Sustainable tourism has been defined by the world tourism organization, as one that "meets the present needs of tourists and host regions, while protecting and improving opportunities for the future. It is foreseen as a guide in the management of all resources, so that the economic, social, and aesthetic needs can be met, while maintaining cultural integrity, essential ecological processes, biological diversity and systems. of life support ". Therefore, we are fully committed to taking care of the environment, we comply with all the obligations that the law establishes regarding social insurance, salaries, policies and others. We are affiliated with the code of conduct, to avoid the sexual exploitation of minors in tourist companies. Continuous improvement at a steady pace has always been our philosophy, that's why today we have the CST tourism sustainability certification, awarded by the Costa Rican Tourism Institute. The maximum category is 5 sheets, of which we have 4. This categorization aims to encourage the development of the management of the best possible standard in sustainable practices.
