Environmental evidence and weighted assessment

Environmental evidence by pillar
PillarWeightLevel and what it meansContributionEvidence and source
Nature, biodiversity and regeneration30%2/4 · A named area of habitat kept undisturbed, or one named native planting or conservation activity15 / 30 points

Gardens planted with local drought tolerant species, and the resort states no grey water, rain water or sewage runoff reaches the sea.

Energy and climate15%3/4 · Several systems, such as on site renewables plus at least 80% LED lighting, natural ventilation and metered monitoring; the stay's own vehicles and boats count here11.25 / 15 points

Photovoltaic panels, LED lighting, keycard power management in rooms and regular energy audits (green initiatives page, undated but on the current site).

Source · 2026-10-29
Water10%3/4 · Several systems, such as rain harvesting plus wastewater treatment and reuse plus low flow fittings7.5 / 10 points

Greywater recycling (the resort states around 30,000 gallons a day) irrigates the gardens, with low flow showers and taps, dual flush toilets and linen reuse (green initiatives page, August 2025). The figure is an approximate self-reported volume, not an outcome measured against total use, so it is graded on the systems.

Waste and plastic10%3/4 · Composting plus recycling plus no single use plastic in rooms and food service7.5 / 10 points

No plastic water bottles (refillable aluminium bottles), refillable bulk dispensers in every bathroom, single use plastic removed from food service, garden and kitchen waste composted, used cooking oil recycled.

Source · 2026-10-29
Food, farming and sourcing15%2/4 · A named own garden or named local farms supply part of the menu7.5 / 15 points

The organic garden supplies only the I-TAL plant based restaurant, one of the resort's five restaurants alongside TAO, Cariblue, the Wellness Café and Pavilion Grill, which are not described as garden supplied. The resort also says it sources most ingredients from local farmers and fishermen, but gives no figure.

Measurement, transparency and certification5%3/4 · A current third party certificate confirmed in the certifier's own directory, or measured data published for one year. Tiers earned by years certified add nothing3.75 / 5 points

Green Globe's own Caribbean directory (2026) lists 'The Body Holiday LeSport' under Certified Members for Saint Lucia, linked to thebodyholiday.com. The resort's August 2025 green initiatives page still described itself as pursuing Green Globe, so certification appears to have followed. No published audit results.

Throne Standard for stays 2.2. Accommodation Eco Score weights: Nature, biodiversity and regeneration 30%, Energy and climate 15%, Water 10%, Waste and plastic 10%, Food, farming and sourcing 15%, Buildings, heritage reuse and land use 15%, Measurement, transparency and certification 5%. Each pillar earns its weight times its level divided by four. The score is 1 plus 4 times the evidenced performance, shown to one decimal, so 0% is 1.0 and 100% is 5.0. Missing pillars lower coverage and stay outside the calculation. A score needs at least 70% coverage. Below 85% coverage, below 70% performance, or with less than half the weight at level 2 or above, the score is held under the next whole number (3.4 or 2.4). A 5.0 band needs 90% coverage and performance, level 4 evidence on half the weight and the key pillar at level 3 or above. Every level can be earned from public, dated evidence; no score requires a visit. Evidence must be rechecked within two years. Guest travel is not scored; everyone gets there how they can.

Purity, what touches your body

Purity Score pending. We score this once dated, sourced evidence covers at least 70% of the weight. Missing evidence is not a negative finding.
