The most enchanting property. Situated amongst the lush backdrop, nayara gardens is the Perfect hybrid of luxury travel whilst preserving the gorgeous rainforest and indigenous wildlife.

From the second my boyfriend and I arrived we knew this was an incredible place. We showed up a bit earlier than check in time so a staff member took us on a golf cart tour of the entire grounds of the resort, in which we happened to see a sloth within the first hour of being there!! Each staff member we encountered was not only friendly and personable but extremely knowledgeable and passionate about everything plants, animals etc! It was honestly impressive. Staying at Nayara is the absolute best thing you can do for yourself if you are seeking luxury relaxation immersed in nature, surrounded by Arenal volcano views and wildlife. We stayed in a Casita within Nayara Gardens and the room was absolutely beautiful and very clean/cozy with arenal views I wasn't expecting to have from our deck. Phonomenal experience all around I cannot wait to come back as this will be a home I come to visit each trip back to costa rica.

Great breakfast and friendly staff. The environment is very clean.

The staff is extremely helpful and go out of their way to accommodate your requests. Villa was superb. Internet strong for working and taking video calls. Food absolutely amazing. Spa facilities are excellent.

This place is truly magical. The staff are extremely attentive to all of you’re needs, and they pay very close attention to even the small details. Highlights of this truly luxurious resort: lovely restaurants with great views, amazingly tranquil hot springs, beautiful hiking trails within the resort where we were able to spot toucans/monkeys/sloths, the rooms are an absolute delight with a beautiful view of the forests and Arenal volcano mountain. Special shout out to Jean Carlos and Kristel for the warm welcome and help with reservations including volcano/ hanging bridge tour, coffee and chocolate your etc, Andrea our amazing tour guide for the volcano/ hanging bridge/ waterfall tour, Roberto who manned the golf cart several times for us through the resort and was very hospitable, Eric & Maikol in the restaurants took great care of us. We loved this place and were pampered all the way! Pura vida!!

The breakfast was amazing!! The grounds were GORGEOUS. I cannot rave enough about this property. I have traveled to 50 countries and have stayed at five star properties all over the world and I can promise you this place is something else! Cannot wait to go back. The friendliness of the staff was extraordinary. The vibe was so wonderful I hated to leave.

The highlight of our stay was the staff, who were incredibly attentive and made us feel very welcome from the start. Special thanks to Jairo, hotel manager, and to Jose, from the wine bar restaurant, who was by far the best waiter and service we had in our 3-week honeymoon!

Breakfast was delicious, the golf carts taking you around the property were really useful.

They had covid safety procedures which made us feel comfortable.

Phenomenal hotel. In every sense. Service, friendliness, comfort, cleanliness, amenities, food, drinks, grounds, venues....all amazing.
