Biointensive Agrarian Method

The secret behind Belmar’s delicious dishes & beverages can be traced to the adoption of the Biointensive Agrarian Method. This eco-farming approach maximizes crop variety and yields on small-scale plots through water conservation, natural pest controls, and organic soil enrichment

Regenerative dining

Onsite vegetable gardens, the nearby Finca Madre Tierra, Restaurante Celajes, and the Belmar Brewery create the regenerative cycles that distinguish Hotel Belmar’s commitment to long-term sustainability. The first two provide fresh herbs, vegetables, shade-grown coffee, fresh artisanal cheese, free-range eggs, and seasonal favorites including avocado, guava, bananas, plantain, rose apples, malanga, and more. Farm-to-table at its finest!
