WE OFFER OUR LITTLE CORNER OF PARADISE

After an exciting but stressful professional life (real estate, communication, internet, politics, commerce, etc.), we wanted to change our lives.
We have chosen the Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica for its exceptional natural riches, the beauty of its landscapes, its inhabitants and the implementation by institutions and the population of a policy of sustainable tourism development.
After several months of research, we discovered this magical place. The one we imagined in our dreams.
Today, we would like to share with you our little corner of paradise. Our desire is to offer you a unique experience in an exceptional natural setting.

AN ECO-RESPONSIBLE APPROACH AND IN HARMONY WITH THE COMMUNITY

We try to minimize our impact on the environment. Our energy is 100% solar. We don't have air conditioning. The furniture was made by a local craftsman with local fallen wood. The cleaning products are organic. We try to sort and recycle our waste. We replant a lot of "native" plants and trees. We set up a group to protect turtle nests on Playa Preciosa with volunteers. We regularly clean the beach and participate in many environmental protection programs ...

We only work with artisans, guides, local merchants and participate in the life and animation of our adopted community.
