Myself and my wife are looking for investors and lenders to help us build an eco friendly wellness resort and farm workshop. In current times we have all witnessed a massive change in the Earths eco system. Through climate change, depletion of the soils nutrients that grow our food and supposedly nourish us, factory farming, It is obvious that the we are not living in a sustainable world, it is not a world our children will thrive in.
By helping us to build an eco friendly wellness retreat and sustainable farm, we can provide insight to our guests on how sustainable living can really benefit not only themselves but our entire planet. The workshops that we will provide will be fun and insightful. Then at the end of the day they can relax in the pool or comfortably on their own private deck.
Through research we have found many wellness retreats or farm tours, what we haven't seen is something like what we want to provide; a collaboration of a wellness center, farming tours and workshops plus comfortable living areas combined as one eco business. There is a hole in the market and that's where our niche will excel. This is a unique opportunity for any investor to join us on this exciting adventure.
RESORT
Costa Rica eco based retreat/resort and farming workshops:
•luxury jungle units sleeping up to six - bedroom, bathroom, kitchen/living space.
•naturally filtered solar run pool/ spa - solar powered pump and aquatic plants for filtration
•recreation area with bar - rental options for guest parties will also double up for workshop food demonstrations
•yoga and wellness treatments - sun up sun down yoga classes, multiple spa treatments throughout the day
• sustainable farm with farm to table workshops - get involved in our daily farm tasks, harvesting crops and preparing your own meals, plus cocoa tours; learn how it grows and taste the rewards.
IDEA
Starting with three units and growing to between six and ten these eco friendly luxury units will be run using solar wind and/or water. Once built they will be almost self sufficient except for general maintenance. Each unit will be self contained and private, including bedrooms, bathroom, living area, kitchen/dining area and outdoor deck space.
By collecting food, human and animal waste we can use this to make compost and the gas emissions created from this will be stored as a usable gas for cooking and heating by using a bio digester system.
The pool and spa area will be powered by solar and filtered using a natural approach that uses aquatic plants to keep the water clear and safe so the additional cost of chlorine/ salt and other additives will be next to none.
The yearly income based on a 75% capacity for just three units will earn a minimum of $125,000. Once established, having six units, the wellness center and the food workshops and tours in place, we are hoping for an annual income of $661,500.
Based on these numbers, our initial staff will be minimal but as our return increases we will be able to allow for more employees providing jobs for the local workers.
Alliances have been made with local solar specialists;
Costa Rica Solar Specialist- provide installation of the solar and wind powered energy source.
GeoSeed- geothermal eco homes will also be involved in building the units. Plus local trades people in the construction of the units.
Closer to the time of opening we will be recruiting resident estheticians, massage therapists, front of house receptionist and farm staff.
ABOUT US
Project leader and CEO Gary Andrews is a qualified arborist / horticulturist with over 18 years of experience in this field. I am also a qualified carpenter/ general contractor with 15 years experience in over three countries building houses/ eco lodges and leading construction projects.
I grew up in a farming community so I learned a respect for animals and nature which has inspired my life interests in permaculture.
Along with my wife Chloe, whilst living in France we partnered in our property maintenance in the South of France.
My wife Chloe has been raising our three children for the last seven years. Prior to this, she along with myself managed a property maintenance/management company in the south of France, in which we managed vacation rentals dealing with guest meet and greets, pool cleaning, change overs and everything in between.
When living in England she managed a café in which she greeted customers front of house, cooked and prepared meals, created new and exciting menus, plus other managerial tasks.
GOAL
After a two year turnaround we will build another three or more units. The workshops along with a wellness retreat center will provide us with an additional $661,500 annually.
Our goal is to provide relaxing spa treatments, yoga fitness classes, meditation and more. The farm to table workshops will include learning about the local produce and what we grow, along with planting and harvesting food, guests will be able to completely immersed themselves in our eco village haven. They will leave our resort feeling recharged, rejuvenated and hopefully with a new sense of awareness for the environment.
Thank you for reading our proposal.
