Hotel Santa Barbara: A Luxurious and Sustainable Investment in the Heart of the mountains of Costa Rica.
Perched in the tranquil mountain region of Santa Barbara, Heredia, Hotel Santa Barbara is a 4-star boutique hotel offering a rare blend of luxury and sustainability. Surrounded by verdant coffee farms and lush nature, this exceptional hospitality investment features 14 uniquely designed rooms and villas. Each accommodation boasts a private balcony, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the tropical climate and breathtaking natural views while enjoying modern comforts.
Since its humble beginnings in 1989, as a 6-room country inn, Hotel Santa Barbara has evolved into a recognized destination with the addition of two luxurious villas, three main suites, and three junior suites. The hotel's amenities include a chemical-free pool, spa, gourmet restaurant, library, and the only conference and events room in the area.
Emphasizing sustainability, the hotel is equipped with solar photovoltaic panels for hot water and electricity, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint. The farm-to-table restaurant sources organic vegetables and herbs from the on-site greenhouse, complemented by shade-grown organic coffee cultivated on an adjacent property. These and other sustainable practices, have earned the hotel the status of ELITE in the Certification of Sustainable Tourism (CST), positioning it as a leader in eco-luxury.
The hotel's design reflects a deep commitment to local craftsmanship, featuring in-house manufactured furniture, detailed woodwork, and a collection of murals and movable art by local artists. The expansive gardens and trails invite guests to explore the surrounding natural beauty, while in-depth coffee tours offer a rich educational experience on organic farming practices.
With high occupancy rates, an attractive average daily rate, and a strong return on investment, Hotel Santa Barbara presents an unparalleled opportunity to invest in Costa Rica's thriving ecotourism market, where luxury meets sustainability.
