Responsible achievements & sustainable development goals

We strive to reduce our carbon footprint by focusing on using 100% hydro-electrical power and only LED lighting, reducing plastic and paper in the hotel rooms to a maximum, eliminating plastic water bottles by using refillable glass bottles, as well as collecting all used soaps from our guests’ rooms to be recycled with our partner Sapocycle. Year on year, we successfully reduced our waste production by 20%.

 

Furthermore, we wish to go beyond our goals by supporting underprivileged people in their hospitality studies through Pimali as well as supporting people with reduced mobility with Capdenho.
