PB hotel design editorial

Positioned directly in the sightline of Arenal Volcano, one of Central America's most photogenic geological formations, Nayara Springs was conceived as an adults-only counterpart to the larger Nayara Resort next door — a collection of 35 private pool villas arranged across a forested hillside in La Fortuna, Costa Rica, where the canopy is dense enough that each villa feels genuinely remote from its neighbors. The architecture disperses low-slung timber and bamboo structures through the landscape rather than imposing on it, with steeply pitched thatched rooflines and warm ochre-washed walls that carry the feeling of a Balinese hillside retreat transplanted to the Neotropical rainforest. The interiors draw heavily from Southeast Asian craft traditions — four-poster canopied beds draped in white muslin, deeply carved teak coffee tables, rattan-framed armchairs, and intricately worked circular wall mirrors in dark wood sit atop wide-plank tropical hardwood floors and hand-painted encaustic cement tiles. Outdoor terraces fitted with carved daybed loungers extend each villa directly into the surrounding plantings of heliconias and banana palms. The restaurant takes a sharply different tonal register: black-and-white striped columns, a graphic checkerboard tile floor, a veined marble bar counter, and a Sputnik chandelier alongside industrial dome pendants give the dining space a mid-century resort energy that cuts against the villa rooms' tropical romanticism — the tension between the two keeps the property from tipping into simple pastiche.

"If you are looking for the ultimate romantic luxury escape in the Costa Rican rainforest, Nayara Springs in La Fortuna is truly in a league of its own. My husband and I chose this breathtaking property for our honeymoon, and it exceeded our wildest expectations in every possible way. Nestled in lush tropical greenery with views of Arenal Volcano, this adults-only resort creates an atmosphere of pure, secluded tranquility. We loved waking up in our villa and stepping straight into our private plunge pool fed by natural mineral hot springs. The culinary experience was exceptional from start to finish—the daily breakfast was nothing short of spectacular, and the dining throughout the property was incredible. Room delivery is available for just a minimal fee, and their service standard is second to none: nothing is ever a "no." Every single request was handled with genuine enthusiasm, and the staff consistently and quickly went above and beyond to make everything seamless. The entire team was phenomenal, but we have to give a massive, special shoutout to our driver, Rafael. He went so far above and beyond to make us feel celebrated throughout our stay on both legs of the trip. His warmth, genuine attentiveness, and exceptional hospitality completely elevated our honeymoon experience and made getting around effortless. In fact some of the best wildlife photos we took were from his guidance on the airport transfers. Also I’d be remiss to say anything without giving a very large shoutout to the entire team including the housekeeping staff a concierge for going beyond and above every single morning and evening. The resort itself is absolutely gorgeous and you truly don’t need to leave for a week to get the full experience of Costa Rican rainforest. We left feeling completely rejuvenated and so well taken care of. Nayara Springs is a picture-perfect rainforest sanctuary, and we cannot wait to return!"

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Absolute Adults-Only Dream Vacation — 10/10! Nayara Springs was an absolute dream vacation! I cannot rave enough about this beautiful resort. 10/10 in every way. Our villa was sexy, romantic, beautifully designed, and incredibly private. Every little detail made it feel luxurious and special. The private volcanic plunge pool was absolutely beautiful, and I felt so relaxed and at peace during our entire stay. It truly felt like our own private paradise. The gym was super nice, and the food throughout the resort was also amazing. Nayara does have a separate resort experience for families, but if you’re looking for a romantic, adults-only getaway, Nayara Springs is the place to stay! The spa was one of the best spa experiences I’ve ever had. I did the Volcanic Revitalizing Mud Massage, while my husband had a deep-tissue massage. The entire atmosphere was so peaceful and relaxing—it was amazing from beginning to end. We celebrated our anniversary here, and Nayara made it incredibly special. We finished our spa day with a romantic dinner at Amor Loco, and they surprised us with such a beautiful anniversary experience. Please look at the pictures because they truly went above and beyond for us! A very special thank you to Merlyn, who was amazing from the moment she checked us in. She made sure we had everything we needed throughout our entire stay. Honestly, the entire staff treated us like VIPs and made us feel so welcomed and cared for. If you’re looking for privacy, romance, luxury, relaxation, beautiful surroundings, amazing food, and exceptional service, Nayara Springs is it. It was the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary, and we created memories we will never forget. Also, it’s best to book with the resort directly you get free breakfast, they bring it to your room. We will definitely be back! ❤️🌿🥂The Valle’s Villa 05"

"Exquisite hotel. I loved our room-incredibly spacious, comfortable, and private. The bathroom was immense with indoor and outdoor showers, ample closet space, and two very large, separate sink areas. The staff was also top notch-so kind. I cannot wait to return."

"Nayara Springs exceeded every expectation and was truly one of the most incredible places I've ever stayed. The resort is absolutely breathtaking, with luxurious private villas surrounded by lush rainforest and beautiful views of Arenal Volcano. Seeing sloths and toucans in the wild was unforgettable, and the bell staff went above and beyond to help us spot them. The spa was phenomenal, and every member of the reception and housekeeping teams made us feel genuinely welcome. The food, service, and attention to detail were exceptional. I left with wonderful memories. Nayara Springs is truly a little piece of paradise."

"Amazing experience! This is without a doubt the best hotel we've ever stayed at. All the staff is very attentive, the amenities are excellent, and the food unforgettable. We ate way too much and don't regret it, tried almost all the restaurants and they were all great. First time doing a spa and having the jungle in the background was beautiful and relaxing. Big shout out to William who took us to find a baby sloth and toucans! Also thank you for the personal touch of all the details for my husband's birthday. We already want to go back!"
