Blue Dream Kite Boarding Resort Costa Rica recensioner

My wife and I spent 9 nights at Blue Dream Kiteboarding Resort on a kitesurf trip to Costa Rica. We had a great time there. People go there mainly for kitesurfing, spend most of the time together on the spot and share breakfast and dinner. This makes Blue Dream Resort look more like a kitesurf camp than a standard hotel and builds a great community spirit around kitesurf. No doubt that departure to the spot (around 9:00 AM) on the platform of a small truck is a highlight of the stay. In such a context you are certainly more willing to turn a blind eye to some deficiencies in organisation or service (e.g. bread or fruits sometimes not available at breakfast, some dishes quickly running out at dinner). However, management should definitely pay more attention to room and property maintenance. The 2 different rooms we stayed in - the Junior Suite and the Suite which offers a fantastic view over Salinas Bay - clearly needed a refresher as wall paintings and furniture were tired. For its relaxed, friendly and laid-back atmosphere I don't hesitate to recommend Blue Dream Resort while advising that it should not be judged by the yardstick of standard hotels.

This is a special spot for those looking to be immersed in untouched nature and the simplicity that comes along with it. The resort is built on a hill and blends in with the surroundings which are mostly farms. The rooms are small and quite simple so don't expect to spend much time in the room, but the view of bahia salinas is spectacular. This hotel feels like a family, where everyone hangs out together, the fun staff, guests or visitors and kiting is the common ground. The beach spot is a short walk or fun truck ride away and the wind is always blowing. The special treat is kiting with turtles and pelicans every day. It is so easy to forget the world outside of blue dream after a few days. I will be back.

Blue Dream kite school at Playa Copal was a great introduction to kite boarding! Visited in early April and the conditions, location and atmosphere were all fantastic. Being new to kite boarding we took half day lessons for 3 days and then we were up and going for the rest of our trip kiting on our own with rental equipment! The instructors at Blue Dream were excellent. Much thanks to Nicola, Zulty and Lisa for sharing their passion for the sport, their knowledge and patience, all of which are invaluable to beginning kite students! Really great people, as were many of the fellow kiters we met during our trip. The learning curve is steep but this was a great environment to learn with warm water, consistent wind every day and even some strong and gusty conditions that made for great practice. Highly recommend wearing booties to help protect your feet from the sting rays just in case. We had no issues, they aren't anything to worry about but do be aware they are around. That being said, as far as sea creatures go, you are far more likely to see sea turtles! At the beach, which is just a short drive down the road from the hotel, there is a shaded area with hammocks to lounge in while taking breaks. Both the beach and hotel have a very laid back vibe. We stayed in one of the bungalows and found the accommodations to be simple but very sufficient. The restaurant serves decent food as well. We had an excellent time staying at the Blue Dream kite school, learned how to kite and met some great people along the way. We will definitely stay at the Blue Dream and kite at Playa Copal again! Thanks guys!

Of course, the view of the ocean and islands is incredible. I had read the reviews about this place and knew what to expect. My room was very clean but basic. My shower door was broken and would not slide correctly. Small bathroom. Two hooks to hang your clothes. No shampoo. I am not a kiteboarder so the restaurant’s meal schedule and offerings did not match my desires. Every employee there was friendly and helpful. I liked sitting outside in the comfortable chairs or lying in a hammock enjoying the view and talking with my neighbors. The price is right for what you get.

Super recomendado, la atención es maravillosa, la comida deliciosa, las habitaciones muy cómodas. La vista espectacular, las playas cercanas son una belleza, los precios super accesibles. Sin duda alguna, volveremos a este lugar a menudo

Nous avons choisi cet hôtel du à sa proximité avec le spot de Kite et son lien avec. Hôtel roits, pas de problème, mais pas quand c’est sale, avec plein d’insectes, un lit Avec des ressorts apparents. La chambre ressemblait à un four. Piscine sans eau et cuisine qui ne sert plus que des pizzas. Malheureusement le Covid est passé par là. Allez tout de même à Bahia Salinas car le spot est grandiose et l’école très pro.
