Esh Hotel & Spa

The name comes from the Hebrew word for fire, and the hotel commits to the bit: lava-stone soaking tubs, blackened wood furniture, and a fireplace where guests are invited to cast their intentions into the flames. It holds a Michelin Key. This rainforest retreat outside Nosara offers jungle baths, canopy-level balconies, and a three-tiered pool, with a shuttle to Guiones Beach for anyone who runs out of excuses to stay put.
