10 Best Resorts in Costa Rica for Your Next Trip - AFAR

"A conservation-minded luxury lodge adjacent to one of Central America’s last coastal lowland rain forests, preserving over 1,000 acres and operating since the early 1990s. The 17 hardwood bungalows feature private verandas with plunge pools, and guest programming emphasizes active nature immersion—volunteer coral-reef restoration, bird-watching with frequent macaw and toucan sightings, waterfall hikes, and sustainability tours that reveal renewable building materials and an extensive renewables setup (including hundreds of solar panels, water turbines, and energy storage) providing purified water. The property grows food in organic gardens, raises pigs fed with restaurant food waste, and serves locally sourced plant-based and sustainably sourced meat, dairy, and seafood in its restaurant." - Devorah Lev-Tov
