“Once again - amazing week at Blue Osa”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 25, 2013

Last year I spent a wonderful week at Blue Osa and I just returned from another week long visit. The Blue Osa experience is so unique and the hosts and the staff are so wonderful - they are relaxed, gracious, friendly and amazingly good at what they do. Marie's cooking is almost too good to be true - the food is beautiful and delicious. She obviously loves what she does and it shows in the food as well as the atmosphere in her kitchen. The rooms and grounds are impeccably maintained and the beautiful beach is just icing on the cake. And last but not least, the guests this place attracts seem to always just be wonderful, friendly folks.

“Paradise at Blue Osa”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 15, 2013

My 20 year old son and I recently spent a week at Blue Osa where we were completely charmed by every aspect of our stay. From our cabina to the lap pool, the ocean to Marie's divine cuisine, the great staff to the great company of the guests, we felt as if we had walked into a place where everything was right with the world. The pure beauty of the grounds, the scarlet macaws flying overhead, the monkeys at the edge of the forest all conspired to lull us into a dream of paradie. As a longtime yoga practictioner I found my heart widening with gratitude at being able to practice in such a beautiful and healing environment and Paul, who was both our host and yoga instructor that week, was amazing on both ends: skilled, friendly, funny, kind. Bodywork by Jesus was magnificent. I would return to Blue Osa just to have more time with him!!! There is so much about Blue Osa I wish I could have packed up and brought home with me!

“Exceeded our expectations”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 7, 2013

Blue Osa exceeded our expectations in every way. From the warmth and humor of the hosts (Aaron and Paul) and all the staff, the quality and compfort of our room, and the amazingly delicious and beautifully presented food (Thank you Marie).
We went for a yoga retreat and were so very fortunate to have guided sessions, which were accesible to any ability level, with outstanding, caring teachers.
Our room looked onto lush tropical gardens, very private, with the sounds of the ocean and nature. Absolutely awesome.
And you really do not have to leave Blue Osa, there is so much to enjoy there. From swimming in the ocean or pool, taking long walks and hikes, viewing wildlife (we saw many monkeys, parrots, and birds), kayaking, surfing, to simply relaxing, unwinding, and lounging. They have heavenly massages and facials also.
If you do go on any tours, make sure to go to the Animal Sanctuary which includes a boat trip through waters where we saw dozens of dolphins swimming and playing, It was a magical excursion.
This is an exquisite yet informal resort, with terrific people who really care about the guests and their surroundings. We can not recommend Blue Osa highly enough. We hope to return again soon.
- RJ and Paula

To our new extended Blue Osa Family,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a well thought out and detailed review. Knowing from our conversations that Blue Osa was one place you have chosen to come to on your world tour, we feel very blessed to have you stop by along the way.

One of the hardest things to do is to exceed people's expectations let alone meet them. It gives as great pleasure to see our guests melt into all that Blue Osa has to offer. We really invite all of our guests to just sit back and open their hearts to take it all in, and that was clearly something you guys came to Blue Osa with. Thank you for sharing all.

Have a great time on the next step and we look forward to seeing you again.

Blessings
Yogi Aaron
