to get started.

Nayara far exceeded our expectations. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, the staff is amazing. So friendly and helpful with everything. The grounds are so beautiful with flowers and wildlife. You cant forget the view of the volcano almost everywhere you turn. We booked one excursion which was so easy. All meals were amazing and so much to chose from. I can't recommend this resort enough.

This place was incredible! Our view was unreal from our room. The bungalow was huge. The resort was spectacular. Nayara exceeded all expectations!

Kynlon

All locations for every restaurant were amazing! Breakfast was yummy! Loved the tropical juice selection and the delicious breads! On our last day, the staff served us 2 "bon voyage" mimosas that made us feel like Honeymooners all over again!

I’m an avid traveler and this was my fourth international travel of the year. I have stayed at very good facilities but the Nayara Resort is truly an incredible facility. From its natural beauty to its amenities, staff, restaurants, quality of food and everything in between. We were a group of 13 people that went for a yoga retreat and every single of of us was superbly impressed with the Nayara Resort. Definitely a 10!

Fariha

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 place is an absolutely paradise. The gardens are stunning, the villas enormous with private jungle hot spring pools and extremely comfortable beds. Service is top notch, every single staff member is sincerely interested to make you feel at home. Big plus the delicious breakfast with a view to the volcano. We wish we could have stayed longer. NB: We got upgraded to a spring villa therefore, the review applies to the Nayara Springs hotel.
