The The Ritz-Carlton Reserve portfolio has officially welcomed its newest jewel, Nekajui, perched majestically on the cliffs of Peninsula Papagayo in Costa Rica. Owned by Gencom and Mohari Hospitality, this ultra-luxury escape marks the first Ritz-Carlton Reserve in Central and South America, and the eighth globally.

Derived from the Chorotega word for “lush garden,” Nekajui is an extraordinary addition to the luxury hospitality landscape, enveloped within 1,400 acres of dry tropical forest. Guests can immerse themselves in 107 ocean-facing rooms, suites, and a rare offering of three luxury treetop tents, each designed to seamlessly integrate with the surrounding natural beauty, offering panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and an unrivalled connection to the breath-taking Pochote Bay.
