the concept
Monte Azul is conceived as a place where guests can come to be inspired by nature, while not having to sacrifice comfort and style. We offer unusual activities designed for those who seek an excep- tional travel experience.
Monte Azul, where your vacation is a work of art
It's been difficult to describe Monte Azul in terms of conventional business models. Although terms like hotel, nature preserve, artist retreat or eco-lodge may describe Monte Azul each in a separate context, the terms are still too limiting in describing the complete experience our guests can have here.
We integrate art, nature, community and business at Monte Azul with the hopes that it would be a place where others could come and be inspired.
