Our Sustainability Practices
Education & Awareness: We invite our guests, visitors, and staff to save water and energy through signage in rooms, bathrooms, and common areas, raising awareness about responsible resource use, especially water and energy.
Energy Saving: All lighting uses low-energy bulbs, mostly warm lights to minimize environmental disruption in our rural setting. Common areas also run on solar energy.
Rainwater Use: We collect rainwater for irrigation and basic tasks.
Hydro Spa: Our communal whirlpool bath is fully insulated with foam for optimal heat retention and a thermal cover. It meets strict California Energy Commission (CEC) standards for energy-efficient spas.
- Trees: Even with limited land, we preserve green areas and existing trees. We also planted many native trees, including Yarumo, Magnolia Jardinensis, Romerón, Colombian pine, Drago, and Cedar.
- Own Vegetable Garden: We maintain a small garden providing ingredients for our kitchen, such as carrots, tomatoes, lettuce, peppers, cilantro, basil, strawberries, mint, rosemary, and oregano.
- Eco Design: Our rooms are designed for air circulation and built with materials that naturally regulate temperature, reducing the need for air conditioning.
- Composting: We have a simple composting system for all organic waste, producing excellent fertilizer without odors or attracting animals.
- Sustainable Containers: At our viewpoint selling food and drinks, we avoid single-use plastic bottles and non-recyclable products.
- Internal Recycling Programs: We carefully separate waste to maximize reuse and sustainability.
