SUSTAINABILITY

The tourism sector has a high impact on the environment, culture and society. Currently contributing approximately 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions (Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership), it is increasingly important to contribute with specific measures in order to manage the potentially negative effects of the growth of this activity. It is the duty of all of us to care for our planet and therefore, the involvement of everyone is necessary, so that the legacy left for future generations ratifies the effort developed.

At Hotel Mar & Sol we implement daily sustainable measures and practices, with the objective of mitigating the effects resulting from these same impacts. Based on practices of transparency and involvement with the hotel's stakeholders, the approach involves a commitment work taking into account ESG criteria.
