Sustainable Hotels

Costa Rica is a country of fantastic natural beauty and delicate ecosystems. As a visitor to its impressive landscape, one seeks to tread lightly and support efforts that will help to preserve its natural wonders into the future. Some hotels in the country have led the way in implementing policies that seek a better balance with the environment and community. These properties have taken steps to significantly reduce waste, toxicity, and consumption of resources. Many have developed programs in areas such as recycling, reforestation, and environmental education. For the conscientious traveler, these accommodations offer some of the best places to enjoy a mid-range or luxury vacation with minimal environmental impact.
