Nayara Gardens continues to exceed expectations. This is our 5th time visiting, and each time just gets better & better. The staff always goes above & beyond to make us feel as though we're the most important guests, and we feel blessed beyond compare. It is most definitely a place we're glad to have discovered, and will continue to visit again for a long while.

The resort was simply exceptional. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. The room was well designed and very comfortable. The most amazing thing is that the resort is very well blended in a rainforest, so that we could just spot the wild sloths and monkeys while in the resort! The hot springs were also amazing. Thank you for making our stay at Costco Rica so incredible!

Nayara Gardens is one of the most beautiful, serene, and lovely places that I have ever visited (as far as resort, hotels, etc. go of course) - and was THE PERFECT location for the first four nights of our honeymoon. From even before we arrived, we knew were going to luxuriate while also being immersed in nature - and Nayara provided that and more. From the beautiful casitas (even more beautiful in person with so many lovely details), the amazing grounds (you're able to visit the whole site, which includes Nayara Springs and Nayara Tented Camp), to especially the people (so many great conversations with the very personable folks that work there along with the super relaxed guests). Everything was perfect and an amazing way to begin our journey through Costa Rica. Cannot recommend enough!

It was a great experience. The whole staff was professional but also kind and friendly. They were into all the details. The amenities are great, the food is excellent, the views are breathtaking. I would return over and over again.

From the moment we arrived, we were completely enchanted. We were greeted with a chilled vanilla-mint towel and a refreshing Costa Rican mule before being escorted to our dreamy casita overlooking the volcano — absolute perfection. We were celebrating our anniversary, and the staff went above and beyond to make it special. Every single person we encountered was warm, kind, and genuinely eager to make sure we were well cared for. The attention to detail here is unmatched. The complimentary breakfast was incredible — it begins with fresh coconut water and offers an array of local and international favorites. The mini-bar and laundry service are both complimentary (what a treat!), and our casita featured indoor and outdoor showers, a private plunge pool, and nightly turndown service. The resort is surrounded by lush rainforest, so there’s endless wildlife watching right from your terrace — toucans, sloths, and more. Every corner of Nayara Gardens feels magical, luxurious, and peaceful. This was truly one of the best resort experiences we’ve ever had. We left feeling pampered, relaxed, and already dreaming of our next visit.

We stayed in a casita with a plunge pool, and it was amazing! The view of the volcano was breathtaking, the beds were super comfortable, and both the indoor and outdoor showers were fantastic. Service was top-notch with so many thoughtful touches. I spilled coffee on my shirt on the way there, and the staff kindly offered to launder it for free — such great hospitality! The pools were beautiful with comfy lounge chairs, and the gardens around the hot springs were lush and relaxing. The property is large, but we enjoyed walking everywhere (golf carts are available if you prefer). Breakfast was delicious with lots of variety, and I loved being handed a fresh coconut each morning. Dinner at the Italian restaurant was also excellent. Overall, Nayara Gardens is pure magic — luxurious, welcoming, and surrounded by nature. Highly recommend!
