Four Seasons Tamarindo: A Jungle Enclave in Mexico's Costalegre

Opening May 18, 2026, the Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo establishes a new benchmark for luxury in Mexico's Costalegre. Parade reports the journey to the resort feels "otherworldly," carving through dense jungle before revealing an "architectural marvel."

This new Four Seasons property, according to Parade's Esther Carlstone, masterfully balances opulent amenities with a dedicated commitment to environmental responsibility. The resort caters to families while maintaining an authentic sense of place.

Gastronomy is a highlight, with Coyul, the resort’s signature restaurant, collaborating with Elena Reygada, named the World's Best Female Chef in 2023. Parade notes that the plating alone justified the price, with flavors to match. Guests can also enjoy pastries from Mexico City's renowned Rosetta bakery served on-site for breakfast. The resort’s Rancho Lola farm, where children can interact with animals, transforms dining into an educational experience, according to Carlstone.

Our take: The Four Seasons is clearly leveraging the Costalegre's untouched allure, positioning Tamarindo as an experiential resort rather than just a luxury hotel. The emphasis on farm-to-table dining and sustainability, coupled with a remote setting, suggests a strategic play for guests seeking both indulgence and genuine connection to their surroundings. The collaboration with Chef Reygada elevates its culinary bona fides substantially.
