An ecological hotel at the height of sustainable tourism
The sustainable tourism sings into broadly defined sustainable environment, social & economy.
As a result the sustainable tourism has to :
- Make optimal use of environmental ressources that constitute a key element in tourism development , maintaining essential ecological processes and helping to conserve natural heritage and biodiversity.
- Respect the socio-cultural authenticity of host communities, conserve their built and living cultural heritage and traditional values, and contribute to inter-cultural understanding and tolerance.
- Ensure viable, long-term economic operations, providing socio-economic benefits to all stakeholders that are fairly distributed.
