Catherine, United States of America

This is a very relaxed and individual hotel with beautiful rooms/bungalows/villas, pools, spa, and restaurants. Great to relax. We especially liked the beautiful villa, the spa, and the hotel's own coffee roastery.

Robert, United States of America

Friendly and helpful staff, beautiful rooms, amazing food, excellent overall. Best hotel I have ever experienced

Thomas, United States of America

We had a fantastic minimoon here. Our favorite part was the double outdoor shower and the private plunge pool. The food is okay. We stayed for two nights which was perfect amount to lounge around the hotel.

Matt, United States of America

I loved the villa! The free laundry and free calls gave it a plus! Mini bar snacks were also free! The spring pool was surrounded by lush forest beautiful!

Latefah, Kuwait

The villas are enormous and cleverly arranged to ensure complete privacy. The site is steep but golf carts are readily available and the staff couldn’t be more helpful. There are 2 restaurants and the range of food on offer is good. It’s expensive to stay here but we felt it justified its price tag.

Elizabeth, United Kingdom

We enjoyed the waiting staffs attitude towards caring for their customers especially in the breakfast restaurants and Diana in the coffee bar. We also loved the jacuzzi with the room and the Nostalgia wine tasting bar with Jonathan’s excellent knowledge and manner. We loved the fresh produce used at breakfast and the comprehensive menu with great tasing coffee. The hotel is in a beautiful setting amongst rainforest and near to volcano Arenal but if you want to see this then choose the month you are going to stay carefully as it is only totally visible for approx 70 days and in our 4 day stay we had low cloud and mist. The coffee tutorial with Diana from the cafe is an excellent thing to do.

Rachel, United Kingdom

Fantastic staff, made our honeymoon extra special. Exceptional food & great cocktails. Our guide (Andreas) was brilliant & went above & beyond to make trips memorable. Adult only areas are quiet & relaxing. It’s expensive but a great choice in the Arenal area for a special occasion.

Philip, United Kingdom

Wow everything was great from the moment of check in to the great fabulous villa to the delicious sushi bar to the amazing surrounding and friendly staff everything is high standard, honestly I always prefer to stay in four seasons hotel and this place have the same high quality with more benefits

An Inside Look at Nayara Springs

Nayara Springs is a new ultra-exclusive boutique hotel located in the Arenal Volcano National Park, host to one of the world’s highest concentration of tropical plants and wildlife. Sitting on an unspoiled mountain, the cluster of secluded luxury villas are surrounded by the lush vegetation of Costa Rica’s pristine rainforest, and bounded by a creek and underground mineral thermal springs. A place of breathtaking natural beauty, Nayara Springs appeals to a wide range of travellers because of the many things to do in the hotel and the Arenal area –including the fine art of doing nothing at all.

The various food venues change their menus only every few months. For a stay of 5-7 days, the sameness is somewhat problematic. And while there are a number of different venues, many were booked up when we tried to book.

“Beautiful hotel and great stay but not perfect due to some (not) hot spring water issues.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Springs Villas
- • Stayed 2 nights
Our private pool was only warm in the beginning. We expected "hot springs" but when we arrived they were not hot (maybe warm) and on the next day they were cold. We had several calls and discussion with the staff and found out that there was a problem with providing hot spring water somehow. The unsatisfying thing was that they did not relocate us or offered a compensation by themselves but started to argue how difficult it was to provide that high standard "here in the junge". While I understand that this is indeed a challenging logistic task, I have no understanding in not getting what I payed for. After clearly complaining about this and asking for any compensation we got a free dinner, which was a great dinner. However, the situation worried me while I was there and I spend a couple of hours in figuring out why the water was not warmer, calling staff, etc. instead of enjoying the valuable time. I also think that the hotel should renovate their small jungle trails they have in the upper part of their own property. There were some old, abandoned buildings on the trail and some old fences etc. I still think that Nayara is one of the nicest hotels in Costa Rica but at least for us the 2 days were not worth the money of 1800 dollars as it was not perfect.
This is a very relaxed and individual hotel with beautiful rooms/bungalows/villas, pools, spa, and restaurants. Great to relax. We especially liked the beautiful villa, the spa, and the hotel's own coffee roastery.

“Beautiful setting and villas were just like the pictures but just needs the finer details addressing”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Springs Villas
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
We didn’t like the TV not having channels as advertised and one night getting an electric shock from the wiring on a bedside table lamp. There is also a very old looking scruffy walk through some signed trees at the top of the hotel grounds. To be such a top resort they just need to attend to some finer details like this. Around the pools a lot of top resorts will provide cold or warm towels, taster fruits and small sorbets at intervals. We paid for breakfast to be included but for the price we paid some hotels would include a club lounge or an afternoon tea time or evening canapés.
We enjoyed the waiting staffs attitude towards caring for their customers especially in the breakfast restaurants and Diana in the coffee bar. We also loved the jacuzzi with the room and the Nostalgia wine tasting bar with Jonathan’s excellent knowledge and manner.
