Xandari Resort & Spa consists of 18 spacious villas on a 40 acre coffee and fruit plantation overlooking Costa Rica's Central Valley. The villa's private terraces, furniture and gardens are designed with great attention to detail, and each villa is adorned with original works of art. All villas have a private terrace, a walled-in sun area, a bar, kitchen, and either a king sized bed or two full beds. Over 3-kilometres of scenic trails lead through coffee and fruit orchards and into a lush natural tropical setting with a year-round river and five beautiful waterfalls. Fruits, vegetables and herbs from the plantation's gardens complement Xandari's health-conscious specialty dishes. Add to this the warm personal attention of a dedicated staff. . . and it's simply paradise.
