Beyond the property, Nantipa facilitates local adventures including world-class surfing, yoga, paddle boarding, scuba diving, whale watching, fishing excursions, horseback riding, and hiking at Montezuma Waterfall, Cabo Blanco National Park, and Curú Reserve.

Nantipa is committed to preserving the natural Costa Rican environment and supporting the surrounding community. The hotel is designed with reclaimed wood, locally crafted furniture, a state-of-the-art waste-water treatment plant, energy sensors, and solar water heaters. Only six trees were cut to build the hotel, and more were planted to compensate for the loss. Hiring local residents and sourcing regional ingredients is a priority. At the beachfront restaurant, Manzú, seafood is purchased from local fishermen, bread is made by a local baker, and a significant portion of the produce is local to the Nicoya Peninsula region. Guests can sip tropical cocktails and relax beachside during the sunset, knowing that their experience sustains local economies and conserves resources. In addition, guests can participate in the hotel’s sustainability initiatives like Pack for a Purpose and 10-minute beach clean-ups.

The Villas join Nantipa’s existing 19 suites and bungalows nestled in the trees of one of UNESCO’s five Blue Zones, where people live longest and are healthiest. The newly opened Numú Wellness Center invites guests on a holistic healing journey in an open-air space within the intimate gardens. Widely recognized as exemplary, Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) recently named Nantipa as one of the premier environmentally sustainable luxury properties in the world for their new 26-property “Considerate Collection.” Nantipa was also recently accepted as a Virtuoso partner and is an active member of Signature, Serendipians, and Travel Leaders.
