You could do a lot worse for an eco-friendly, environmentally sensitive Costa Rican getaway than Los Altos Resort, but it’d be hard to do much better.

“My mother was an angel upon earth. She was a minister of blessing to all human beings within her sphere of action. Her heart was the abode of heavenly purity. She had no feelings but of kindness and beneficence; yet her mind was as firm as her temper was mild and gentle. She had known sorrow, but her sorrow was silent. She was acquainted with grief, but it was deposited in her own bosom. She was the real personification of female virtue, of piety, of charity, of ever active and never intermitting benevolence. She has been a spirit from above watching over me for good, and contributing by my mere consciousness of her existence to the comfort of my life. ” — John Quincy Adams, 1818
