RESPONSIBILTY
CONSERVATION | COLLABORATION | CULTURE
From the moment we connect, you will get the sense of our passion and commitment to our place - the people, the animals, and the jungle that surrounds us.
We are about so much more than a hotel, a place to adventure, or a beach to relax on. We have tied ourselves deeply to the threads that bind us together as a community surrounded by nature and every decision we make, is guided by these principles.
Conservation through collaboration to achieve more than we possibly could alone. We are working closely with our local Conservation group - FUNDAT - Fundación de Agua y Tierra (Foundation for Water and Earth).
Together, with the scientists and educators of FUNDAT, we are all working tirelessly towards a mutual goal to conserve the Sea Turtle population and the nature around us in a way that will last beyond our years here and create a better world for those that follow.
Using a wholistic approach to combine conservation, education, adventure, and culture, we have developed yearly Sea Turtle Programs for our guests to experience.
By involving our community in our programs and our cultural activities, they are able to share the pride they have in this beautiful place, their heritage, and the uniqueness of Sea Turtles that grace their shores with our guests.
In this way, we are creating programs that impact all ages and backgrounds to not only surpass our years here but all over the world.
ACTION
To help conserve the beauty of the fragile nature that surrounds us, we are constantly evolving our strategies to support nature and our community.
Our two main areas of focus are Sea Turtle Conservation and trash mitigation as they compliment each other.
Our collaboration with FUNDAT is the most effective way to impact the global Sea Turtle Populations. Through our support to their organization and with their knowledgeable guidance, we are all able to be more effective and create sustainable conservation programs.
Here are some of the steps we are currently taking:
-
Donate 10% of all reservation income of guests referred and studying at the foundation.
-
Host fundraising events to raise money for the foundation
-
Help collect donations through a Go Fund Me page to support FUNDAT
-
Host Sea Turtle Education Programs 3 times a year to educate and donate
-
Share experiences at FUNDAT with our guests to raise awareness and funds to support their programs.
-
Daily beach patrols to monitor nesting and hatching activity on Morrillo Beach.
-
Daily beach cleanup / trash mitigation for a cleaner environment and to be stewards of the land.
Sea Turtles are Facing Extinction
You can help make a difference.
Our goal is to help FUNDAT raise $10,000 by the end of 2020, which will contribute greatly to the construction cost of a new research facility and visitor center.
FUNDAT is currently staffed by a knowledgeable and dedicated team: a Coastal Resource Manager, Environmental Educator, and a Marine Biologist.
This new facility will provide them the space, equipment, and additional staff needed to support Sea Turtle Conservation in this area. With additional staff, they will be able to cover more coastal area to monitor, research, and collect turtle eggs for safe hatching, as well as collect and share their data with the global Sea Turtle Scientists and Conservationists.
