The breakfast was incredible. The staff was beyond friendly and accommodating. We were completely taken care of the entire time. We would love to stay here again. It was the highlight of our time in Costa Rica!
United States of AmericaImpeccable service, loved JeanCarlos and Ivania at the spa!
United States of AmericaThis resort thinks of everything you could possibly want on a vacation. Rooms are cleaned in the AM and a turn down service is provided in the PM. The restaurants were beautiful, the service exceeded our expectations, and the food was outstanding. My boyfriend and I have been raving about the food since we got home. The new spring water pools (multiple hot pools and one cold pool) in the Nayara Tented Camps section is a must do! So relaxing and the area is breathtaking. There are so many things to do at the resort alone. Rain or shine (it will rain quite a bit, You’re in the rainforest!) this resort is perfect!
United States of AmericaBreakfast buffet, the walking trails, beautiful flowers, generous staff and for making our anniversary so special!
United States of AmericaThe breakfast selection was diverse and very tasty! The staff are also very attentive
United States of AmericaEverything. Lovely room, friendly and super accommodating staff, great food, beautiful grounds.
United States of AmericaNayara 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.
United States of AmericaThis place was incredible! Our view was unreal from our room. The bungalow was huge. The resort was spectacular. Nayara exceeded all expectations!
United States of AmericaAll 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!
United States of AmericaI’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!
