Nayara Gardens

Spending four days at the Nayara Gardens was like being in paradise. The casita, the grounds, pools and the entire property was beautiful. The staff was friendly and very well trained. My family and I enjoyed every minute in this magical place.

We absolutely loved our stay at Nayara Gardens! The service was outstanding from start to finish, and every member of the staff made us feel genuinely welcome and cared for. The hotel completely exceeded our expectations in every way — from the beautiful surroundings to the attention to detail and exceptional hospitality. It was a truly unforgettable experience, and we can’t wait to return. Highly recommended!

Stunning ! The most wonderful magical place Loved every minute Stunning landscape, wonderful rooms, amazing wildlife and nature

Love this place! Our casita had a spectacular view of the Arenal Volcano and the plunge pool was awesome. Every staff member offered extraordinary service. We will definitely return!

Just got back from a week at Nayara Gardens and had a beautiful and relaxing vacation. Everything about this resort and our vacation there was excellent. We stayed in one of the casitas. We loved having our own completely private pool. Room was huge, modern and immaculately maintained by the excellent housekeeping staff. Loved the included and daily restocked stacks, fruit and beverages in the minibar (had soda, juice, beer, water and milk). Breakfast buffet was superb. We loved hiking the beautiful grounds and spotting the monkeys, turkeys, birds and sloths. Property is filled with hidden gems- hanging bridges, hidden paths, stunning flowers and plants to explore. The staff were excellent. Everyone was warm, friendly, possessional and attentive. On property restaurants, particularly La Terraza, Asia Luna and Ayla were great. Be sure to make reservations as they are strongly recommended at all the restaurants (although none were overcrowded). We did the Hanging Bridges tour and Penas Blancas Safari River Float tour both through the hotel and they were excellent. Also did our transfers through the hotel and they were seamless. You can use any of the three resorts many pools (just kids can't go to the adult only pools) and we made use of them as well as the on property hot springs. Our favorite was the quiet pool, which was relaxing and with a beautiful view. Want to give a particular shout outs to -Jafeth at the front desk, who greeted us warmly throughout our stay and made the effort to know us by name by the second day. -Sebastien at La Terraza who was a great waiter and always on point as well as Cesar and his whole team at La Terraza, where we had a great breakfast every day (omelet guy was amazing!) and two superb dinners. -Harley and the whole team at Ayla for amazing middle eastern food, warm hospitality and memorable evenings. Thanks for an amazing Pura Vida week in Costa Rica!
