SUSTAINABILITY

AT SLS PLAYA MUJERES

At SLS Playa Mujeres, we are committed to conducting our operations with the highest environmental, social, and ethical standards, actively contributing to a sustainable future.

Sustainability pillars

Positive Employer | Social
We cultivate a workplace culture founded on respect, inclusion, and diversity. Our environment empowers individuals to thrive, ensuring they are valued for who they are within a safe and collaborative setting.

Positive Planet | Environmental
We take proactive steps to minimise our environmental impact by optimising resource use, including energy, water, and materials. This encompasses the gradual elimination of single-use plastics and the reduction of food waste across all operations.

Positive Community | Social
We engage with local communities through volunteer initiatives, partnerships with non-profit organisations, and projects that promote social well-being. Our goal is to be a responsible neighbour and a valued contributor to local development.

Environmental Education and Awareness
We champion environmental awareness and education among colleagues, guests, and strategic partners. Through targeted training, campaigns, and communication programmes, we seek to embed a culture of sustainability both within and beyond the hotel.

GREEN KEY

Green Key is an international eco-label for tourism facilities. Since 1994, Green Key has been a leading standard of excellence in environmental responsibility and sustainable operation within the tourism industry. The Green Key programme is run internationally by the Foundation for Environmental Education. In England it is managed by the environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy.

Green Key provides a well-proven framework for an establishment to work with its environmental management on sustainability issues, including awareness raising. The high environmental standards expected of these establishments are maintained through rigorous documentation and frequent on-site audits.

For guests, a Green Key shows that the establishment is committed to reducing the environmental impact of their stay. The Green Key programme is linked to the Sustainable Development Goals 2015-2030 addressed by the United Nations.
