This September 27th World Tourism Day is celebrated across the globe “(…) to raise awareness on the role of tourism within the international community and to demonstrate how it affects social, cultural, political and economic values worldwide”, according to the UN World Tourism Organization.
Sustainability is an increasingly important trend within the tourism industry, which Costa Rica has been catering to for many years. Costa Rica has frequently been named one of the world’s leading destinations in terms of ecotourism, focusing on environmental conservation and education as well as the support and empowerment of local communities.
Small Distinctive Hotels is a select group of eight luxurious boutique hotel members located in the most beautiful natural surroundings of Costa Rica. The conservation of these environments and empowerment of local communities therefore forms a substantial part of the philosophy. In this context each hotel plans to organize an event on and around World Tourism Day in order to raise awareness among staff and tourists equally, on the importance of both social and natural environment for truly successful tourism.
