The Hotel Es Port in Mallorca is the first hotel in Spain GSTC-Certified by Vireo, a GSTC-Accredited Certification Body.
The GSTC Certification is based on the globally recognized standard for sustainable tourism, the GSTC Hotel Criteria. By achieving this certification, Hotel Es Port demonstrates its commitment to sustainable practices.
The Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) manages the GSTC Criteria, the global standards for sustainable travel and tourism and provides international accreditation for sustainable tourism Certification Bodies.
Accredited means that a Certification Body (CB) has been verified through a rigorous external review from an accreditation body whereby the GSTC provides assurance that the CB awards certification to businesses according to processes that comply with international standards and good practices.
The certification, issued by Vireo, a GSTC-Accredited Certification Body, recognizes Es Port’s continuous efforts to improve its environmental performance and sustainability practices. The certification involves implementing rigorous criteria in areas such as energy and water efficiency, waste management, support for local communities, and the protection of cultural and natural heritage.
The team at Es Port expressed gratitude for this recognition and emphasized their commitment to continue promoting sustainable tourism. The hotel, located in Port de Sóller, Mallorca, is committed to maintaining high standards of environmental care and contributing to the preservation of the environment in which it is situated.
