Our Commitment to responsible travel and sustainability.

  • From the start, when this was a barren rock-strewn hillside, our goal has been to be with nature, drawing on the knowledge and skills of local people, and employing and training local people to become members of our team.
  • We are working to sustainable principles. All our water is solar pumped from subterranean aquifers, ready for drinking and other needs, such as irrigating our vegetables. We have a water harvesting scheme. We discourage the use of plastics. We utilise renewable heat sources and we recycle and sort our waste meticulously.
  • Staying with us isn't just a peaceful refuge, it also gives you the chance to adopt our responsible and respectful travelling ethics.
