Sustainability at Lapa Rios
Lapa Rios Lodge was carefully designed with the aim of protecting the rainforest and supporting the local community. It has a low-impact construction and employs conservation practices such as solar power, rainwater collection, and waste recycling. Lapa Rios utilises locally-sourced biodegradable products and organic foods as much as possible. The staff are all local, and Lapa Rios invests in educating their team, the local community, and guests at the lodge about the importance of sustainability.
Your stay includes a Conservation Support Contribution, ensuring a direct contribution to fund local conservation projects. If you want to get hands-on you can also take a guided sustainability tour to learn more about these initiatives, and even plant your own tree in the protected rainforest reserve.
