Making a Difference

Percentage of local employees: 60%

We have a responsible scuba diving program in partnership with Beautiful Oceans to ensure reef protection.

We are testing a new technology in waste management in order to reduce the amount of waste sent to the landfill as much as possible, since there is no recycling available on the island yet.

Recycled water is used not only for irrigation, but also for the toilet system.

Eco tours are offered by our excursions supplier.

Reusable eco-bags are sold in the boutique and for each bag sold, we donate $1 USD to the local elementary school.

We support the Bahamas Humane Society, a charity that addresses the problem of stray animals and many other concerns.

Also, through our sustainable purchasing policy, we avoid the purchase of endangered species, especially fish.
