The World's Story is Yours to Tell

Rancho de Caldera Eco-Project Now Green Globe Certified

We are pleased that Rancho de Caldera has achieved its Green Globe Certification.

To certify our sustainability and green management, we must adhere to a majority of the many criteria included in the Green Globe Standard – which is based on internationally accepted and recognized documentation.

On its website, Green Globe states:

“Green Globe is the leading green certification for the travel and tourism industry and its supply chain worldwide. Only businesses awarded the Green Globe seal can claim to be independently recognized as sustainable.

Our objective is to introduce and strengthen sustainability and social practices at all levels of management.

Green Globe Certification is an efficient and paperless process, verified by accredited third-party auditors and fully compliant with ISO/IEC 17021.”

Some of the criteria that Rancho de Caldera meets include:
Recycling
Composting and Food Donation Program
Use of Green, Bio-Degradable Cleaning Products
Hiring and Training of Local Residents
Environmentally-Friendly supplies used whenever possible and available
Use of indigenous plants as natural insecticides in fruit orchard
Salt system in pool
Lo-Flush Toilets
Towel and Linen Reuse Program in Place
Renewable Energy Sources Used (Hydro-Electric, Solar and Wind; Totally Off the Grid )
Energy Efficient Lighting
High Efficiency (EnergyStar) Equipment and Appliances
Roof-top Garden above Restaurant
Home Grown Food or Locally Purchased Whenever Possible

At Rancho de Caldera, we are excited to be a part of the Green Globe community and look forward to implementing additional green policies and actions so that we further enhance the environment that we are so fortunate to have discovered here in Boquete, Panama.

Sustainability is one of our highest priorities here and we are grateful to Green Globe for its guidance and commitment to eco-tourism around the world.
