This area, like many other locations in Costa Rica, is filled with various flora and fauna. Guests can commune with nature on a more personal level as they interact with the animals that visit the nearby areas of the rooms every day. Staying at Serenity Gardens will allow people to get back to nature as well as live an eco-friendly lifestyle.<\/p>\n

\"serenity<\/a>Serenity Garden is not just an eco-resort and living community. It is also a place where people can learn to thrive using the resources that the land has to offer. The amenities include a community center where the residents can mingle and conduct social and family gatherings. They also have a school that teaches permaculture, yoga, health and wellness. There will be various gardens that boasts patches of local flora, as well as an organic herb and vegetable garden for a self-sustainable food source. Not only that, but there will also be an artificial tilapia pool where people can go fishing for food, not sport.<\/p>\n

\"serenity<\/a>Serenity Garden has 130 home sites that are available for custom designed houses or pre-designed houses. The eco-village\u2019s architects have prepared a selection of models that the future residents can choose from. Each lot is big enough to accommodate a small family, as well as their own herb garden and a small chicken coop.<\/p>\n

All of the housing designs and ideas offered focus on green building. This means that the houses will be maximized through outdoor living spaces and systematic ventilation for natural air flow. Aside from that, Serenity Gardens has a self-sustaining power source that consists of solar wind and mini hydro stations.<\/p>\n

The eco village will be populated with fruit trees, edible landscape and fish ponds. Aside from the 130 acres of residential lands, the rest will consist of the surrounding virgin forests and the community facilities needed to sustain the eco village. With these kinds of facilities, who would not want to stay at Serenity Gardens?<\/p>\n
