19 April 2021
Perched in the middle of the Greek peninsula of Kassandra, Sani Resort delights its guests with the azure waters of the Aegean Sea, the breathtaking Cape Sani and kilometres of sandy beaches. At this year's World Travel Awards 2020, the resort was named number one in the "World's Leading Luxury Green Resort" category. This means that the luxury destination has particularly impressed with outstanding efforts in the area of sustainable and ethical business practices.
The Sani Resort inspires with ecological commitment and pure luxury
The natural area of the Sani Resort extends over an area of more than one thousand hectares. Besides the paradisiacal sea, the fragrant pine forests also provide a feeling of complete relaxation. So while guests are pursuing their luxury vacation, the resort is actively involved in preserving the nature reserve. The beaches, for example, have ten "blue flags" that distinguish sustainable tourism. The resort also offers its guests tours to encourage them to actively enjoy nature. The bird watching tours on the peninsula provide guests with unique experiences and the opportunity to observe up to 225 different bird species. The nearby beehives can also be visited, as well as the traditional Greek olive harvest.
Winning at this year's World Travel Awards is a great achievement for the company. Eleni Andreadis, Director of Sustainability at Sani Resort explains: "We are very proud to have been recognised in the Luxury Green Resort category at this year's awards. We look forward to continuing to evolve in the sustainable hospitality industry to create unparalleled holiday experiences in the future. The award is not only great success for Sani Resort and all our staff who give their best every day, but also spurs us on to continue to pursue our ambitious environmental goals to the best of our ability."
The Sani Green Program
Thanks to the concepts currently in place, such as the Sani Green Programme - which focuses on improving overall sustainable performance and eco-balance, the resort has already achieved an impressive feat. To date, improved energy efficiency, the use of renewable energy sources, water savings and the overall sustainable orientation of the resort have been demonstrated. At the heart of Sani Resort's sustainability vision is the goal of becoming Greece's first carbon neutral resort by 2023.
