Kura Boutique Hotel
Under the claim of uniting minimalism with tropical abundance, the Kura Boutique Hotel was built as an elegant getaway against the backdrop of the Costa Rican jungle by an architect and a biologist. The modern and exotic resort combines the high standards of international luxury hospitality with the relaxed Central American lifestyle into a completely new lifestyle concept. Situated on the summit of a hill near Costa Ballena in southern Costa Rica, this glamorous adults-only hotel offers stunning panoramic views over the endless greenery, the vast expanse of the ocean, and the colorful sunset. The Kura Boutique Hotel is a clear testament that luxury, sustainability, and respect for nature do not exclude each other, but can perfectly complement one another. Even well-traveled guests will be surprised by the diversity and authenticity of this remote and rural part of the country.

Rooms
With only eight luxurious suites, the Kura Boutique Hotel is an oasis in the midst of Costa Rica's tropical rainforest. Each accommodation offers the highest level of privacy and comfortable amenities such as cozy king-size beds, hammocks, open-air showers, and air conditioning. Generous living and lounge areas are complemented by an open deck with panoramic views of the forest, the treetops, or the sparkling ocean. Whether a 68 square meter junior suite, an 85 square meter infinity suite above the forest canopy, or a 140 square meter master suite with a private pool on the hilltop – each unit is a design masterpiece that has been elegantly furnished with great attention to detail.
Culinary
The cuisine at the Kura Boutique Hotel can be ideally described in three words: simple, upscale, and sustainable. Each dish is a culinary highlight created from pure, organic, and regionally sourced ingredients. From fruits and vegetables from the hotel's own garden to fish, seafood, and meat from local farmers, every single ingredient is carefully selected and uniquely fresh. The dedicated kitchen team offers a colorful, diverse, and distinctive menu that is not only full of flavors and tastes but also takes special dietary preferences such as vegetarian and vegan, gluten-free, or allergies into consideration. In addition to the secret house recipes of the chef, dishes not on the hotel menu can be prepared upon request.
Activities
At the Kura Boutique Hotel, those seeking relaxation can be enchanted by the atmosphere of the rainforest and find a relaxed, tropical rainforest rhythm that carries away everyday stress with the gentle ocean breeze. Far from everyday distractions, couples enjoy a romantic time together here and have a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with what matters most amidst the breathtaking nature. In the ionized saltwater swimming pool, guests enjoy an unparalleled panoramic view of the sea and the sunset. Spa wellness treatments make your relaxation even more perfect. For those seeking adventure, a hike can lead to the Nauyaca Waterfall, where a natural pool at its base provides a welcome refreshment.
Location
The Kura Boutique Hotel is located in southern Costa Rica on a wooded hill near the coast overlooking the town of Uvita and the Marino Ballena National Park. The region is famous for its high biodiversity of flora and fauna both on land and in water, a sandbank shaped like a whale's fin around which the annual migration of humpback whales occurs, and a steadily growing international gastronomy scene. San José International Airport is about a four-hour drive from the hotel.
