Nayara is a place for those that enjoy
the relaxed,
understated ethos that embodies
Costa Rica’s
“Pura Vida” go-with-the-flow
way of life
The grounds are in a word, beautiful.
The walking paths surround you with
natural beauty and you never feel like
you are in a "resort." The sounds of the rain
forest and wildlife provide a beautiful
backdrop to the atmosphere of
relaxation and comfort.

The Arenal area is a bird watcher's paradise.
Few places in the world can boast of having
so many species of birds and Costa Rica has
identified over 850! Popular birds to spot in
Nayara’s bird-watching tour at dawn include
toucans, hummingbirds, trogons, and hawks.
And if you are lucky you’ll get a glimpse of
the shy quetzal.
Our grounds are rich in tropical plants, from palms and cycads to flowering trees and vines. A stroll around our tropical gardens is a celebration of the senses: Don’t miss our many colorful heliconias and bougainvilleas, the hardy banana flower or the many species of philodendrons.
A morning “zip-line” among the tree canopies or water rafting in the Sarapiqui River can be tiring. Come back and rest your aching muscles in our pool, leisurely sip a pina colada in Kali-Kali, our swim-up bar, or splash in our mineral private hot springs pools secluded in the rainforest
Discover many of the hundreds of frogs that call Nayara home, from the diminutive red-eye to the poisonous blue jean legs. Every night there is an organized frog-tour of the resort ponds with one of our
in-house naturalists.
