The best eco-lodges for conscious travelers… and why Buena Vista del Rincón stands out
Today, more than ever, traveling comes with a very clear question:

At Buena Vista del Rincón, sustainability is not a trend—it’s a way of operating, coexisting, and protecting the environment.
What defines a true eco-lodge?
An eco-lodge is not defined simply by being surrounded by nature.
It’s defined by how it relates to that nature.
A genuine eco-lodge should:
- Minimize its environmental impact
- Protect local flora and fauna
- Use resources responsibly (water, energy, land)
- Integrate into the landscape, not impose itself on it
- Generate real benefits for the local community
In short: the place adapts to nature, not the other way around.
