The Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) is a non-profit organization that establishes and manages global sustainability standards in the Travel and Tourism Sector known as the GSTC Criteria. Likewise, it offers international accreditation for sustainable tourism Certification Organizations.

The Global Sustainable Tourism Council was created in 2007 by the following organizations: the United Nations Foundation, the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), the Organization government Rainforest Alliance, and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF).

The GSTC Criteria were created to reach a common understanding in the world of sustainable tourism, and represent the minimum that a tourism company should aim to achieve. The GSTC defines sustainable tourism through four fundamental pillars namely: effective planning and management for sustainability, maximization of social and economic benefits for the local community; strengthening cultural heritage and minimizing negative impacts, maximizing environmental benefits and minimizing negative impacts.

At Hotel Es Port we are committed to the best environmental practices, reducing the consumption of natural resources and raw materials in all our facilities and services in order to ensure sustainability over time.

We work together with our suppliers, continually reviewing our purchasing criteria in order to reduce the negative impact and enhance the positive impact of our purchases. To this end, we take into account aspects such as: the origin of the products, materials and manufacturing conditions, among others.

We seek to minimise the generation of waste and we manage those that are produced in an appropriate manner with the collaboration of authorised companies.

We involve our guests in the care of the environment, telling our story and transmitting our love for the island, raising awareness of the importance of its care and the preservation of natural and cultural resources.

We work closely with local suppliers, trying to reduce the pollution produced by transport, thus adding value to the local economy.

For all this, it is essential to have the involvement of all the people who work there, so we encourage direct communication with all employees, respecting and establishing a safe working culture that respects their rights at all times.

Our main objective is to improve day by day by providing a quality service to all our customers.

We invite you to get to know us better and to see all the actions we carry out in the blog of our website.
