Environment

Property's Green Action

Desalinization, Portugal
The Alvor desalination project is a pioneering action in Portugal. It was distinguished with the first prize for Environmental Sustainability by Turismo de Portugal. The desalination plant allows the use of sea water (after treatment) in the irrigation systems of green areas, in pools and lakes of Hotels located in the region of Alvor.

Internal campaign to reduce the use of water, electricity and paper
All the locations were distributed posters and stickers, which were strategically placed and aimed at raising awareness of the reduction of water, paper and electricity consumption.

Paper for Food
The Food Banks launched a “Paper for Food” campaign with environmental and solidarity goals, in which the paper collected (newspapers, magazines, leaflets, etc.) was converted into food products.

Biodiversity Preservation
In Portugal, there are Pousadas located in protected areas (e.g. Pousada do Infante located in the Natural Park of Southwest Alentejo and Costa Vicentina). Hotels located in Mozambique occupy 6,500 m2 of protected area and those located in South Africa occupy 50,000 m2 of protected area. All these locations are subject to biodiversity preservation regulations, which are supervised by the managing entities of the respective areas. In this context, our locations cooperate with the initiatives carried out by these entities.
