Garbage Recycling

Since over 15 years, we separate the garbage and deliver it straight to the relevant recycling factories. Paper, steel and aluminum cans, plastic bottles and all glass is not going to waste! In fact, the recycling companies are buying it from us, and the money goes into a fund to sponsor various team events. Our garbage volume therefore is limited to a few bags per week, containing mainly wet kitchen waste.

Water Supply

Water comes from two deep wells, which deliver great quality water, which is filtered before pumped to the resort. We also have public water access, but we use it only when necessary.

Water Saving

Towels are only replaced and washed when you leave them on the floor. Bed linens are changed every 3 days instead of daily, unless you request daily fresh linen.

Swimming Pool

The swimming pool is salt water treated. The only product added to the water is salt, no chemicals are used at all. Considering the size of the pool, the amount of chemicals saved is quite considerable. Pool water overflows into the environment during rain, so it does make a difference. Of course, your skin will also love it!

Energy Savings

LED bulbs help reducing energy consumption and new air conditioning systems are inverter systems, which use only about half of the energy used before. Various electronic timers are controlling dozens of light zones to turn them on and off when necessary. At night (after midnight), the resort lights are reduced to a minimum.

Air Conditioning

Newest and most efficient Inverter Technology helps saving energy. The new models are consuming roughly half of the usual standard air conditioners. They also run very smoothly and quietly.

Ceiling insulation, ventilation

All villas are constructed with 10 cm insulation material under the roof and a 10 cm gap to allow for air flow. Natural air ventilation of the roofs is often forgotten, and it is especially important in hot countries with high humidity. A room which doesn’t heat up much, doesn’t need much cooling.

Avoiding Plastics

We are using biodegradable plastics made from starch, produced locally in Thailand. Straws, plastic garbage bags, even Tupperware is made from this material, which can be composted. As we started this process in the middle of 2018, old stocks are used up and all items used at the resort are fully biodegradable.

Drinking Water Bottles

Guests joining the Ayurveda and Wellness Programs are using copper bottles from India, as they have certain health benefits as advised by our Ayurvedic Doctor. Other guests are using glass bottles. At the reception, we provide a water dispenser with filtered water, where guests can refill unlimited and free of charge.
