Nayara Gardens

Nayara Gardens

A luxury boutique hotel and spa set against the panoramic backdrop of Arenal Volcano, surrounded by rainforest, with private bungalows featuring terraces and plunge pools.
Location: La Fortuna

If you’ve ever dreamed of waking up in a private bungalow surrounded by the hush of rainforest and the distant murmur of volcanic springs, Nayara Gardens makes that dream feel like second nature. This lush, family-friendly sister property to Nayara Springs is no less spectacular—just a touch more welcoming to those traveling with kids or in larger groups. It’s refined yet grounded, with a deep sense of place. Think hand-carved wood, Costa Rican cottons, and the gentle sway of a hammock outside your door.
