Ecological Hotel & Retreats
Light steps, deep presence
We are dedicated to providing our guests with an authentic encounter with the natural beauty that defines this region. Nestled in the serene jungle of Playa Pelada, our accommodations are a harmonious blend of comfort and simplicity, offering a tranquil escape just a short journey from the lively hub of Playa Guiones, Nosara.
Eco-Conscious
Each of our rooms is constructed using responsibly sourced materials and a water recycling system for our lush gardens. We strive to weave nature seamlessly into the fabric of our hotel, creating a haven that resonates with our respect for the environment.
Perfectly Located
Naya is situated within one of the world’s 5 Blue Zones, known for the longevity and well-being of its inhabitants. We are in the ungle of Playa Pelada with direct beach access via jungle path. In the heart of Nosara, amidst the dynamic surfing and wellness community, Naya is a serene refuge.
Proudly Individual
We provide a genuine experience that mirrors our own lives and principles. Operating as a small hotel and retreat center, our family has been rooted in this area for close to three decades, cultivating deep connections to the land and within the local Costa Rican community.
Join the family
Naya was created with a deep respect for the environment and a commitment to living lightly on the land. Our nature-centric ethic has guided both the design of the space and the way we operate. Resources provided by the environment have been responsibly utilized, and the integrity of the jungle ecosystem has been prioritized at every step.
The experience we offer comes directly from the values we live by: immersion in nature, environmental stewardship, creativity, self-inquiry, and simplicity.
Comfort & Beauty
Naya Nosara is designed as a small village rather than a single big house. Six stand‑alone units are spread through gardens and old‑growth trees, connected by paths and open common spaces. Each room includes its own entrance, en‑suite bathroom, AC, ceiling fan, quality mattress, and private veranda, giving every guest a sense of privacy while still feeling part of the same property. Shared areas include a full guest kitchen, open‑air dining and lounge spaces, an infinity pool with loungers and pool beds, and a yoga shala surrounded by nature.
A supported container for your work
We host retreats of all kinds. You bring the vision. We support the whole journey. It’s our pleasure and honor to be a part of your work.
As long-term retreat participants, supporters and facilitators ourselves, we know what it takes to create a beautiful and powerful experience for a group.
“…This place is heaven on earth. It was by far our favorite accommodation in Costa Rica, beautiful property, pool area, villa is amazing…We will 100% be back. Sunset at the beach is beautiful.”
