SUSTAINABILITY

Drift Away Lodge

At Drift Away Lodge, we prioritize the environment and strive to have a positive impact on Playa Avellanas and Playa Negra. Our goal is to maintain high sustainability standards in all of our daily operations, and to support the local communities in any way we can.

Sustainable practices for a better world

Our lodge relied heavily on locally sourced supplies in its construction. Whenever feasible, we utilized natural and recycled materials and integrated low VOC products to reduce the release of harmful gasses into the surrounding environment.

In our efforts to minimize our ecological impact, we have implemented measures to conserve water and electricity while simultaneously guaranteeing the comfort of our guests. To preserve our land’s fragile ecosystem, we exclusively use biodegradable and natural cleaning products across our property. Furthermore, we provide all our guests with biodegradable natural toiletries and encourage their use during their stay.

Environmental consciousness & responsibility

Our pool employs a state-of-the-art cleaning and filtration system that utilizes UV and ionization technology. This innovative approach significantly reduces the need for harmful chemicals, ensuring the safety of our guests, regardless of their age.
Our property is committed to sustainability and eco-friendliness, with a strict plastic-free policy in place. Furthermore, we strive to recycle and compost as much of our waste as possible.
In our hiring process, we prioritize local staff and invest in their growth by providing relevant training and support to enhance their skills and experiences.
Throughout their stay, our guests have the opportunity to reduce their carbon footprint and positively impact the community. Our complimentary bike rentals, local restaurant recommendations, and support of local artisans are just a few examples.
We continuously seek ways to improve our business practices to operate more sustainably and responsibly. Our commitment to sustainability is an ever-evolving agenda.
