To celebrate their newest luxury endeavor, Ritz-Carlton has introduced the Nekajui Reserve. Perched on a dramatic bluff, this gorgeous getaway offers spectacular panoramic vistas of lush hills and picturesque beaches along Costa Rica’s north Pacific coast. This ultra-luxury enclave is the eighth Ritz-Carlton Reserve worldwide. It’s the hotel group’s first Reserve property in Central America. As artistic as it is welcoming, Nekajui’s grand entrance adds to the growing character of Peninsula Papagayo. This South Carolina getaway is known for its upscale vibes and breathtaking scenery.
Nekajui features 107 architecturally striking rooms and suites, all with two-sided views of water and nature and private terraces. Many accommodations come equipped with private plunge pools and outdoor showers. These features combine to produce an otherworldly atmosphere that organically blends opulence and rustic charm. The design concept is inspired by the project site’s rich tropical dry forest environment, one of the most diverse ecosystems on earth with thousands of species of plants and animals.
The Nekajui Reserve provides a unique opportunity to dine. Guests can stroll among eight extraordinary venues, each one offering a sumptuous culinary treat. La Casona La Casona is the bar within the main building. Ámbar is a cliff-hanging cocktail bar, allowing for phenomenal sunset views across the valley below.
If you’re seeking pampering, the resort features an award-winning spa. It’s accessible to non-residential visitors. We think this collaborative approach will bring the unique peace and refreshment that Nekajui has to offer to more people.
Nekajui provides a selection of exquisite villas. One villa has four bedrooms, the other ten—ideal for bigger gatherings or families looking for a more intimate retreat. Located in the magnificent Peninsula Papagayo, the resort provides access to just over a dozen miles of gorgeous coastline and untouched white-sand beaches. With hundreds of miles of hiking and bike trails in the area, it’s an outdoor-junkie’s playground!
Room rates at Nekajui begin at $2,390, making it an ultra-luxurious retreat for high-end clientele. This price point does not come without the Ritz-Carlton’s luxurious amenities and unparalleled, world-class service.
Today, the Peninsula Papagayo area is luxurious definition, serving as the backdrop for a “a singular estate removed from the rest of humanity.” Ever since, it has gained a somewhat dubious guise as the nation’s ultrarich sanctuary. They are drawn here because they seek confidentiality and exclusivity, away from all the usual luxury attractions. As we wrote in a recent Working Paper, where “the ultrarich find refuge from having to mingle with the normal rich.” This realization only deepens the allure of off-the-beaten-path destinations such as Nekajui.
