Sustainability

Architecturally

We adopted bioclimatic construction rules seeking to reduce to the minimum, the use of heating and air conditioning systems.

Furniture, Fixture and Equipment

• Our ceramic sanitary is for Parion Opus from Catalano, a leading industry Italian company with certifications that guarantee environmental control of product life cycles in compliance with rigorous international standards.
• Our mattresses come for Parion Opus from Simmons which produce comfortable, luxury and innovative mattresses made of eco-friendly and recyclable materials while at Villa Kelly Rooms & Suites our mattresses come from Coco-mat, the leading Greek company in eco-natural products.
• Our pillow menu offers pillows made of natural and recyclable materials.
• Our linen are produced from 100% fine cotton.

Energy Conservation

• We covered at Parion Opus all the building with thermal insulation thus saving energy up to 50% for cooling and heating purposes.
• We invested in a high efficiency heating and cooling system with a solar panel roof which can produce hot water for almost 24hrs and serve as a great heating source in the cold season.
• We have installed an automated energy management system that includes smart metering and 24hrs energy consumption monitoring.
• We have installed at Parion Opus smart guestroom thermostats in all our Suites that are designed to control lighting and room temperature.
• We use key cards needed for room power.
• We use low-consumption illumination LED bulbs for maximum energy saving.
• We have installed sensor-based lights at the common areas.
• We have developed energy conservation plans with specific tactics for operating optimally including topics like lighting schedules.

Water Conservation

• We implement the linen and towel reuse program in order to reduce the use of water, energy and detergents.
• All our planting has been carefully chosen to provide the necessary aesthetics but also requires low frequency and quantity of watering.

Recycling and Reducing Waste

• While variability in municipal infrastructure presents challenges, we strive to reduce waste and increase recycling rates.
• We use soap dispensers in public WCs.
  

Bath Amenities

We co-operate with APIVITA cosmetics that combines naturally derived active ingredients, extracts from plants of the Greek nature, beehive products of high nutritional value and organic essential oils. APIVITA’s formulations contain 85-100% natural ingredients which do not contain silicones, parabens, mineral oil, propylene glycol, polycyclic musks, nitromusks, phthalates, as well as other ingredients that have been associated with adverse effects on health or the environment.

Cleaning Products

We recognize the importance of safer products for guests and employees as well as the environment, therefore we use cleaning products that are environmentally friendly. By using these cleaning agents, we are reducing the use of products with chlorine bleach and petrochemical derivatives. These more natural products are less irritating to guests and employees and less destructive to the environment.

Building a Culture of Environmental Awareness

• The basics are just as important for making an impact. Through training, we prompt our staff to reiterate the importance of simple steps such as turning off faucets while cleaning and pre-heating kitchen oven only when needed.
• We respect the natural surroundings both in social and natural terms. This means not contaminating and respecting the local culture.

Local Economy

• We contribute to the community´s development by supporting local businesses.
• We promote the consumption of local and ecologic products.
