Our Commitment to a Sustainable Future

We actively integrate sustainability into our daily operations, and we encourage guests to support these efforts by following the Travelife Responsible Guest Guide, available in multiple languages.

Introduction

At ECHO Resorts, sustainability is an ongoing practice. We manage our operations with the goal of reducing our ecological footprint, protecting our natural surroundings, and operating responsibly while delivering an exceptional guest experience. This policy reflects the initiatives we currently implement to reduce, manage, and monitor our environmental impact.

  1. Energy Conservation and Efficiency

    We consistently work to lower our energy use through practical, resort-wide measures:

    • Routine checks of equipment and facilities to identify efficiency improvements.
    • Use of energy-efficient lighting and appliances throughout the resort.
    • Ongoing expansion of renewable energy use, including existing solar installations.
    • Smart scheduling and operational practices to avoid unnecessary energy consumption.
    • Guest reminders to switch off lights and air-conditioning when not in use.

  2. Water Management

    Water conservation is an essential part of our daily operations. Our current practices include:

    • Installing and maintaining low-flow taps, showers, and toilets.
    • Using collected rainwater and treated greywater for irrigation where applicable.
    • Operating a towel and linen reuse program to reduce laundry water usage.
    • Daily monitoring of consumption and immediate repairs of any leaks.

  3. Waste Reduction and Recycling

    We actively reduce and manage waste through:

    • Resort-wide waste separation for recyclables, general waste, and organics.
    • Minimising single-use plastics and offering reusable alternatives.
    • Reusing materials where practical and collaborating with local recycling partners.
    • Composting organic waste for use in landscaping.

  4. Sustainable Procurement

    Our purchasing decisions focus on reducing environmental impact and supporting local communities. We currently:

    • Source fresh produce and essential items from local suppliers whenever possible.
    • Prioritise products with minimal or eco-friendly packaging.
    • Work with vendors who demonstrate responsible and ethical practices.

  5. Biodiversity and Landscaping

    We take active steps to protect and preserve the natural environment surrounding our properties:

    • Maintaining native landscaping that supports local flora and fauna.
    • Preserving natural areas and habitats within the resort grounds.
    • Avoiding harmful pesticides and opting for safer, nature-friendly alternatives.

  6. Environmental Education and Engagement

    We foster a culture of environmental awareness through:

    • Staff training and regular updates on sustainability practices.
    • Providing guests with information about our initiatives and how they can participate.
    • Supporting community programs, clean-ups, and environmental events.

  7. Continuous Improvement and Monitoring

    We track our environmental performance and refine our practices through:

    • Regular review of our sustainability targets and procedures.
    • Monitoring key areas such as energy, water, and waste management.
    • Reporting progress to management and relevant stakeholders to maintain accountability.

Compliance and Accountability

We comply with all applicable environmental regulations and uphold standards required by sustainability certifications we pursue or maintain. Management oversees policy implementation, and every team member contributes to carrying out these practices.
