How this holiday makes a difference
Environment
Belonging to an island declared by UNESCO Reservation of the Biosphere and respecting all the requirements of the ITR (Institute for Responsible tourism) for the Hoteles of the Biosphere it is what we make ours declared in the World Letter Of The Sustainable Tourism.
We are devoted to preventing, eliminating any harmful impact that our facilities and activities, both internal and external may have on the environment.
- Low energy lighting by using sensors and timers in all the outside areas such as gardens, bars, pool areas and save bulbs in all the appartments. With this we have reduced our figures nearly a 6%. We encourage our guests to switch off the lights when going out to help us to reduce the consumption of energy
- We have facilities for recycling in several areas of the hotel. We ask our guests in our welcome book to separate in the room the glass, paper and plastic and our cleaning maids collect it and bring it to the containers.
- In the offices we ensure that appliance such as photocopier; printer and computer are turned off when not in use in order to reduce our energy consumption. We re-use the papers in all the offices
- In terms of water saving measures in apartments, there are notes for our guests that change towels only when requested by our guests and we save water by having installed also push-button in lavatories
- In our gardens we use recycled water and have a time and area system. We never use the washing machine at half capacity, and always wash with cold water if possible, in this way we reduce water end electricity consumption.
Community
A society has to be at peace with itself in order to provide a peaceful environment to its visitors. We are devoted to preventing, eliminating or minimizing any harmful impact that our facilities and activities, both internal and external, may have on the environment. Our aim: to enhance the sustainability of our complex and create well-being for many people, careful not to harm anyone. Our values focus on the human being, justice and equality, and on respecting life and the ecosystem.
We aim to respect our island’s local traditions and culture, making sure that no irreversible imbalances are created in our community. We subject all future expansion projects of our facilities or activities to rigid standards of sustainability and to the efficient use of resources. Since we hold the conviction that nature should not be used by a few in detriment of the common interest, we honour and respect nature even at a financial cost.
We firmly believe that culture - especially our island’s home-grown cultural contributions - represents a valuable attraction and asset for tourists and visitors.
We advocate an efficient use of energy, taking care to respect our local natural resources by recycling them, while at the same time keeping in mind our most essential human needs.
We consider tourism to be a vehicle towards sustaining peace and fostering exchange and understanding among the people of our Earth.
We strongly believe that tourism is an effective tool that should help us plan, enhance cultural diversity, preserve natural resources and establish social justice policies within the framework of democracy’s highest standards.
