			Accommodations for ecotourism are vital components of tourism services, particularly in ecotourism, as they adhere to numerous principles and criteria suited to the environmental conditions of untouched natural and rural areas. These lodgings are formulated to harmonize with the characteristics of the surrounding environment, such as shape, color, size, height, volume, and materials, thereby facilitating the development of tourism hubs. However, a significant hurdle faced by many villages is the absence of sustainable development standards for building. A critical element in establishing developmental boundaries is the design of tourist accommodations, which takes into account construction methods, materials, environmental compatibility, management practices, and energy efficiency. Mazandaran Province has embraced a positive strategy in this regard, integrating traditional architecture to foster strong links between structures and their environments. This study intends to design a sustainable ecotourism residence in Abbas Abad County that enhances rural livelihoods while preserving the essential characteristics of tourist accommodations.
