The details that shape your stay
Resort style
Gardens is more family-friendly and sociable than the neighboring adult-only Springs.
Hot springs
Seven mineral pools and a swim-up bar complement private pools in the rooms.
Accommodation
Stand-alone casitas and villas offer abundant outdoor space and indoor-outdoor showers.
Shared experiences
Dining and selected facilities across the connected Nayara resorts expand the choices, subject to current access.
Private-pool accommodations rather than a club level
There is no club lounge. The distinction lies between the expansive Arenal Pool Casita and the slightly larger, octagonal Rainforest Pool Villa, both of which currently include private pools, generous terraces and an immersive indoor-outdoor design.
