Monday, September 16, 2024 Costa Rica’s eco-friendly Hotel Belmar has revealed its carefully curated room renovations, completed this summer. These updated spaces seamlessly blend the hotel’s commitment to nature with the contemporary comforts guests seek. The project, led by local designers from NAAS Interior Culture, reimagined the guest experience by balancing modern design with the hotel’s lush forest backdrop.
Rooms feature natural elements like wood and earthy tones, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Almost all of the ecolodge’s 26 rooms underwent this transformation. Mid-century modern touches, with clean lines and practical furniture, enhance both style and comfort.
Luxurious fabrics, like velvet, and natural fibers introduce texture, while responsibly sourced materials like sustainable wood, low VOC paints, and organic textiles emphasize environmental consciousness. The upgrades invite guests to soak in natural light and enjoy forest sounds, allowing a smooth transition between indoor comfort and outdoor serenity. The newly renovated Sunrise Room, for instance, offers a private balcony with sweeping views of the cloud forest and Nicoya Peninsula, providing a stunning backdrop for relaxation.
Locally crafted art and designs were thoughtfully integrated throughout the hotel, celebrating Costa Rica’s cultural heritage and giving each space a distinct, authentic feel. The renovations underscore Hotel Belmar’s commitment to eco-conscious luxury, offering a sustainable yet indulgent experience for travelers who prioritize both comfort and environmental responsibility. This thoughtful redesign has transformed the rooms into serene, eco-friendly retreats, perfect for those seeking an unforgettable and mindful getaway.
Pedro Belmar, Managing Director of Hotel Belmar , said: “We are excited to collaborate with NAAS to evolve the aesthetics of Hotel Belmar’s rooms and interiors. Preserving our historical features and reflecting the cultural values of our surrounding community are paramount, even as we elevate the overall guest experience. This partnership is perfectly aligned with our commitment to thoughtful design processes that honor organic growth and fluid evolution.
We are delighted to inspire a design that captures our vision of sustainability, ensuring every enhancement supports our long-standing dedication to environmental stewardship.”.
