The Certification in Sustainable Tourism Program - CST - is a product of the Costa Rican Tourism Institute (ICT). CST was designed to differentiate tourism sector businesses based on the degree to which they comply with a sustainable model of environmental, cultural and social resource management. This package features three of the three hotels, two of which that have reached the highest level achievable in the sustainability program (level 5). These hotels offer luxury, adventure and the feeling that one is truly contributing to the environment during your stay there.
