TPG has highlighted the best hotels of 2024, but attention is already turning to 2025 with new hotel openings in Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Among these is Nekajui, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve in Costa Rica, which is now accepting reservations.

Guests can book stays at Nekajui starting March 1, 2025. It should be noted that new hotels often face delays due to construction and permit issues.

Located on Costa Rica's Papagayo Peninsula, Nekajui aims to become one of the country's premier resorts and a standout within the Marriott portfolio. The name "Nekajui," meaning "lush garden" in the Chorotega dialect, reflects its setting within 1,400 acres of tropical forest.

There are also ultraluxury choices like a four-bedroom Grand Villa, 36 private residences, and a ten-bedroom home.

Costa Rica provides ample adventure opportunities beyond relaxation at Nekajui.
