Arenal Volcano National Park
We also love the hiking trails that include sightings of the Cataratas Fortuna waterfall and the Rio Agua Caliente, which are actually more lukewarm than hot springs but a lovely place for a late-afternoon dip nonetheless. No matter where you choose to hike in Arenal Volcano National Park, you’ll be surrounded by colourful birds including the magnificent quetzal with its electric blue and red plumage.
- Extinct and safely active volcanoes connected by hiking trails.
- More than 800 species of birds.
- Crater lakes suitable for swimming.
- Accessible hot springs.
- 70-metre Cataratas Fortuna waterfall.
As soon as you cross the footbridge into the grounds of Nayara Springs, you will know you have come to a place that will fulfil your expectations. Whether you want a romantic and secluded getaway, luxurious indulgence in the spa or in your private hot pool, or some adventure in the lush forests on the slopes of Arenal Volcano, Nayara Springs has it all.
At the top of a hill with exceptional views of Arenal Volcano, surrounded by the lush forest of a sloth sanctuary, and with bubbling hot geothermal water, the Nayara Tented Camp must be in consideration for being one of the world’s best experiences of extreme glamping.
The terracotta roofs emerging through the lush forests flanking the perfect cone of Arenal Volcano are actually the luxury casitas of Amor Arenal, an independent small-scale retreat based on using invigorating mineral waters whilst introducing guests to the surrounding pristine ecosystem.
