Luxurious tropical haven.
Tucked within Costa Rica’s lush Palmares Preserve, Nekajui, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, blends refined luxury with immersive natural beauty. Overlooking the serene waters of the Pacific Ocean, this secluded escape offers bespoke service and curated experiences that connect guests to the region’s biodiversity and artisan heritage.
Insider Tip

Just minutes away, the Guanacaste World Heritage Site offers forest trails, volcanic formations, and rich biodiversity—an ideal way to connect with Costa Rica’s landscapes and history.

Where You’re Staying

From treetop tents to hillside residences, accommodations blend luxury with the landscape. Handcrafted furnishings, marble baths, and terraces—many with private plunge pools—enhance the sense of calm. Residences include multiple bedrooms, infinity pools, and open-air living with forest and ocean views.

Where to Dine

Start with Costa Rican coffee at Café Rincón, then try coastal flavors at Puna or Iberian-inspired dishes at Niri Beach Club. As evening falls, enjoy a cocktail with local botanicals and ocean views at La Casona Bar.

Where to Relax

Restore your balance at Nimbu Spa & Wellness, where earth-inspired treatments take place in open-air villas facing the Pacific. Recharge by the infinity or terrace pools, soak in the whirlpool, or work out in fitness spaces overlooking the forest canopy.

What to Do

Tee off at the Arnold Palmer Signature Course, then explore Costa Rica’s wild beauty with Nekajui Explorers—from hiking and ziplining to surfing and sunset cruises. Visit nearby national parks like Rincón de la Vieja and Arenal for waterfalls and hot springs, or head to Marina Papagayo for coastal adventures and private charters.
