Bird watching, whale watching and other ecotourism activities are available in the area. The inhabitants of the nearby fishing village of Malena are devoted to protecting the Sea Turtles which visit to lay their eggs on Malena beach.

There is a parking lot for guests and a workshop and extra storage in a building behind the hotel. With nearly 8 hectares available, there is plenty of space for expanding current activities and/or adding new accommodations.

The Azuero Sunset Coast is an emerging tourism destination. The area has many natural attractions such as beautiful beaches, some safe for swimming, others excellent for surfing, quiet in shore areas for SUP and kayak trips. Further South, the Cerro Hoya National Park is covered in virgin tropical forest that is home to macaws, monkeys, jaguars and more.

Recently several other entrepreneurs have started businesses in the area, offering local and international cuisine, yoga and wellness, horse riding, parapente and big game fishing.

From the Forward Thinking Owners:

"Our Commitment to Sustainability It is our aim to keep our foot print as small as possible.

To attain that goal we do or have done the following:

We bought 8 hectares of grazing pasture which we have reforested with native trees, shrubs and flowers. Among them species that are considered endangered in Panama (Mahogany, Rosewood) threatened or vulnerable. As a result, we now have more than 100 species of birds living on or visiting our property. Among them the sapphire-throated hummingbird, which is endangered in Panama. We also get visitors from north America, among them the rare mangrove cuckoo, prothonotary warblers and eastern kingbirds.

We have installed LED lights and energy saving light bulbs wherever possible.

We harvest rainwater from the roof. This water is filtered and treated to make it safe for human consumption.

We installed on-demand electric water heaters.

We provide a 4 stroke outboard motor to our partner/captain for our boat trips to replace his 2 stroke motor. A 4-stroke is much more efficient, cleaner & quieter and uses 30% less fuel and 90% less oil.

We support two local associations, the Malena Turtle Protection Association and the Quebro Agro-Ecological Association. Both are working to protect turtle nests and the mangrove areas. We encourage our guests to visit these associations.

We separate our garbage. Organic waste goes to the compost pile, bottles are re-used wherever possible and we recycle whatever recycle companies will accept.

Waste water is treated and filtered on-site and then channeled to a leach field on our property.

We are a member of the Panamanian Foundation of Sustainable Tourism (Fundación Panameña de Turismo Sostenible) and support the latest developments in ECO-tourism. We also participate in a pilot project introducing an ECO-certification for Panamanian tourism companies."

This wonderful property combines a business opportunity with the chance to do great things for the world and to live a magnificent lifestyle.
