The Buena Vista Hotel contributes to social well-being and the environment. Our community support programs focus on schools through a project to donate learning materials (there is more information on our Web site; guests are invited to bring any materials that the children might need for their classroom courses). We support the Catholic Church in events such as bingo nights and raffles, and we offer food when a priest from outside the area visits.

We have recycling and energy and water conservation programs to help the environment.
