The award is due to the implementation of innovative automated systems to control consumption, the introduction of biomass technology for heating pools, the use of geothermal systems, the installation of air-conditioning facilities with heat recovery systems and the implementation of CO2 indicators. These measures are a sign of the company's firm commitment to develop more efficient hotels that help preserve the natural environment of the islands.
