Eco-Lodge & Glamping: Erection of self-sufficient luxury tents or cabins on the panorama platforms. Self-sufficient emigration: Perfect for individualists who want to be completely independent thanks to the enormous abundance of water.
Green Investment: Preservation of Costa Rica's green lungs while at the same time taking advantage of government subsidies.
