Luxury Resort Calabash Grenada Certified by Green Globe

Guests of Calabash Grenada can indulge in the luxury offered by the resort knowing that great effort is put into sustainable tourism through Green Globe. Green Globe is the global certification for sustainable tourism. Its members save energy and water resources, reduce operational costs and promote environmentally friendly ethics.

Calabash Grenada has developed and implemented a long-term environmental management system to continually reduce the usage of water and energy and to reduce waste.

The resort’s Green Team facilitates and maintains their sustainability strategies in accordance with the company’s vision to be a leader in green initiatives. Energy goals are monitored and benchmarked, and the resort is investing in solar power to provide electricity for several areas around the property, including its hot water system.

Guests are invited to join local environmental and community related activities, such as Pack for a Purpose, a program where guests of the resort are asked to save a little space in their luggage to bring in items to donate to the island’s children’s homes.

A waste sorting system is in place, composting is done within the complex and nurtures the resort’s own lush gardens and the resort also ensures that eco-friendly products are purchased, where possible, and local suppliers are given preference.

The resort is due to commence its multi-million dollar renovation project in August to ensure the boutique resort remains at the forefront of the luxury tourism market with sustainability being a major priority.
