How are they sustainable?
The hotel uses renewable energy (solar and wind) and is working towards carbon neutrality. They engage in regenerative measures, like planting trees to preserve the habitat, with each direct booking resulting in a tree planted through One Tree Planted. They use organic, locally sourced food, eco-friendly products, rainwater collection for irrigation, and other sustainable measures.
