Our commitment to sustainability is not an afterthought, it is our founding principle, focused on environmental and conservation stewardship, protection of cultural heritage, and support of local communities. In fact, we create and manage our lodges entirely based on our holistic sustainability principles, and we hold ourselves accountable every step of the way.
A founding principle
OUR SUSTAINABILITY PILLARS
RESPECTING THE LAND
We strive to minimize structural impact and respect the environment on which our lodges exist.
PROTECTING WILDLIFE
We are committed to protecting the wildlife, conserving endangered species and preserving their natural habitats.
MINDFUL OF RESOURCES
We have strict environmental guidelines for energy use, water treatment, composting, recycling, and use of plastic.
SUPPORTING LOCAL COMMUNITIES
We partner with communities by creating opportunities to empower, educate and employ.
EATING RESPONSIBLY
We offer organic, locally grown, seasonal foods, and we grow some in our own garden.
ENGAGING GUESTS
We involve our guests in community and environmental programmes.
DESIGNING A SENSE OF PLACE
Our lodges are designed to architecturally blend in the local environment.
To love travel is to love our planet
The goal is not only to minimize our impact, but to actually have
a positive effect on the environments we settle in. That means actively contributing to the conservation of wildlife and the regeneration of the natural habitats around our lodges. It means embracing local culture and heritage, celebrating traditional food and art, and supporting the development of the local community.
To love travel is to love our planet, and all the beautiful, natural sights it has to offer.
Responsible travellers recognize that the luxury of that experience comes hand in hand with the
responsibility to preserve it. Because if we don’t, there won’t be much left to explore or discover. And that is what sustainable tourism is all about.
