Luxury resorts and 5-star hotels in Costa Rica

Costa Rica’s best luxury resorts are found in three settings: the Papagayo Peninsula on the Guanacaste coast, the Arenal rainforest around La Fortuna, and the Pacific beaches further south. Our selection includes 5-star resorts such as Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo, Nayara Springs and The Springs Resort & Spa, alongside adults-only and all-inclusive options.

Which are the best 5-star resorts in Costa Rica?

It depends on what you want from your stay: beachfront and golf on the Papagayo Peninsula, volcano views and hot springs in Arenal, or a wellness-focused retreat. Tell us your dates and travel style and we will shortlist the right resort for you.

Are there luxury all-inclusive resorts in Costa Rica?

Yes, especially in Guanacaste, where dining, drinks and activities are included. See our luxury all-inclusive resorts in Costa Rica.

Booking a Costa Rica villa: local travel agent or online agency?

Many travelers look for a local travel agent in Costa Rica before booking a villa. Rather than a large online travel agency, Allure connects you directly with the local villa teams of Costa Rica: we shortlist the right property, confirm availability and arrange transfers, chef and activities for you.

Do I need a travel agent to book a villa in Costa Rica?

No, but a local specialist saves time. We explain what each villa includes, check your dates with the owners and take care of the arrival details, so all you have to choose is where to stay.
