"Nayara Springs is amazing! We LOVED our room, we loved the food, we loved all of the staff, we loved how every time we left our room it was a new adventure. We saw sloths, an agouti, tons of birds and lizards, butterflies, and a raccoon all without leaving the resort. I cannot say enough nice things about how wonderful Nayara Springs is. It was our anniversary and the staff made it so special! We loved every minute of this trip!"

"We stayed three nights there and felt absolutely safe and comfortable. This place has a luxurious feel. We loved every aspect of it: the service was great, the breakfast delicious, the pools were amazing, and the farm was a very special place. I didn't have a chance to use the spa, but it looked very appealing. The big advantage that the resort doesn't sell day passes. It was not crowded at all during our 3 night stay in a beginning of May. Safe travels!"

"The staff was so friendly that compensated for everything else. We had an unfortunate event on our first night with Housekeeping, and they tried to compensate us as much as possible, kindness and attention was our favorite reaction from all their personnel, from cart drivers, restaurants, SPAs, and the stars were the reception team. Alonso is a great asset for this property, he made us want to come back and resolved every request we had. Great property, PURA VIDA! Memorable experience for our...

"We enjoyed it very much ! This is a less hectic area in the other side of the lake around 45 minute drive from fortuna. The food was good and the staff very kind! The view of the sunset from our bungalow was breathtaking. The room was really nice and clean, comfortable and quiet The bar and the pool closed a little earlier than we expected and if you are in Costa Rica in vacation having the pool closed a 7 pm is a bummer especially with the weather. But overall this is a place I would love...

"The view was beautiful volcano views on our patio and at breakfast daily! Our room was decorated for our anniversary on arrival with chocolates and wine. Daily room cleaning and turn down service. Very glad we rented a car because the walk was very long to the amenities since we were in the back of the property. The spa was absolutely amazing and relaxing. The prices for the spa were very reasonable. Breakfast was plenty and lasted us through the day. We got stuff for sandwiches for lunch as they had a fridge in the room which was nice. Did eat at the pool bar one night and was mediocre. The thermal pools were too hot in our opinion. Highly recommend tabacon spa which had over 20 thermal pools with different temperatures they offer day passes. We did enjoy the “cool” pool. Drinks there were a little pricey but very good! The front desk is very helpful with recommendations. Highly recommend this resort! "
