Costa Rica’s Hotel W and Westin Reserva Conchal are Internationally Recognized

The W Hotel and Westin Reserva Conchal, located within Reserva Conchal in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, achieved the highest distinctions awarded by the Marriott International group as the best hotels in their category and the region. 

Both hotels achieved extraordinary distinctions: The W Hotel attained the highest accolade in the MILUX division, which refers to Marriott International’s category of luxury hotels. Meanwhile, the Westin Reserva Conchal hotel obtained regional recognition in the Premium category. 

“This recognition from the Marriott chain delights us and motivates us to continue working to reach new milestones within the industry, always leveraging our sustainable philosophy, which has led us to achieve great things over the years,” noted Fabian Fernández, FIFCO’s hospitality division manager.

“The company celebrates these recognitions as a sign of the commitment towards leading the hotel business in the area to the next level. For FIFCO, sustainability is essential in developing all its business lines and a strategic pillar because the planet, the communities, and the customers we serve every day demand it,” added Maria Pía Robles, FIFCO’s Corporate Relations Manager.
