Responsible tourism in practice

What does a responsible tourism & hospitality operator look like?

Global Ecosphere Retreat (GER)
We plan to become certified GER by The Long Run, a sustainable travel movement that helps business, nature and people work together for a better future.

LEED standard
As to our building methods, we will attain to the United States Green Building Council.  Whenever practical, we will go for the LEED Gold or higher standard.

LEED is the most widely used green building rating system in the world. LEED certification provides independent verification of a building’s green features, allowing for the design, construction, operations and maintenance of resource-efficient, high-performing, healthy, cost-effective buildings. LEED is the triple bottom line in action, benefiting people, planet and profit.

Sustainable Hotel
We also follow the guidelines of Conservation International on siting, designing and building a sustainable hotel.

Environmental management
In our operations we follow the industry guide on sustainable operation as published by the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance (formerly known as the International Tourism Partnership).
