared to drive through some work areas. Otherwise, quiet and beautiful property. ##### Stephen Stayed 14 nights in Dec 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Rinat 6 Jan 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Dear Expedia Customer Support, I am writing to express my extreme disappointment with the property I booked through your platform. The listing for Rio Blanco Hot Springs was completely misleading and did not reflect the actual condition of the property. This is not a hotel or resort as advertised—it is an active construction site. There are no amenities, no proper reception, and only 2-3 partially completed rooms that are barely habitable. The site lacks even basic infrastructure like proper roads or dining facilities. It is unacceptable that this property is being marketed and rented to guests in such a state. The current condition of the property is not only misleading but also raises serious concerns about safety and comfort. I urge you to address this matter immediately by removing the listing and issuing a full refund for my stay. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue. I look forward to your response. ##### Rinat ### 8/10 Good #### Luis David 19 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication En general el lugar está muy bien y es muy pacífico lo cual es lo que más me agradó. El único tema negativo es que las áreas del hotel no están terminadas, y pueden ser inseguras. Si volvería, pero no por más de una noche. ##### Luis David Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Odette 23 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Disliked: Amenities Petites notes négatives: peu de pression d’eau dans la douche et eau trop froide; pas d’endroit pour s’asseoir sauf les chaises en bois (pas de sofa ou divan). Les hôtes sont super gentils, attentionnés, la vue est à couper le souffle. ##### Odette Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pablo 18 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### Pablo Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Villa Lapas Jungle Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Villa-Lapas-Jungle-Village.h1330482.Hotel-Information) > > [Natural Drake Bay Hotel Boutique](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Drake-Bay-Hotels-Natural-Drake-Bay-Boutique-Hotel.h100431716.Hotel-Information) > > [Kura Boutique Hotel Member of the Cayuga Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Kura-Boutique-Hotel.h5637504.Hotel-Information) > > [Ecolirios Boutique Hotel & Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Guacimo-Hotels-Ecolirios-Boutique-Hotel-And-Spa.h32864539.Hotel-Information) > > [El Remanso Rainforest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-El-Remanso-Lodge.h11640675.Hotel-Information) > > [Cristal Ballena Boutique Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Cristal-Ballena-Boutique-Hotel-Spa.h1386896.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hideaway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Samara-Hotels-The-Hideaway-Hotel.h11027376.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tranquilo Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Drake-Bay-Hotels-The-Tranquilo-Lodge-All-Inclusive.h36517873.Hotel-Information) > > [Makanda by the Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quepos-Hotels-Makanda-By-The-Sea.h2328562.Hotel-Information) > > [Kenaki Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cahuita-Hotels-Kenaki-Lodge.h8460922.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenal Waterfall Lodge Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-GreenLagoon-Arenal-Waterfall-Villas.h1823811.Hotel-Information) > > [Costa Rica Surf Camp by SUPERbrand](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Costa-Rica-Surf-Camp-By-SUPERbrand.h17702230.Hotel-Information) > > [Koora Hotel by Sandglass](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Hotel-Aguti-Lodge-Reserve.h33594530.Hotel-Information) > > [Maquenque Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boca-Arenal-Hotels-Maquenque-Eco-Lodge.h4147006.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Rio Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Villas-Rio-Mar.h66109.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Amavi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Hotel-Amavi.h103597450.Hotel-Information) > > [Selva Verde Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarapiqui-Hotels-Selva-Verde-Lodge.h4139642.Hotel-Information) > > [Costa Paraiso](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Costa-Paraiso.h38744058.Hotel-Information) > > [La Cusinga Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-La-Cusinga-Lodge.h9711849.Hotel-Information) > > [Tiki Villas Rainforest Lodge & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Tiki-Villas-Rainforest-Lodge-Spa.h8126251.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Luna Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Casa-Luna-Hotel-Spa.h2305532.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Escape Caribeño](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Viejo-De-Talamanca-Hotels-Hotel-Escape-Caribeno.h12310729.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Sarapiqui Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarapiqui-Hotels-La-Quinta-Sarapiqui-Lodge.h18261717.Hotel-Information) > > [Toad Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arenal-Hotels-Toad-Hall-Hotel.h11685037.Hotel-Information) > > [Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Samara-Hotels-Azura-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h20586535.Hotel-Information) > > [Lapa Rios Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-Lapa-Rios-Lodge.h1447895.Hotel-Information) > > [Iguana Lodge Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-Iguana-Lodge-Spa-Beach-Resort.h6882446.Hotel-Information) > > [Hideaway Rio Celeste](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Katira-Hotels-Hotel-Rio-Celeste-Hideaway.h3858533.Hotel-Information) > > [Vista Ballena](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Vista-Ballena.h10617842.Hotel-Information) ---
