What we measure, and what we publish
ECO Climate Badge Gold — 270 verified points, audited by a GSTC-aligned certification body recognised by Travalyst and Booking.com.
Gold, and who says so
The ECO Climate Badge is awarded by Eco Climate Tourism Bali — a GSTC-aligned certification body recognised by both Travalyst and Booking.com.
The GSTC criteria are the international reference standard for sustainable tourism. Seven areas are assessed separately against them, which is why the rest of this page can be specific.
Certified 24 April 2026. We self-assessed at 272; the audit verified 270.
Separately audited by the Indonesian DMC Sustainability Collaboration (IDSC).

Seven streams, each with a named partner
Waste is sorted into seven streams before it leaves the resort, and every route has a licensed partner we can name.
Diversion rates are recorded monthly and will be published here once we have twelve months on a consistent method.
Tanjung Benoa is where we live, not where we are located
Over 40% of our grounds are planted with native, climate-adapted species.
Native planting
Less irrigation, more habitat.
Beach cleaning
Plastic is collected from the sand, and the seaweed goes to our compost.
Tree & mangrove planting
On World Mangrove Day our team planted 300 mangrove seedlings.
Rooted here, and staffed from here
Sustainability is also whether the villages around a resort are better off for it being there. Most of our team are Balinese, many from the surrounding banjar.
Grown here, on the menu the same day
Herbs and vegetables grown on the property — recycled rainwater, our own compost, no chemical pesticides.
The lemongrass in an evening cocktail often comes from thirty metres away.
We are not finished, and we publish as we go
Gold is a position on a scale, not a conclusion. Four things a guest changes simply by choosing them.
Linen reuse
Cuts water, energy and detergent for your whole stay.
Electric transfer vehicle
Our first EV now runs guest transfers.
Cultural programmes
Free to guests, and they support local artisans.
