Eco initiatives – Responsible Tourism

Punnamada Resort in Alappuzha,Kerala is committed to preserving the local environment and at the same time making no compromise in the quality of service offered to the guests. We have a stringent policy of cutting no trees for construction or creation of facilities in the premises. We recycle and reuse as much of our resources as possible.
Here are some of our initiatives in sustainable tourism practices.

    1. Sewage Treatment Plant, which ensures that no polluted waters are let out from the resort.

    2. Water Recycling and Conservation Program to reuse the water for garden and flushes.

    3. Compost Pit for solid waste management. The manure generated is used effectively in the garden.

    4. Bio Gas Plant at the resort takes in kitchen waste to generate fuel which gets used in staff canteen.
