Nayara Tented Camp is a winner for both guests and biodiversity alike, and is a complementary addition to the existing award-winning Nayara properties in Arenal. Nestled in a lush rainforest setting, VIDA along with locally-based architects Estudio C2 Arquitectura and Luxury Frontiers from South Africa/USA re-envisioned a former masterplan by revising the circulation strategy and arrival experience, creating a series of terraced thermal pools and restoring 6 hectares of former agricultural land to create an extension of the existing rainforest and a ‘sloth sanctuary’.
