SOLAR PANELS

Many properties on Saadiyat Island have installed rooftop
solar panels to contribute to energy production, lessening
dependence on fossil fuels.

To reduce energy consumption, thermodynamic solar
block systems are also being implemented, which use the
surrounding temperature to generate hot water.

EV CHARGING STATIONS

To encourage guest use of electric vehicles, resorts and
properties across the island have installed EV charging
stations in their car parks.

WASTE RECYCLING

Our resorts have greatly improved waste segregation,
allowing for a higher volume of general waste to be recycled.

This allows us all to reduce the impact of landfill waste and
greenhouse gas emissions.

TURTLE PATROLS

In the summer nesting months, we invite resort guests and
community groups to take part in turtle patrols, monitoring
Saadiyat beach for turtle nesting activity.

This is part of the island-wide initiative to introduce,
educate and include our guests in sustainability activities.

ELIMINATION OF PLASTIC STRAWS

Several resorts across the island have completely
eliminated the use of plastic straws – and replaced plastic
in many other food and drink packaging items as well.

Most restaurants now offer straws made from
biodegradable and recycled materials, such as paper.

REPLACING PLASTIC WATER BOTTLES

With our «Trust Your Water» initiative, our guests enjoy
locally-sourced filtered water, available in both still and
sparkling varieties. This is delivered in reusable, eco-friendly
sports bottles that they can refill at our resort›s convenient
water stations.

BIDOEGRADABLE GUEST AMENITIES

Our guests enjoy all-natural, biodegradable soaps
and toiletries. These eco-friendly products, along
with their packaging, ensure that there’s minimal
environmental impact throughout your stay.
