Nayara Resort, Spa & Gardens | Condé Nast Traveler

"The prize of the Arenal region sits on the skirt of a grand volcano only a mile and a half off La Fortuna highway. The resort's 50 huge and colorful casitas deliver the promise of views impossible to replicate, and all have outdoor showers and hot tubs. Spirited resident parrot, Guadalupe, earns a special mention, as does beyond incredible service, Latin- and Japanese-inflected cuisine at Sushi Amor restaurant, and other delicious food--especially breakfasts, with made-to-order huevos rancheros. The tropical romance is perfect for honeymooners, but not exclusionary of families. For an adults-only escape, try the adjacent Nayara Springs for a sublime escape."
