Popular resort is solid choice for those interested in properties with legitimate green credentials
If ensuring your holiday in the Maldives is as eco-conscious as possible, then you may be interested to hear that Kuramathi Maldives has once again garnered a Travelife Gold Certification. The globally
recognised accolade is awarded to hotels and resorts that show genuine social responsibility in areas such as environmental management and promoting sustainable practices.
A spokesperson for Kuramathi said: “Receiving this award required consistent efforts toward corporate social responsibility (CSR) goals, including maintaining rich biodiversity, monitoring the marine ecosystem, implementing energy and water-saving practices, and collaborating with the local community for education and employment initiatives.”
Key goals that the Kuramathi resort team achieved in order to receive the award include a focus upon employee welfare, which involves ensuring fair wages, ethical working conditions, and opportunities for professional development, alongside upholding health and safety standards.
Eco-conscious travellers may be interested to hear that at the heart of all these sustainability efforts is the Eco Centre at Kuramathi. It’s managed by a dedicated team that includes a Sustainability Manager, Horticulturist, and Eco Centre Coordinator. Together with the resort’s environment committee—comprising members from various operational areas, the team drives initiatives that foster environmental, social, and economic sustainability.
Kuramathi Maldives is part of Universal Resorts and was one of the first resorts to open in the Maldives.
