Restore Excitement Through Play in Costa Rica at Nantipa - a Tico Beach Experience

Travel has long been a way to recharge and rejuvenate, and Costa Rica offers a captivating playground. As adults, we lose the natural inclination to play but it’s an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Play promotes mental health and prevents serious disease by releasing endorphins that lower stress, sparking creativity that improves mental functioning, and stimulating neurohormones that improve memory and critical thinking.

Nantipa - a Tico Beach Experience is a sustainable, boutique property nestled by the beach in one of UNESCO’s five Blue Zones, where people live the longest and are healthiest. It exemplifies the barefoot luxury concept, which blends the healing properties of the natural environment with unparalleled comfort and service.

Ways to play in Costa Rica, with Hotel Nantipa as your home base:

  • ATV adventures – Guests can hop on ATVs to explore the chill surftown of Santa Teresa, stopping along the way to visit local beachfront bars for delicious bites and dancing.
  • Hiking – Nantipa organizes excursions through the nearby jungle where guests can wave to parrots and giggle at monkeys en route to swim and snap photos at the Montezuma Waterfall.
  • Surfing – Try a private surf lesson! Learning new activities creates synaptic connections in the brain that increase self-awareness and connection to the environment. In other words, it sets the stage for wellbeing. 
  • Spa – Enter the Numu Wellness Center just steps away from your room and indulge in relaxing custom spa treatments surrounded by nature’s sounds, scents, and colors.
  • Stay in – Guests don’t even have to leave their rooms to engage in playful activities. Private pools provide the perfect space to splish splash with a partner. Jungle terraces with hammocks and lounge chairs offer a beautiful stage for spending quality time with your travel partner. Order a custom cocktail (or mocktail) made with fresh, local ingredients and you’re on your way to play.
  • Fishing – The waters off the Costa Rica coast are full of Tuna, Snapper, Mackerel and more. In addition to boats, gear, and expert guides, Nantipa provides chefs to cook up the catch for a custom dinner experience on the beach after a day on the sea.
