Hotels Taking Steps Towards Sustainability in Kremasti

The Porto Angeli Hotel is a recognized leader in environmental stewardship, showing a strong commitment to reducing its environmental footprint and advancing sustainable practices across all operations. At its core, this commitment aims to ensure the longevity of natural resources for future generations, providing them with access to clean air, clean water, and a healthy environment. Porto Angeli achieves this by employing innovative and eco-friendly strategies.

Harnessing solar energy through thermal panels, the hotel generates hot water for various uses. The latest inverter-type air conditioning systems ensure optimal temperature control with minimal energy consumption. Waste management is a priority, with comprehensive recycling programs for paper cartons, opened cans, glass bottles, used batteries, and waste oil, which is repurposed into biodiesel. Additionally, the hotel focuses on water and energy conservation. This is achieved by automatic timer switches for daylight activity, energy-efficient LEDs or Compact Fluorescents for lighting, energy management systems in guest rooms, and dual flush converters in toilets to limit water usage. To further its green initiative, recycling bins are distributed throughout the resort and in each room, along with informational leaflets for guests who wish to contribute to the hotel's environmental endeavors.

This resort, part of Atrium Hotels, is committed to reducing environmental impact. They have comprehensive recycling plans, use water-efficient fixtures, treat wastewater for irrigation, and maintain green spaces with native plants. They are working towards being Zero-Plastic by 2025 and promote green mobility options.

Lindos Royal Resort, a member of the Lindos Hotel Group, is committed to sustainability at its core, demonstrating an acute awareness of the impact hotel operations can have on local and regional environments. Integrated into every level of its operations and across all properties, the resort is dedicated to preserving Rhodes' vibrancy and resilience for future generations. Lindos Royal Resort adheres to 'best practices' for Sustainable Hotel Design, a policy encompassing new developments and refurbishments alike. Annually, the property undergoes rigorous evaluation and verification by independent third-party auditors, ensuring continual improvement in sustainable operations.

The resort has adopted a comprehensive environmental management system, devised with the help of external environmental experts and implemented across all Lindos Hotel Group properties. Designated environmental teams at each location monitor, review, and update these efforts, and ensure staff-wide communication and compliance with environmental laws and regulations. Each resort has a strong commitment to practices such as water resource management, efficient energy management, waste management and recycling, as well as fostering a safe, inclusive work environment for staff. This commitment extends to social responsibility, with a focus on open communication with local businesses to forge mutually beneficial relationships and preserve local traditions. Quality policy is also paramount, with the aim to elevate hospitality services to meet client expectations at the highest standard, while respecting the cultural and natural environment of the locale. This dedication to responsible, sustainable business practices ultimately benefits not just the environment, but also the communities in which the hotels are located.
