Skinos Ilivatos Eco Villa & Estate is a beacon of sustainable hospitality, integrating a host of eco-friendly policies and practices. Harnessing renewable energy sources such as solar radiation and wind, this accommodation is 100% off-grid, operating solely on power generated from these natural elements. The building design itself is an ecological marvel, maximizing air flow and natural light to reduce dependence on artificial heating, cooling, and lighting. Furthermore, the property employs triple-glazed windows that efficiently regulate indoor temperatures.
Water conservation is robustly addressed with systems for rainwater collection, wastewater treatment, and reuse. Waste management practices include separating waste into at least three categories, providing recycling bins in guest rooms, and composting organic waste. The eco-conscious philosophy extends to aspects like non-toxic cleaning products, LED lighting, and the provision of bicycles for guest use. Remarkably, Skinos Ilivatos Eco Villa & Estate is a zero-energy building, achieving net-zero energy consumption annually through intelligent design and an automatic system that turns off lights and electrical appliances when guests leave their rooms. An additional unique feature of this eco-resort is its commitment to animal welfare, as the property doubles as an animal shelter and forbids any form of hunting or harm to animals, aligning with the hosts' vegetarian lifestyle.
