This distinction recognizes the work these hotels do to reduce their environmental impact by implementing sustainable practices, community outreach, and conservation, such as their programs for the protection of sea turtles.
The Blue Flag distinction is an international recognition that is awarded to beaches and marinas that reach standards of excellence in water quality, management, and environmental education in order to sustainably preserve our coasts, oceans, and bodies of water.
