Anantara Seminyak Resort & Spa was the very first hotel in all of Bali to be awarded Green Globe Certification under Green Globe’s revised standards. Even more impressive than this pioneering status, within the very first year of certification, the luxury resort has won the “Green Globe Highest Achievement Award: Asia 2011”, thanks to a wealth of significant environmental, social and cultural preservation efforts.
The esteemed environmental award is given to the business which gains the highest score against Green Globe’s 320 sustainability indicators, as well as demonstrating a commitment to its specific destination. In the Asian region, Anantara Seminyak Resort & Spa attained 76% of the sustainability indicators for hotels and resorts, while the boutique retreat’s commitment to protecting the Seminyak coastline was viewed as equally impressive.
Ivan Casadevall, General Manager for Anantara Seminyak Resort & Spa, Bali, comments: “I am delighted that our efforts have benefited the local environment and community so greatly. Green Globe Certification is the travel and tourism industry’s worldwide hallmark for sustainability, and recognition such as the “Highest Achievement Award for Asia 2011” highlights Anantara Seminyak’s sincere commitment to operating in an environmentally, socially and culturally responsible manner.”
The accolade comes just as Anantara Golden Triangle proudly achieved Green Globe Certification, making the luxurious resort the very first Anantara in Thailand to be rewarded with this status under Green Globe’s high standards.
Green Globe Certification is the worldwide hallmark for sustainability in the travel and tourism industry, and this recognition highlights Anantara’s Golden Triangle’s sincere commitment to a continued focus on the environment through a broad spectrum of initiatives.
