Villa Resorts Practice Environmental Consciousness

The top resort collection in the Maldives, Villa Hotels and Resorts, recognizes the need of working together to support environmental protection and ocean preservation. Villa Hotels' Maldives resorts provide plastic for recycling in conjunction with Parley for the Oceans, an organization that addresses serious risks to oceans, as part of a continual vow to help safeguard the natural environment.

In a development goal to eliminate plastic totally from the islands, Villa Resorts has introduced reusable glass bottles across the resorts and on driving excursions. DiveOceanus, the diving center at Royal Island Resort & Spa, is Villa Hotels' first 95 percent paperless dive center, with all training materials, administration forms, and content delivered digitally to guests. The resort staff, as well as guests who desire to participate, will work together to clean up the private island and surrounding lagoon of plastic and waste.
