Latitude 10 is proud to be a sustainable hotel that not only connects guests with nature, but respects it in all areas of operation.
“Sustainability is the ability to provide for the needs of the world's
current population without damaging the ability of future generations
to provide for themselves. When a process is sustainable, it can be carried
out over and over without negative environmental effects or impossibly
high costs to anyone involved.”
 To recognize communities that respect and take care of the beaches with a strong commitment to ecological preservation, the national water utility, Aqueductos y Alcantarillados, in partnership with the Instituto Costarricense de Turismo began ranking beaches in 1996. Beaches that received a score of 90% or greater Bandera received an Azul Ecológica (ecological blue flag) to fly as a symbol of excellence. The Malpais/Santa Teresa area beaches have proudly flown the blue flag since 2001.
