Location
Deep in the rainforest of the northern highlands of Costa Rica, Nayara Springs is located 10 minutes from the settlement of La Fortuna de San Carlos. From the resort, there are stunning views of the local volcano: Volcán Arenal.
Accommodation
The 35 villas of Nayara Springs are identical in format, but when the recipe is so perfect there is no need to vary it. From a kingsize four-poster bed you will look out through a huge wall of windows to a private terrace complete with your own geothermal pool and lush vegetation beyond. The styling of the interiors is natural and relaxing; hardwood floors, plenty of bamboo in calming tones make for a feel that is understated and classy.
As it is an adults-only resort, you will find the communal facilities to be peaceful and chicly mature in tone. This Relais and Chateaux location has an incredible six options for dining, with the flagship being Amor Loco, complete with purple velvet armchairs and a cabaret stage. It isn’t just the food that will guarantee a memorable evening at Amor Loco! Our choice is a more sedate affair with the bonus of a world-class view: the alfresco Latin bistro that overlooks Arenal volcano.
In addition to your own private and secluded hot pool, fed from the heat of local geothermal energy, you have the choice of five other pools. Once again, for the experience of the magnificent view of the volcano, we think the best one is the infinity pool at the highest point of the property.
Experiences
- All the potential adventures of Arenal National Park are up for grabs. You can kayak on Lake Arenal, zipline through the rainforest, raft down raging rivers, or hike to your heart’s content. A guided walk over the lava fields is particularly fascinating.
- A day amidst the 10,000 hectares of the Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge will give you the chance to experience the majesty of the rainforest and its wildlife.
- You can spend some time hearing from experts at the Proyecto Asis Wildlife Rescue Centre and even help them care for the animals. Who could resist the chance of feeding a sloth?
- Learn the secrets of coffee production and the skills of tasters, traders and baristas. An expert in all aspects of coffee will guide you as you experiment with tasting and roasting.
- Take one of the early morning guided nature walks to see the best of the local birdlife. You will hardly believe how close you can get to the characterful toucans.
