Have had the greatest pleasure of meeting Louis and staying at his comfortable, casual eco-hotel. What he has accomplished in terms of conservation for Playa Grande and surrounding area is wonderful. Hats' off to you Louis! Share this!
Thank you Louis Wilson for having helped so much in founding and preserving the Tamarindo Estuary Nature Resserve and Las Baulas National Park ! What a great story amigo !!! Blessings . 🙏❤️
Como no amarte Costa Rica , como no amar a tu pueblo que me ha recibido dado educación, techo y trabajo. Tambien me diste la oportunidad de conocer a mi esposo Oliver y aunque mi hija no nacio aqui, fue en esta tierra dondeaprendio a dar sus primeros pasos y donde se ha educado y desarrollado. Gracias a Dios por este pais tan bello a quien defenderia con mi vida y a su gente, de la cual yo tambien me siento parte. TE AMO COSTA RICA
Hola Sandra muchas gracias 🙏 por esas palabras tan hermosas y por la forma como se expresa con tanto cariño hacia mi amada tierra Costa Rica 🇨🇷 y hacia toda su gente. Veo este vídeo y otro que encontré también de Costa Rica de este mismo canal y me salen las lágrimas de la nostalgia, extraño tanto mi linda Costa Rica, a mi familia y a toda su gente. Actualmente vivo en Marsella Francia, desde 2014 estoy lejos de mi tierra y ya llevo 3 años sin poder visitar mi país, anhelo tanto poder estar ahí otra vez pues los 2 últimos años no pude ir debido a esta pandemia, pero espero muy pronto ya poder ir otra vez si Dios lo permite y poder reunirme de nuevo con mi gente. Le envío un cordial saludo desde Marsella Francia y nuevamente gracias por todo el amor y cariño que tiene y siente hacia mi país y hacia toda su gente. Bendiciones Pura Vida amiga ✌️😊👍
So incredibly amazing. My kids and I stayed at your beautiful place. It made our experience in Costa an unforgettable. We loved the monkeys swinging by the pool in the morning.
I drove to costa rica with my father from california... Then drove back to california... then 10 years later we drove back down to costa rica from california.. now i flew back to california and really want to get the fuck out of this place and go back to costa rica where all my family stayed.
Truly an ex-pat pioneer from the "early days".. Many moons ago, I along with several others were partners in Casa Azul (the tiles on the roof are blue)..a beach house within walking distance from the main town of Tamarindo..when dirt roads were the commonplace. Returned last year November/2013..and was really surprised at the Americanization of Tamarindo by Norte Americanos..too many folks from the States which have changed the environment (both social and physical) to the negative. Guys like the fellow and his wife who are opposed to blank construction and the desecration of the natural environment are perhaps only a few who stand behind the ideology of preservation of this really unique place. I supposed it is hard to stop "progress"..but, those in power should know that once "it is gone"..it is gone forever. Enjoy it now.
He tenido la oportunidad de visitar cuatro paises aparte del nuestro... y puedo decirles que el relieve de nuestra Nacion es precioso, bellisimo, lleno de verde muchos arboles por doquier. si bien estructuralmente estamos muy atras, eso es debido a que hemos tenido gobiernos que no han dado enfacis en la materia.. pero si tenemos mucha ayuda social a las clases mas necesitadas.
i don't want to sound rude but as a costarican is so funny how this guy is taking all the credit for protecting the nature on that side of my country and we were the ones destroying it, not the tourism with their big hotels and stuff 🙄 come on this is Costa Rica number one country in the world in protecting the nature but i really really appreciate from my heart that this guy is helping us i really really appreciate it i wish all the tourism comes with same attitude god bless this guy just don't take all the credit for yourself 😆 love from Costa Rica 🇨🇷
Costa Rica is a great place to live - if you stay out of the main cities. The natural environment is gorgeous, and for the main part unspoiled. Advice to would-be expats: (1) LEARN SPANISH ! If not, you will never be accepted. (2) RESPECT your hosts - you are a GUEST in THEIR country. (3) ADAPT - CR is NOT the USA. If you just can't do without US trappings, then do NOT move !
I have no idea why Louis Wilson would plant an African Almond tree (Terminalia catalpa) in his park. Introduced species are a huge problem in so many regions. But that aside he is well intentioned and seems to have made a difference in Tamarindo.
Lmao @ 4:40 "I love the United States, I would live there if they had warm warter, MAYBE" I love it. That's how I feel but have not moved yet, I am in the planning stage......
I seem to have a problem watching these Reserve Channel episodes. Am I the only one? I love the settings, but am finding that Savannah Jane Buffett is the most amazing part of the show. She seems to make the whole experience somehow more alive. Maybe I'm just smitten. That seems most likely.
building envirmants in harmony with mother nature is one of the greatest achievments of greatness and desent thing any body can do. opinion of a73 year old man .breaking things ispecially in a hord of mutual self ricios stupit J ASS is evil.

