Taking a dip in the healing waters of Tabacon's thermal springs, located at the base of Arenal Volcano, is one of the most romantic things you can do for your significant other. Imagine vast, verdant tropical gardens with hot waterfalls, warm river pools, and hidden nooks.
A bar serves drinks directly into the pool, a cold pool, and a special area for adults known as the Shangri-La Gardens. The pools are formed from a naturally occurring river, so they are the only completely natural hot springs in Arenal. Tabacon has been honored for being among the greatest spots for couples to stay in Costa Rica.
A romantic cruise down the Guanacaste Gold Coast will take you past picturesque settlements painted in pastels and along pristine stretches of white sand beach. With a refreshing tropical drink, there's nothing quite like cruising the open ocean aboard a sleek sailing catamaran in search of dolphins, sea turtles, flying fish, or maybe a breaching whale.
The cooks will make a delicious meal as you swim in a calm cove or stroll hand in hand along a lonely white sand beach. Afterward, you may sail back to the harbor when the sun dips lower in the sky.
Kura is among the best Costa Rica honeymoon resorts because it is perched high in the Uvita jungle and looks out over the breathtaking Costa Ballena, or Whale Coast. Forbes Magazine dubbed this "the most luxurious romance resort in Costa Rica," It certainly lives up to the hype.
So what makes brunch so exceptional? If you and your loved one are doing this, you're likely taking it easy this morning and taking the time to appreciate the finer things in life. When you factor in the tantalizing, one-of-a-kind cuisine, you have a recipe for success.
The Spa at Nayara Springs is the perfect place for a romantic getaway in Costa Rica. Enjoy a few vital, rejuvenating days in the Costa Rican jungle, where you'll be awed by the beauty of nature and encouraged to return to your center.
Couples may enjoy a chocolate clay body wrap or a specialty massage in the open air in a tent in the jungle for a memorable and intimate experience. The candlelit gourmet meals are served in the piano bar lounge and the adults-only villas with private plunge pools fed by natural springs. Nayara is a stunning location, making it a top choice for honeymoons in Costa Rica.
Imagine a life of luxury and exploration without shoes.

Eat by candlelight in the open air while being caressed by gentle breezes from the Gulf of Mexico and listening to the nighttime music of the jungle. Daily gathered organic fruit from the on-site farm and grass-fed Costa Rican beef, are just some of the ingredients that go into creating menus that are as eye-catching as the surrounding landscape.
Indulge in a romantic Costa Rican evening by sharing a gourmet supper beneath the stars at a private table set with fine linens as tree frogs serenade you to the sound of the rushing Pacuare River. Among the world's most beautiful rivers, the Pacuare is a location of unspoiled wilderness, thriving wildlife, and thrilling exploration.
There are few things more exciting than snuggling up next to your significant other while listening to the sounds of nature. Maybe it's the whitewater rafting trip down the Pacuare River to the Pacuare Lodge.
