Courtyard by Marriott San José Airport Alajuela consolidates its management model based on ESG criteria

The Courtyard by Marriott San José Airport Alajuela hotel operates under a comprehensive approach to corporate sustainability, structured around an ESG strategy that integrates environmental, social, and governance pillars. This model aims to optimize resource management, generate a positive impact on the environment, and strengthen responsible practices within the hotel industry.

On the environmental front, the property implements a series of initiatives focused on energy efficiency and the responsible use of resources. These include the installation of LED lighting throughout the infrastructure, water preheating systems using solar thermal energy, and technologies that reduce water consumption in both operational areas and guest spaces.

The hotel also has wastewater treatment processes that comply with current Costa Rican regulations, as well as waste management programs that include separation, recycling, and disposal through authorized waste management companies. These actions are complemented by initiatives to promote biodiversity, such as the installation of bee hotels, and by environmental education programs for staff, focusing on topics such as climate change and natural resource conservation.

The social component of the strategy is reflected in corporate volunteering programs, in which employees actively participate in community initiatives, as well as in actions aimed at promoting diversity and equity. The hotel also participates in networks and programs that promote the creation of safe environments, including specific initiatives for the protection of women travelers and the prevention of exploitation in the tourism sector.

Through this approach, Courtyard by Marriott San José Airport Alajuela strengthens its position as an establishment that integrates responsible practices into its daily operations, aligning its offering with international standards and current demands of sustainable tourism.
