Nayara Springs, a collection of 16 high-luxury private villas, opened in Costa Rica last month. Built atop an untouched mountain in the Arenal rainforest, the new property is surrounded by creeks, natural hot springs, and boasts sublime views of the third most active volcano on earth.

The main attraction of Nayara Springs are the pools fed by mineral hot springs that are built into every villa. In addition to full butler service, all accommodations will feature a private garden with open air shower, as well as indoor and outdoor lounging areas. The villas are located steps away from a spa, yoga pavilion, oversized adult pool, and piano bar. All parts of the resort overlook a ravine, providing a true immersion in the rainforest.

Located approximately 2.5 hours from the capital of San Jose, Nayara Springs sits in seclusion just outside the town of La Fortuna, in the foothills of the Arenal Volcano. The Arenal Volcano National Park is host to one of the world’s highest concentrations of tropical plants and wildlife, and one of the most popular destinations in all of Costa Rica. Guests have the option to book tours and adventures exclusive to Nayara, including:

· Hikes to the volcano
· Zip-lining through the rainforest
· Riding in a Sky Tram for Arenal Volcano and lake views
· Rafting on the Toro River (a Class III river)

Rates at the adults-only Nayara Springs start from $590 per night and will include:

· Daily à la carte breakfast
· Welcome drinks
· Complimentary mini-bar
· Complimentary Internet access and long distance telephone calls to anywhere in the world
