How Earthstays makes a difference?
Earthstays enhances its sustainability efforts in the holiday accommodation sector through its comprehensive approach, rooted in two main pillars. Partnering with Sustonica for credible sustainability certification and implying ten Sustainability Criteria for all listings. By requiring accommodations to display a Sustonica badge and meet at least three of their ten Sustainability Criteria, Earthstays ensures guests can make informed, environmentally responsible choices. Their Criteria typically include the use of renewable energy, recycling facilities, water-saving devices, and the encouragement of biodiversity, among others.
