Manifesto

The document in your hands is very important for us. It is, at the same time, a guide that will explain why this is not a conventional Farm and a record of our learning process, experimentation, and dissemination of more sustainable habits and practices. Of course, it is not mandatory that you read it to stay/work with us, but we are convinced that the information that we have condensed here can be very enriching for you, so we invite you to take advantage of some of your rest moments to read all.

Behind this document, there are mainly three objectives:

    1. Expose our vision of the world.
    2. Contagiate other people with our interest in doing things in a way that is more respectful to the planet.
    3. Share ideas that can be applied in other similar initiatives, in your office, your university, your coworking space, in your home, everywhere. We hope to convey interesting and inspiring information, and encourage you, together with us, to be part of the changes we all need to make to preserve the wealth of this wonderful planet.

About Us  at Finca Al Limón Ecolodge

As you have probably already noticed, this is not a conventional place or a common event space. Most spaces like ours or conventional ones tend to work under the logic of waste and “comfort at any price” … and we do not believe that this is a fair way – nor logical! We operate on a planet that has limited resources, and that is inhabited by intelligent and sensitive people, who know that they can find real comfort without destroying their environment.

The “comfort at any price” model offered by conventional hotels has been happening to the planet for decades, and we are all paying for it, facing increasingly violent and unpredictable climatic events, increasingly fragile ecosystems, air ever more and more polluted, fresh and drinking water increasingly scarce. In short: an impoverished and at-risk planet, as a result of, among other things, that we have become accustomed to looking away, not to face the impact generated by our daily actions … and also the not so everyday actions like travel and spending a few days in a hotel, cottage or attend a special event.

That is why we want to offer a different experience that shows you that comfort and wellbeing do not have to be synonymous with wasting resources and that it is perfectly possible to enjoy your trip and your days of rest without leaving behind you an everlasting trace of environmental destruction and social imbalance.

Our manifesto may sound alarming but hey, it’s time to face the music and, with over twenty years of experience working in the eco field, we are here to show you how real change can be made in a simple and fun way.