21:02 - this whole segment from here, in a few sentences, is what life is, really
Truly inspiring. As a Costa Rican expat myself, thank you sir for loving nature and loving my homeland so much. You are a true hero 💚🌎♻️
Thank you Louis Wilson for having helped so much in founding and preserving the Tamarindo Estuary Nature Resserve and Las Baulas National Park ! What a great story amigo !!! Blessings . 🙏❤️
This man is a true hero. When I move to Costa Rica will def give him my help, hands, knowledge and expertise
he's a hero really, he fought for preserving a very important piece of Costa Rica, which very easily could have been developed.
Love Costa Rica. Another great episode guys! Cheers!

I knew he was older, but would never guess it was 25 years. Thought 15 years at the max. Good for you both!
Very cool..... having spent time in Costa Rica in the early 90's I can see what Louis is trying to accomplish.
Your work still there!!!! Thanks for your great effort!
I drove to costa rica with my father from california... Then drove back to california... then 10 years later we drove back down to costa rica from california.. now i flew back to california and really want to get the fuck out of this place and go back to costa rica where all my family stayed.
Five years later... Did you do it?

Guanacaste is a "Blue Zone'. It's one of the places in the world where people live the longest.

Graham Wilson
I thought that too. It's important to leave plants and wildlife in their natural setting.
was that tree planted in sand?
Where can we get this product in Canada
I wish to send you my profile and see how I can help you Louis...great eco- tourism project....
Do you know good but budget friendly dentist for implants and bridge?
Twice with me and Audrey What Great Times We Had Kh
Oh man you should hire me that way I can go back to my coutry , Iam a tico in california
It's hard to believe that tree will grown in the sand.
Lmao @ 4:40 "I love the United States, I would live there if they had warm warter, MAYBE" I love it. That's how I feel but have not moved yet, I am in the planning stage......
He said if they had warm water surfing. US doesn't have it.
✌️️❤️
What happened to the giant turtles? What does he mean the oceans are degrading?
It was good you went the conservation route. Possibly saved your hard earned facility from getting bulldozed 7 years ago
I seem to have a problem watching these Reserve Channel episodes. Am I the only one? I love the settings, but am finding that Savannah Jane Buffett is the most amazing part of the show. She seems to make the whole experience somehow more alive. Maybe I'm just smitten. That seems most likely.
He shot a snake in a nature preserve?
Paraíso*
wow, i thought it was bad luck to kill a snake. 7 years of bad luck.
building envirmants in harmony with mother nature is one of the greatest achievments of greatness and desent thing any body can do. opinion of a73 year old man .breaking things ispecially in a hord of mutual self ricios stupit J ASS is evil.
does anyone else see the irony in flying people from around the world to support eco tourism?
sad that this dude has no children to carry on this legacy. an emPty vision with no kids. STERILE
ego much...
Kinda sensing some white savior complex here.
He is full of crap
Pura Vida
