Commitment to Sustainability
Aguila de Osa Inn has always looked at the local community of Aguitas at Drake’s Bay. Bradd Johnson, the owner of Aguila de Osa, has become one of the leaders of the community by organizing events, transport for the community in the event of an emergency, and worked to expand the school system that supports children up through high school. Bradd has also worked to have a health clinic with a rotating resident doctor living at the clinic for a year at a time. Aguila de Osa started a recycling program for the community in Drake’s Bay by collecting all of the recyclables on a weekly basis then transports the material to the town of Sierpe an eventually back to San Jose. |
