Covid Safety at Blue Osa:
Message from the team at Blue Osa: The Osa Peninsula is located in a remote part of the country. Since the pandemic started, there have been little to no cases here, and currently, there are no cases.
Blue Osa is not only in a remote area, but nature has created a natural social bubble around us. People are happy to travel here because they can feel free and safe in this region.
At Blue Osa, all of our staff takes good care, andall of us are already vaccinated so we have created a really nice bubble with our Residents and guests. The best web page at this moment I could provide to you would be our Covid Safety protocols link: https://www.blueosa.com/our-covid19-policies/
Water
Our water is constantly tested to ensure your safety. Additionally, we provide filtered water in the dining area. As we do not allow open cups on our yoga deck, we do invite our guests to bring a water bottle, or they may purchase one in the Blue Osa store.
Power
Blue Osa does have standard North American power outlets.
Internet
Blue Osa offers a free WiFi service. This service is available in the main lounge area as well as the dining area. Since we practice mindfulness and silence in the mornings, the internet is turned off until 7:30 am. The internet is also turned off again at dinner from 6:30 until 7:15 pm. We do not have any computers available for use. We provide a great internet service, and though it is not common, please keep in mind that we are in the middle of the jungle and problems with the service may happen..
