Tranquil luxury at a reasonable price

Sorry I only had 2 days here but as it was my second visit I knew what to expect and was not disappointed. The remote location, on volcanic slopes, has been turned into a self-contained luxury resort with multiple hot spring baths and butterflies, humming birds and exotic plants aplenty. Don't come here looking for night life - unless it is lying in hot water watching a tropical starry sky.

Tolle Lage in wilder Natur

Das Hotel lag sehr weit weg von größeren Orten. Eine tolle Erfahrung, besonders auch der namensgebende blaue Fluss. In der Hotelbeschreibung stand damals, dass dort neue Appartements und Häuser entstehen sollen. Ob das so kommt, weiss ich natürlich nicht. Schön ist auch der Kolibri Garten und die Schmetterlingsfarm.
