Sustainability
We have an important commitment with sustainability and taking everyday actions into our operation in order to preserve this beautiful paradise surrounding us. We are aware of the impact we cause in our ecosystem, this is why we are committed to its protection and have established internal eco-friendly policies, and are frequently involved in the communities’ environmental initiatives. Here are some ways we do this:
-
Potable water: We are proud to be one of the only companies in the Central Pacific region of Costa Rica to have its own well and process its own delicious and refreshing drinking water. This well is a gift mother nature provided us and that is why it is so important for us to use it carefully.
-
- Refill system: We have the refill system in our room amenities such as shampoo, conditioner and body wash, which by the way are amazing products of a Costa Rican women owned company called Aromas. They are a B Corporation certified company, cruelty free, use natural ingredients that make their products biodegradable.
-
- Action in the community: We have worked with a local NGO called Sayú, which incentivizes conservation and sustainability from the community perspective as a whole. They create social, cultural and environmental programs that involve the
young people of the community. We have participated in beach clean ups, river clean ups and we really support and root for their impact in Quepos. We also try to support local athletes in achieving their sport goals, such as Yazdanny Castro, who is a very talented bodyboarder with a bright career ahead of him. Also the triathlon team of Quepos has shown a lot of discipline and hard work which is why we try to give economic support to them as well. This is important because it sets an example to young people in the community and creates more healthy and positive spaces for them to thrive.
