"After installing an AI-assisted waste-tracking system, kitchen teams cut wasted food by roughly half within four months, saving the equivalent of about 40,000 meals by using photographic, identity, and weight data to change purchasing and prep practices." - Jen Rose Smith

"On an incentive trip I stayed at the Four Seasons Resort Peninsula Papagayo in Costa Rica, where companies sometimes buy out the entire hotel for top performers; aside from a few hours of meetings the rest was genuine fun, and what was billed as a beach “white party” unexpectedly turned into a huge rave with everyone covering their faces in neon paint and dancing until the wee hours." - Anna Silman
"A little holiday cheer makes a vacation at one of the best beach resorts in Costa Rica even more magical. The calendar is packed with special events, including a Costa Rican Noche Buena (Christmas Eve) featuring tamales and other Latin dishes, the family-friendly Santa’s Beach Party (rumor has it the Grinch likes to crash the festivities) on Christmas Day, the biannual Papagayo Street Fair on Dec. 26, and the big New Year’s Eve bash at Virador Beach Club. A driftwood tree decorated with twinkling lights in the rotunda is the icing on the cake — ahem, Christmas cookie." - Lindsay Cohn Lindsay Cohn Lindsay Cohn is a writer, editor, and avid traveler who has visited 45 countries across six continents — and counting.

"Possibly the most expensive property on the peninsula, Casa Las Olas is a post-modern, three-story temple built on a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Designed by the Peruvian-Costa Rican architect Jaime Rouillón, the rose-colored villa was completed in 2022 and has 18,000- square feet of living space spread across three discrete levels. Plus, it is fully managed by the Four Seasons Resort, which means you can order room service if you don’t feel like having a private chef whip up a snack." - Denny Lee Denny Lee Denny Lee is a seasoned editor, writer, and traveler.
