The staff and service was impeccable. The spa experience was excellent. Marlene is the best nail technician ever. She gave my mom and I the best manicure and pedicure we have ever had. A few things that would greatly improve this hotel is better lighting in the rooms as it's difficult to see at night. Also, the black paint on the walls is very unattractive. A lighter brighter color would be so much better. The food menu could be more diverse and have more casual options. Overall ,our experience was still excellent and we hope to return. Thank you Rio Perdido.

I am a Mexican national residing in the US and travel two to three times per year, however, I have never encountered such good customer service. To say the staff was "excellent" at their work is an understatement. They make you feel at home, from the hostess, the concierge, the drivers, waiters, masseuse, bartender, etc. They go above and beyond. The place is a piece of paradise on earth. The only things to keep in mind when coming is that the hotel is remote, at least one hour from the Liberia airport depending on traffic. There is a lot to do at the facility, like tubing, hiking, hot springs, pool, massages. The hikes are strenuous, the hot springs are HOT, and the massages are amazing. The menu is the same throughout the week with the daily special plates, which are all delicious. They have an in-house chef and baker that can work with your requests, I had a cake made for my wife on her birthday and it was amazing. I have nothing but amazing things to say about the "tocó" people. Fell in love with this country!

The ultimate glamping experience of my life. The private mini house was amazing and super comfortable, quiet, clean.. couldn’t have asked for more on that. The river is close so you can access everything within walking. The hanging bridge was fabulous. We did the zip line and it was a must do experience, super fun and super safe. The men who operate it are meticulous about safety while also being fun and funny. The pools were nothing too fantastic but nice. Free breakfast was excellent. Would highly recommend.

This is an amazing resort and would highly recommend. We had great service at the restaurant and bar from Ronald, Alex and team. Staff was super friendly and makes sure everything is perfect. Tubing, Ziplining and Cocktail Class were super fun and would do again. Great hikes and amazing thermal river. 10 out of 10.

Like your own little retreat
I wanted to give my Dad a nice 2 day getaway, and Rio Perdido was amazing. From the staff to the property, everything was perfect. The rooms were eco design, and the bedding, just amazing comfort! The restaurant's food was excellent and they catered to our dietary needs (vegan) with ease. The property is big, so it never felt crowded and we couldn't believe we had the natural hot spring river to ourselves as well as rarely saw anyone on the well kept trails. I am definitely returning and would like to plan one of my retreats here as it felt exactly like your own slice of paradise.
Hot Spring pool if you want to skip the hike to the hot spring river.
