The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort announces that it has been awarded the prestigious Green Globe Certificate, the world’s leading certification for sustainable operation and management of travel and tourism worldwide. The resort’s sustainability efforts are deeply integrated into its operations.
In partnership with Reefscapers, the resort plays an active role in coral reef restoration, inviting guests to participate in hands-on coral planting initiatives. The resort also employs a comprehensive waste management strategy that includes advanced recycling and composting systems. To support local communities and reduce its environmental footprint, the resort sources organic, locally grown produce and sustainable seafood.
A key milestone in the resort’s sustainability journey is the introduction of Fen, the resort’s signature still and sparkling water, named after the Maldivian word for “water.” Sourced from the ocean, Fen is filtered and desalinized on-site through the resort’s newly installed, eco-conscious bottling plant, designed to minimize carbon emissions. For every bottle sold, USD $3 is contributed to the resort’s Blue Fund, which directly supports coral propagation projects with Reefscapers.
Fen water is available as a complimentary offering during breakfast and at the beach. It is also featured on all restaurant and bar menus, enhancing the guest experience while actively reducing single-use plastic waste. The resort also features local products and endorses Maldivian artisanal crafts, further enriching the cultural connection between guests and the island.
“We are deeply honored to receive the Green Globe Certification, which reflects the dedication of our team in embracing sustainability at every level of our operations,” said Vincent Pauchon, the General Manager at The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort. “Our commitment to preserving the natural environment of this island is at the heart of everything we do. Sustainability is not just a practice; it is a promise we make to future generations, ensuring that luxury and conservation go hand in hand.”
