To achieve energy conservation by:
• using light bulbs with low energy consumption or led lights in all public areas and accommodations
• ensuring that all rooms are equipped with breakers on balcony doors that shut off the power of A/Cs in the rooms in order to save energy
• using the suitable solar thermal equipment, we cover 100% our needs for general use hot water from the solar energy from May to October
• ensuring that all rooms are equipped with electronic cards that shut off the power supply when the guest removes the key before leaving the room
• using environmentally friendly A/C units, which operate at an efficient temperature range to avoid extreme energy consumption, i.e. 24°C lowest temperature during the summer and highest during the winter.
• the choice of green, energy-efficient equipment
• seeking and updating about alternative energy sources

To achieve water conservation by:
• changing towels every two days and sheets every four days
• installing water conservation devices at the taps, which also reduce the volume of waste water to be treated.

To reduce the solid waste we dispose of by:
• separating our waste streams including glass, paper, cans, batteries, organic wastes, cooking oils etc. and recycling these materials
• repairing or maintaining equipment and furniture instead of replacing them, whenever is possible
