Eco Amenities
The sustainability page lists off-site composting of garden waste and waste sorting among its aims and objectives for 2025. These are stated goals with no reported results, so this is a claim only. The 2025 aims and objectives say the resort will use solar, renewable energy and captured water efficiently, but nothing says what is installed. A goal, so a claim only. The commitments list says local products and services are used where possible under a purchasing policy. No named suppliers, so a claim only. The resort commits to monitoring and reporting environmental performance annually, but no report is published and no certification was found. A claim only.
