COSTA RICA’S

FAMILY TIME

Costa Rica’s Untamed Beauty

13 NIGHTS, ARENAL NATIONAL PARK, SAN JOSÉ PROVINCE & PENINSULA PAPAGAYO

  • 4 nights at Nayara Tented Camp in a Family Tent with hot spring pool
  • Explore Costa Rica’s wildlife with a private naturalist guide
  • 4 nights at Hacienda AltaGracia, Auberge Collection
  • Discover indigenous traditions with local community guides

Costa Rica is a country that makes explorers of everyone. Volcanoes, tangled treetops, empty beaches and wildlife provide the backdrop, but it’s the people, stories and unexpected encounters that give this family adventure its character.

Begin with four nights at Nayara Tented Camp, where canvas-topped family tents sit high above the rainforest, connected by outdoor living space and a personal pool fed by natural hot springs. Your private naturalist guide will help you explore volcanic landscapes, hidden waterfalls and enchanting trails, keeping watch for sloths, monkeys and exotic birds. A gourmet picnic also gives everyone time to stop and take it all in.

Next, spend four nights at Hacienda AltaGracia, Auberge Collection, a luxurious wellbeing resort where large casitas provide a private base in the foothills of the Talamanca Mountains. Meet local community guides to discover indigenous traditions, crafts and stories, before venturing through untamed forest to picturesque waterfalls.

Finish with five nights at Villa Manzu, a private resort overlooking the Pacific. Take advantage of your locale and sail to a deserted beach, where a stretch of Costa Rican coastline is yours to swim and explore at leisure.
