Nayara in the jungle and at the beach
What a phenomenal pairing with two of the most celebrated luxury eco-resorts in the world. Start with the misty, sloth-filled canopy of the Costa Rican rainforest and contrast that with the crystal-clear, over-water serenity of Panama’s Caribbean coast.
Jungle - Nayara Tented Camp. Costa Rica
Day One - Fly into San José or Liberia and take your private, chauffeured transfer to Nayara Tented Camp near the Arenal Volcano National Park. Settle into your luxury cliff-side tent, complete with your own private thermal plunge pool fed by natural volcanic hot springs.
Day Two - Wake up to the sounds of the jungle and enjoy an à-la-carte breakfast on your deck. Spend the morning walking the hanging bridges through the canopy or spotting resident sloths with one of Nayara's expert nature guides. In the evening, enjoy a private twilight dinner at Ayla, their Mediterranean-inspired restaurant looking directly out at the commanding Arenal Volcano.
Day 3: Focus on wellness. Book a volcanic mud treatment or a massage at their open-air spa pavilions tucked into the forest. After dark, take a guided night walk through the rainforest to spot translucent glass frogs and other nocturnal wildlife.
Day Four - Jungle to Ocean
Take your private, air-conditioned transfer to San Jose Airport. Take your flight directly to Bocas del Toro Airport. The Nayara ground team will immediately meet you and escort you to the dock for a breezy 15-minute boat transfer to their private island. Step off the boat onto Frangipani Island, an off-grid, adults-only sanctuary. Check into your private over-water villa and dive straight off your wrap-around deck into the Caribbean.
Day 5 - Take a private boat tour with your own captain to the untouched sands of Zapatilla Island for a secluded beach picnic. Keep an eye out for resident pods of dolphins leaping in the bay as you cruise back to Nayara
Day 6 - Elevate your final full day with a couples' massage at the new Calibri Treehouse Spa, utilizing native cacao and tropical botanicals. Toast to the end of your trip with a multi-course fine dining experience over the water.
Day 7 - Enjoy a last cup of Panamanian coffee on your deck before taking te Nayara boat transfer back to Bocas Town. Once there, you will take a 60-minute domestic flight to Panama City to connect to your international flight home.
