COSTA RICA

We support the local communities, police, schools, children's advocacy groups, beach clean ups, animal rescue centers and clinics, a variety of local charities, several environmental projects and local, national and international surf competitions... Our waste water treatment facility supplies clean water for our reforestation projects and gardens. We even planted a rice field at the beach to cultivate a Costa Rican heritage rice that was going extinct. Lola's has eliminated all plastic cups, bottles, carry-out containers and straws. We have installed solar panels and will be off the grid as soon as better and cheaper batteries are available here. Lola's is climate neutral and has been since we opened in 1998. We hire locally, pay our staff a sustainable living wage and think of our loyal and conscientious employees as family... We had so much fun at Lola's. We were told to drive out a dirt road to the middle of nowhere, and we would find this amazing place. Well we did, and we found..
