Nayara Springs is, quite simply, exceptional! The setting is breathtaking, the rooms and amenities are luxurious, and the food at the restaurants was absolutely superb. The entire property is immaculately maintained, and our villa was cleaned to an exceptionally high standard every day.
But what truly makes this resort exceptional is the staff. Every single person we encountered, from reception and concierge staff who drive the golf carts, to the gardeners and maintenance staff, was warm, kind, patient and genuinely welcoming. There was not one negative interaction during our stay.
A special thank you to Levi, who took us on the Mistico Hanging Bridges tour. He was the perfect guide, always smiling, wonderfully warm and incredibly knowledgeable about the flora and fauna we encountered. His enthusiasm and kindness made the experience even more memorable.
Even when I had a small problem at checkout because my credit card PIN had expired, the staff could not have been more patient while I sorted it out with my bank. At no point did I feel rushed or uncomfortable.
Nayara Springs is the perfect place if you want luxury, peace, warmth and genuine hospitality. We will absolutely return. We cannot recommend it highly enough.

Absolutely stunning resort. The staff was incredible. The food was amazing. And it’s gorgeous. Would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend to others!
Do the night walk tour, the Arenal 1968 hike, and the hanging bridges walk.
One of the best hotel experiences- everything was impeccable from the staff to the food to the villa to the grounds. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional- even breaking out a flashlight and pulling over on the way to dinner to spot sloths high up in the trees. We went to Nayara for our honeymoon and we can’t wait to go back! We highly recommend the Springs (adults only) for a romantic getaway and for restaurants we tried Ayla, Asia Luna and La Terraza.
Amazing service, truly spectacular rooms, but the best is how it all blends into the natural environment- and every member of staff seems to truly appreciate this special environment and wants to share this with guests.
Everything about this place is top-notch. I was floored by the level of attentiveness and service provided by literally everyone we encountered...from the front desk staff, the cart drivers, the spa, the restaurants.... everything. The villas are gorgeous, spacious, and luxurious without seeming fussy. The hot springs pools outside each room are an absolute dream, and having our breakfast delivered and set up outside each morning was heaven. I could not recommend this place more. Go...you'll never want to leave.
Great location to relax. Very accommodating staff.

The room was exceptionally clean. I love that the housekeeping came at least twice a day, and that they turned down the room every night. The staff were all nice and meet all of our needs.
