The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort is proud to announce that it has achieved the esteemed Green Globe Certificate, a globally recognized standard for sustainable operations and management in the travel and tourism industry. This distinguished certification is a testament to the resort’s unwavering commitment to environmental conservation, responsible tourism, and sustainability, solidifying its dedication to preserving the natural beauty of the private island and its surrounding marine ecosystem.
The resort’s commitment to sustainability is deeply ingrained in its operations. In partnership with Reefscapers, the resort is actively involved in coral reef restoration initiatives and invites guests to participate in hands-on coral planting activities. Furthermore, the resort has implemented a comprehensive waste management strategy, which includes advanced recycling and composting systems. To support local communities and reduce its environmental footprint, the resort sources organic, locally grown produce and sustainable seafood.
A significant milestone in the resort’s sustainability journey is the launch of Fen, the signature still and sparkling water, named after the Maldivian word for “water.” This innovative water source is sourced from the pristine sea surrounding the island, carefully filtered and desalinised on-site through the resort’s eco-conscious bottling plant, designed to minimize carbon emissions. For every bottle sold, USD $3 is contributed to the resort’s Blue Fund, directly supporting coral propagation projects with Reefscapers. Fen water is available as a complimentary offering during breakfast and at the beach, and is also featured on all restaurant and bar menus, enhancing the guest experience while actively reducing single-use plastic waste. The resort is also proud to showcase local products and endorse Maldivian artisanal crafts, further enriching the cultural connection between guests and the island.
“We are deeply honored to receive the Green Globe Certification, which reflects the dedication of our team in embracing sustainability at every level of our operations,” said Vincent Pauchon, General Manager at The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort. “Our commitment to preserving the natural environment of this island is at the heart of everything we do. Sustainability is not just a practice; it is a promise we make to future generations, ensuring that luxury and conservation go hand in hand.”
As the first St. Regis resort on a private island, The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience a pristine tropical paradise, all while embodying the highest standards of luxury and sustainability. Set against a backdrop of sparkling sand, lush greenery, and the clear blue waters of the Indian Ocean, the resort is a model for sustainable luxury travel.
