Blue Dream Hotel

I loved this place! It was awesome, great prices, fantastic service, clean and organized rooms, beautiful view of the ocean from my room, Nicola and Joselyne are fantastic hosts. And it was close to everything I wanted and needed to go in my vehicle. Definitely will come back.

Super nice school and instructors! Definitely recommend! I’ve done my first kite lesson here and I’m very very happy with it

Great hotel for kitesurfing nearby. Friendly people and good vibes

What a fantastic hotel and kiting set up. Nicola and Joselyne have built a wonderful thing on Bahia Salinas and as a novice kiter I could not have asked for a better experience. Coaching and hotel crew, Fred, Dominick, Cici, Javi and Lena were so good. We made a lot of progress and are leaving on a high. There were lots of experienced kiters there too and they too raved about this place and the conditions. It also happens to be in a part of CR with an abundance of natural beauty with world class beaches on the leeward side of the peninsula just a few minutes from Blue Dream.

I had a great time at Blue dream hotel! I took kite surfing lessons from Alex for the 4 days I stayed, he is a phenomenal instructor. The blue dream hotel is like a little town with everything you need, restaurant, bar, people, beach, views. I plan on returning next year!

Spent 9 days at this hotel. The food was affordable in comparison to the surrounding area and very good. Excellent staff and very friendly. Some on the best beaches within 10 minute drive. Bungalows are fantastic for price. Remember this is ment to be affordable so don't expect much sound insulation from the room next to you, if that is what your looking for then other suites may be better. I traveled with 3 kids and they always felt safe and welcomed. We even got to see wild monkeys one day outside the balcony.

For $50 a night, we had a very comfortable bed, a nice shower, and a beautiful view - the accommodations were honestly much more comfortable than I had expected. No AC, but with fans, the temperature was pleasant in the evening. The room we stayed in was at the top of a very steep hill, which I mention in case you have mobility issues. The only other downside if privacy is a concern, is that depending on your room position, you could regularly have other visitors walking past your room, and you'll mostly want to be keeping the doors/curtains open due to the heat. The staff were all very friendly and able to support a multilingual clientele. The hotel is not right on the beach, so it was very nice that Nicola and the instructors provide transportation to and from. Our kiting instructor, Fred, was so wonderful and exceptionally patient with us as true beginners. As a woman who is not very athletic, I was honestly really intimidated to try this sport, but I had a great time. We took lessons as a couple and after 3 days of 3 hours lessons, we were able to attempt the water start. Our progress was slow, but Fred was always encouraging and able to give concrete feedback without us feeling embarrassed. Learning the kite control and body dragging was fun in and of itself!

We stayed here for a month in Nov. Awesome, we loved the people and the scene. Everyone is so friendly. Took kiting and wing lessons. The instructors were great. They had a fabulous cook during the time we were here, so we hardly ate any where else, but they will also give you recommendations to the best places around. The only downside I can think of is that there is really nothing close by except the beaches. So if you don't have a vehicle it is a bit more of a challenge to get around. Looking forward to our next trip here.
