The forest, standing
Being an eco-resort is not a slogan: it is how we have operated since 1993.
Looking for Sustainability? At El Tucano Resort & Thermal Spa you enjoy Sustainability surrounded by the rainforest of San Carlos, Costa Rica, with natural hot springs and tropical nature.
Heat from the earth, not from boilers
The pools are fed by a natural thermo-mineral river: the volcano provides the energy. Around them, 24 acres of primary forest we keep standing, with low-impact trails and respect for the wildlife that was here before us.
What the commitment looks like
WATER
Geothermal energy
Naturally hot water, no artificial heaters.
FOREST

COMMUNITY
