Recently, the Grand Collection by Hilton Botanica Osa Peninsula was officially unveiled.
Where the blue sea and the green rainforest meet, the hotel has created a luxurious accommodation in the realm of nature, making nature the host of hospitality, and bringing the romance of the sea and the enthusiasm of the rainforest to the fullest.
Costa Rica has a Corcovado National Park, which is rich in species. Hundreds of trees grow in the national park, the rings of time swirl among these towering trees, and the deciduous ground is wet, soft but elastic. Toucans roam proudly through the woods, monkeys roam freely, water droplets hitting the foliage, playing a pleasant symphony. In it, the soul seems to be banished to nature.

Vibrant ecological nature shocks the senses, and Corcovado National Park has quickly become a hotspot for ecotourism. As people's enthusiasm for ecotourism grows, hotel groups have also begun to focus on the eco-tourism market.
Recently, the Grand Collection by Hilton Botanica Osa Peninsula was officially unveiled. The hotel is rooted on the edge of The Corcovado National Park, adjacent to the tropical fjord "Sweet Bay".

The Grove Collection by Hilton Botanica Osa Peninsula is like a tree that "grows" in a lush rainforest that blends in with the original forest. The hotel covers an area of 85,000 square meters, and in the green that almost drowns everything, it protrudes into a shady area. In this sanctuary, guests can enjoy costa Rican hospitality without leaving their homes: the secluded turquoise misty forest outside the window is the most outstanding painting, the monkey cries and birdsong in the valley are the most beautiful music, and the oxygen released by the plants is unforgettable.

The hotel has 44 different rainforest suites in different configurations, such as 1, 2 and 3 bedrooms, each with floor-to-ceiling windows, fully equipped kitchens, oversized terraces and private rooftop lounges. Mediterranean-inspired room design and garden design give the hotel a strong resort atmosphere, creating a sense of tranquil comfort. The hotel plans to expand the suites to 123 rooms in 2023.

The designer blurs the dividing lines between indoor and outdoor spaces. Guests don't have to step out of the warm and comfortable rooms, with spacious balconies and transparent floor-to-ceiling windows that welcome the four-hour view into the room. Wooden furniture, simple color schemes, and occasional bright flowers dotted with them, the combination of minimalism and brilliance collides with the ultimate beauty, exquisite and wild. At dawn, light and shadow pass through the rattan-woven furniture, sprinkling dappled shadows on the walls, as if depicting the outline of the rainforest.

The hotel service is even more meticulous. Upon arrival at their destination, hotel staff will greet guests at the airport and lead them on a short shuttle bus to the hotel. After checking in at the concierge desk, a member of staff will guide them to the booked room. The hotel has all the facilities, including 4 high-end restaurants, 1 cocktail bar and 1 fitness center.
After a day of warm sunshine, feel free to choose a restaurant to enjoy and experience Costa Rica with your taste buds. When night goes down, you can also step into the cocktail bar, order a mixed cocktail, and then join the dancing crowd on the dance floor to the dynamic music.

Hotels want to give their guests a fun, unique and even unique experience. During the stay, the hotel will arrange a variety of outdoor activities for guests, blending the comfortable and luxurious living experience with the fun of the mountains and wilderness, and encouraging visitors to learn about environmental protection while traveling, and contribute to the local environmental protection cause.
At The Corio Select by Hilton Botanica Osa Peninsula, guests will be spoilt for choice at The Grotto, guests will find endless possibilities to explore national parks, forest reserves and beaches. Scientists from Stanford, the University of Miami and the University of Saskatchewan will guide visitors deep into the local natural environment and engage with wildlife. Scientists also teach visitors about marine life and invite them to participate in research.
To engage travelers in local conservation efforts, the hotel conducts beach cleanups in the community and protects turtle eggs through local sea turtle conservation projects. In addition, The Grove Collection by Hilton Botanica Osa Peninsula has partnered with non-profit organizations to save endangered wildlife and has hosted the largest insect museum in southern Costa Rica, featuring more than 6,000 species of insects endemic to Costa Rica.
As national parks advance on the mainland, perhaps we should all see the potential for ecotourism. Nature conservation and tourism development can be mutually successful: on the one hand, the natural environment is the basis for the development of ecotourism, and natural landscapes and natural resources are important factors in attracting tourists; On the other hand, the natural environment also needs the support and guarantee of the tourism industry. The establishment of ecological hotels and matching the environmental protection science and education experience is a good way for the tourism development of national parks at this stage.
