Casa Ceibo first property in South America to win AAHS designation
Casa Ceibo Boutique Hotel & Spa has become the first recipient of the Five Star Green Award in South America. The property, in Bahia de Caraquez, Ecuador, won that eco-honor from the American Academy of Hospitality Services (AAHS).
“Casa Ceibo delivers an exceptionally luxurious experience, yet many aspects of the property, its services and people fulfill a mission of environmental, cultural and social consciousness that's downright extraordinary,” said Karen Dixon, AAHS's international general manager.
The 18-room hotel's sustainable features include its use of local artisans and craftsmen to build the property and its efforts to reforest the mangroves that buffer the property. The locale was founded by Destin, Fla.-based developer Charles Van Diver, and Daniel Jacome, a Galapagos guide and drummer for the Ecuadoran rock band, Tercer Mundo.
