Sustainability Policy
Key Pillars of Sustainability Policy
Environmental Awareness
We will raise awareness about environmental issues, local culture preservation, and responsible behavior among colleagues by promoting responsible workplace practices and encouraging participation in environmental initiatives.
Environmental Awareness & Engagement
We will reduce energy consumption to minimize environmental impact and costs by making workplaces more energy efficient, using energy efficient equipment and controls, maintaining machinery and equipment, and opting for energy efficient appliances.
Waste
Our hotel's waste management plan aims to reduce environmental and public health impacts by limiting disposable packaging, using compostable materials, and collecting and recycling used cooking oil.
Green Procurement (Environmentally Preferable Purchasing)
Green procurement involves purchasing environmentally preferable products and services while considering guest satisfaction, company standards, and reasonable costs, with the aim of minimizing environmental impacts on land, air, water, and biodiversity.
Destination Protection
Sustainable tourism involves protecting natural and cultural values, creating recreational opportunities, and engaging with local communities to support habitat restoration and the development of cultural attractions.
Biodiversity and Protection of Wildlife
Biodiversity supports healthy and productive ecosystems. We aim to reduce the use of pesticides, promote responsible landscaping practices, use appropriate fertilizers, conserve water when watering plants, use indigenous plants where suitable, and minimize unnecessary noise and light.
Help Us Protect Our Wild Neighbors
To protect local wildlife, please do not feed any animals on or around the hotel property.
Feeding wildlife can harm their health and disrupt their natural behaviors.
Thank you for helping us protect nature.
People & Culture
Sustainability starts with our people. We support employee wellbeing through ongoing training, health and safety programs, ethical business practices, human rights awareness, diversity and inclusion initiatives, and continuous professional development.
Guest & Stakeholder Engagement
We actively engage with guests, colleagues, suppliers, and business partners by communicating our sustainability commitments and encouraging responsible practices. Through awareness initiatives and transparent communication, we aim to create a shared responsibility for sustainable tourism.
Risk & Crisis Readiness
We integrate sustainability into our emergency preparedness and risk management processes. This includes maintaining emergency procedures, conducting regular drills, testing critical equipment, and preparing for environmental and operational risks such as utility disruptions and extreme weather conditions.
