Amazing experience! The hotel was breathtaking and the staff went above and beyond to always make sure we were happy!

Taylor

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this hotel and most of all the staff. Every one went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy the entire time. The food was EXCELLENT, we had fresh towels in our room twice a day, the front staff addressed me by first name from the second we pulled up, and the private tours are absolutely worth the extra cost (request seyres!!!!) Every area of this hotel looked beautiful, lush and impeccably clean.

So MANY Things. First off, Wine Lovers worried about finding quality wine in Costa Rica, fear not! There is a wine bar on site, with a great selection of wines (also the restaurants on site have a good selection as well). Second, the staff here is incredible. There are not enough kind words to say about how great they are. The cocktail selection is great, and the breakfast at Nayara Springs (connected to Arenal Nayara, effectively if you stay on one side of the property, you have free range access of both sides of the property), is AMAZING, and you get free mimosas, and have an unlimited choice of what and how much you want to eat for breakfast (for free!). The pools are lovely, there are stations with umbrellas, bug spray, and sunscreen around the property. The hotel left us a dinner in our room because we arrived after all of the restaurants closed. It was the perfect hotel experience in the rainforest. Could not have asked for a better, more restful trip.

The food was amazing, wine bar was to die for. The rooms were amazing with private pool. Very clean. One phone call and the golf cart was there to pick you up. Good activities in the night all at the resort. Being immersed in nature and an all around good experience.

Steve

The grounds of Nyara are beautiful. There are many pools and beautiful gardens, but I was doing a lot of site-seeing, so we didn't really use the grounds. The restaurants had incredible food.

Mary
