Don’t you love it when you can do well by doing good? “Going Green” does not have to be like wearing a recycled organic hair shirt- you can enjoy life while helping to preserve it!



The Greentique Hotels in Costa Rica are not only offering a hefty discount for Rainforest Alliance members, but more importantly, they will donate 5% of your hotel  fees back to the Rainforest Alliance in your name to support their work of conserving rainforest.



I went to Costa Rica a few years back with my daughter’s high school class (Hey, someone had to chaperone those boys around my daughter). It was an unforgettable experience for both the natural beauty of Costa Rica and for the “green” awareness everywhere we went. From turtle patrols on the Caribbean side to save those endangered giants, to counting macaws in the Pacific coast rainforest, and planting trees in the Central highlands, protecting the environment is Costa Rica’s middle name- and eco-tourism one of its biggest businesses.

With hotels in three of Costa Rica's most amazing climate zones - The Central Highlands, Central Pacific Coast, and The Osa Peninsula , the Greentique Hotels run  a world-class model of sustainable green operations, so you can travel well and travel right all across this beautiful country.



Rainforest Alliance works with business and local communities to help conserve rainforest, while preserving cultures and sustaining viable economies for local people as well.

So maybe this winter is the time to take that Costa Rican vacation you’ve been dreaming of. You can play Oceanopolis and help the real oceans, and stay at the Greentique Hotels and help the rainforest and local people all while having an unforgettable time.
