Owner and operator of Eco Tropical Resorts
At this point I have added well over 300 eco lodges to the site. They are so varied and present themselves in so many different ways I think it’s hard to think of them all in one breath, and yet they’re all on this site.  There seem to be two main types of eco lodges with […]
We have choices in the kinds of hotels/lodges that we stay in. We can stay in places that impact the environment as little as possible or we can choose high impact hotels. The same holds true for many other areas of life. My brother runs The Social Equity Group based in the San Francisco Bay […]
I received a flyer about an upcoming series of events to view, observe and photograph neotropical butterlies in their natural habitat. The event is conducted by Jean Michael Maes Ph.D and Eric Van Den Berghe Ph.D. Dates: June 15 to June 21, 2007 June 30 to July 6, 2007 July 13 to July 19, 2007 July 28 […]
A friend is spending two months down in Panama in various areas. He just got back from visiting the San Blas Islands off Panama a couple of weeks ago. While there he had a wonderful time and wanted me to include the place he stayed in my Ecotourism Lodge Directlory. The only problem is that the […]
I’ve just added Monkey Bay Wildlife Sanctuary in Belize to Eco Tropical Resorts. The sanctuary is located in Belize, Central America. This is a new kind of listing as their focus is an environmental education center that offers experiential learning programs and training opportunities while serving as a model of conservation land stewardship. They also have […]
I am constantly looking for eco lodges in the Tropics that have websites so that I can add them to my directory. Nigeria is one country that I have not yet been able to find one in. I was heartened when I read about the following: At the 11th Africa Travel Association conference held recently, President Olusegun Obasanjo […]
When I read different posts and writings about ecotourism I have yet to read anything about India Homestays. It seems to me that they are probably a type of accommodation that has the least impact on the environment. For one, they are already there because it is a home that is opened up for visitors […]
I just added a new lodge in The Gambia, Africa. It’s called Footsteps Lodge, their website is Footsteps Eco-Lodge Gambia. This is the first lodge that I’ve added to my ecotourism lodge directory that has stressed disabled access. I’m really impressed by this. They’ve constructed their lodge on one level so that it is […]
I added an Eco lodge in Sri Lanka yesterday called the Kumbuk River Lodge. Whenever I add a lodge I try to contact the owners or managers to make sure that they are promoting sustainable tourism. Dinesh, the owner, had this to say about the travelers warnings in Sri Lanka “It is true that we […]
