SustainABIlity

A sustainable hotel

At the Abi d’Oru Hotel & Spa we believe that small communities like ours can have a positive impact on the health of the planet, with little or no sacrifice. We have therefore embarked on a journey to become a fully sustainable structure, with a low or zero carbon footprint and the prestigious BREEAM In-Use certification (which assesses the sustainability performance of existing buildings), thank to significant investment in our infrastructure which will be completed in 2024.

So what are we doing to guide our community towards constantly reducing our environmental impact?

No to disposable plastic

We only use bamboo straws and the water bottles we provide guests with are in Tetra Pak®.

We educate our guests, through special printed materials, not to bring products packaged in disposable plastic into the hotel.

All of our employees are provided with a water bottle that can be filled at any time at the 8 dispensers at their disposal.

We limit consumption

We have started the process of replacing all the bulbs in the resort with LEDs, changing than 2.000 this year, with the aim of reducing power consumption by 70%.
We have upgraded our air conditioning, hot water and backup energy systems with energy recovery heat pumps, ultra-high efficiency refrigeration units and magnetic levitation inverter compressors, increasing our energy efficiency by 700%.
The new LPG emergency generators significantly limit NOx and CO₂ equivalent emissions.

We respect water

In addition to the 8 water dispensers for staff, purified using advanced ultra-filtration, 3 water supply systems purified by osmosis serve the kitchens.

Our cooks use purified water, as do several Michelin-starred chefs around the world.

We keep the sea clean

Our beach staff are in charge of removing any plastic brought ashore by the sea and separating it in our two recycling centres, which are organised in a highly efficient manner.

It’s in the name: we support a bee colony

In order to highlight the value of the island’s natural and traceable products, we started The Abi Bees project, adopting 10 families of bees which guests young and old can safely visit, hearing from the beekeeper himself about the importance of bees for the future of life on Earth.

We hire local staff where possible

We mainly use the expertise of the local workforce (about 86%), supporting the local economy and limiting the travel required to get to the hotel.

We consume genuine local food

Every year we increase the number of quality local suppliers that feed our kitchens and pantries. In 2021 we will reach 65% of food sourced locally and 70% of beverages, including mineral water from the nearby town of Tempio.
VeG, our new veggie & vegan gourmet restaurant, offers and promotes a diet based on organic and locally sourced products, so local that the vegetables come from our very own kitchen garden.

We plant evergreen shrubs

More than 5.000 new shrubs have been planted in the park surrounding the hotel in the last 3 years. These are all examples of native flora, fragrant essences such as myrtle, strawberry trees and mastic, which produce oxygen throughout the year, and that characteristic scent of Sardinia so loved by visitors.

We support electric mobility

We have installed the first charging station for bikes and electric cars in our car park. A fleet of electric-assisted bikes is available for local excursions and trips.

We spread the word with SustainABIlity

SustainABIlity is a guidebook of positive behaviour for the planet which we provide in our rooms, illustrating habits that everyone can implement to limit their impact on the environment, including choosing not to have their linen washed every day.

The guidelines are enriched by an illustrated reference to the 17 Sustainability Goals of the United Nations and a QR code that allows you to view them online.
