PROXIMAMENTE
Photovoltaic
​
Thanks to the solar panels, we take advantage of the rays of our sun that besides giving us a good tan also helps us generate green energy and reduce our energy impact by approx. 50%
RENEWABLE ENERGY
Led lights
We have LED bulbs, which help us consume 25% of the electricity we would consume using conventional bulbs.
Thermosolar
​
In a city as sunny as Merida, heat can also be used to heat water through solar panels and enjoy a good shower without using so much energy.
Short Showers
We ask our guests for awareness in order to reduce our water consumption and thus help to preserve and care for the aquifers!
WATER MANAGEMENT
Natural Pool
To clean a normal pool it is necessary to apply chlorine constantly and this does us a lot of damage. Our pool has a natural cleaning system which helps your skin feel better and fresher. Besides not polluting our body and the earth with so much chemical.
WASTE
In Mexico every day we generate 117,000 tons of garbage, of which 70% go to rivers and forests and ravines. To help reduce the amount of waste we have an effective waste management system and we seek to raise awareness in our guests and community about the importance of reuse and recycling.
Recicling
Mobility
80% of air pollution is emitted by vehicles, causing thousands of deaths per year due to our poor air quality, can you believe it? We promote green mobility to reduce the generation of CO2 in the atmosphere by renting bicycles with which you can travel the city without polluting the planet.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
No to plastic!
​
Every year more than 8 tons of plastics are dumped into the oceans, which are also overexploited! We invite our guests to use the water bottles that we bridle upon arrival, so they do not have to buy plastic bottles while they are touring.
CULTURAL PRESERVATION
Local Tourism
In conventional tourism only about 20% of the income in local businesses remains. This is why we promote tourism organized and managed directly by the community, so that they can retain most of the income and not foreign companies, and the tourist knows closely the culture and traditions of the community.
COMMUNITY BASED TOURISM
Ecologic Tourism
Traditional tourism destroys local culture, degrades the environment and disguises the community with establishments of foreign products. We seek to promote eco-tourism in areas of conservation that promote cultural and ecosystem diversity, respecting the community, culture and natural areas.
Local Flavours
The cuisine of Mérida is one of the most recognized at national level, which you can find in our dishes, as well as varieties of local fruits and vegetables, which help to preserve the gastronomic diversity of our country.
Furniture
We work with artisans, carpenters and local artists to promote local cultural identity. Many of our furniture was restored to have new life and others were built with different types of recycled wood.
CULTURAL PATRIMONY
Preservation of Native Plants
In Mexico there are around 2,557 species and subspecies in the risk category (extinction, threat, special protection). We seek to help preserve our species of native and local plants, so you can find some in our gardens.
