We have a marine turtle protection program to preserve these endangered species. Every year, turtles come to lay their eggs on our beach and in 2009, we contributed to the release of almost 9,000 turtles.
We have adopted a local school through our foundation. Financial and material donations, including those from guests, contribute to the improvement of conditions in which local children study. Also, reusable eco-bags are sold in our boutique and for each bag sold, we donate $1 USD to the local elementary school or other organizations.
Our tour operator, Ancila Tours, practices responsible tourism and offers eco-tours to discover the richness of the region.
Conferences on the Mayan culture are part of our activity program.
We participated in the restoration of the mangrove after the devastating hurricane.
Also, through our sustainable purchasing policy, we avoid the purchase of endangered species, especially fish.
