The property is absolutely beautiful! We stayed in room 16 Titi and had a perfect view of the arenal volcano. We couldn't be happier with our stay from the food, to the friendly staff and lush clean grounds. 10/10 vacation.

By far the best trip I have ever had. My wife and I went here for our Honeymoon and the staff made every effort to make sure it was a memorable trip. From getting picked up at the Airport, to our arrival, to our excursions and dinners, everything was immaculate and by far the most professional and caring staff on the planet. We will definitely come back again and again! Thank you!!

Everything was amazing. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with such good service. The only thing I would say can be much better is the food. For the such high prices you have to pay to eat, the food is not up to par.

Nayara tent cabins are stunning. They are beautifully designed and appointed. From the outdoor showers to the well stocked complimentary mini-bar, everything was top-notch. Our private thermal pool was enjoyed twice a day. Gorgeous. It was hard to leave our little piece of paradise!

Once in a lifetime
The Nayara Tented Camp was an amazing experience. The private outdoor shower, thermal pool and views were spectacular. We ate at four different restaurants and all were exceptional. The property is very hilly but the staff are more than willing to transport you in golf carts. The service was outstanding and the staff were very friendly.

Property is stunning. Very hilly and lush. Private plunge pool a plus with lots of privacy. The people here are wonderful. No issues with check in or out. Beds comfortable. Loved the two showers but preferred outdoor version even when raining. Food at resort was fabulous every time. Only drawback was the bartender at the main tent made us wait 15 minutes for a drink so we left. He was not up to par with the rest of the people we met.
