SUSTAINABILITY
our culture

Living by our
green values

Our commitment to sustainability is a clear reflection of our brand’s purpose: to immerse our guests in a sensory experience that spans every dimension of their stay.
This ability to unite all stakeholders in a common goal generates a positive impact on the planet, people, and the economy.

We aim to inspire and sensitize, advocating for the protection of the common good—our planet.
Inspira Water
The water supplied in the hotel is bottled using recycled and reusable glass bottles, preventing the use of thousands of plastic bottles each year. By choosing our water, you’re helping rural communities in developing countries gain access to clean water, sanitation, and education programs. This initiative also generates employment and stimulates local economies.
What happens to room water leftovers?

We offset
your stay

Every year, we counterbalance our greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by financing biodiversity conservation projects. This environmental contribution is included in your daily rate at €0.20/night, reflecting a portion of your carbon footprint linked to your trip and stay with us.

Our aim is to reduce our carbon footprint while fostering awareness of a more conscious and responsible consumption of natural resources.

OUR TRASH, NOT GOING TO WASTE!
Every day, we’re dedicated to preventing waste generation and raising awareness about waste reduction. We actively promote and advocate for the selective separation of waste, aiming to reduce food waste in our breakfast and lunch buffets.
Waste Management
We have implemented waste separation practices across all departments and areas, and we kindly encourage our guests to participate in the same effort

We’ve proactively tackled kitchen food waste by:

  • Managing orders, receptions, storage, production, and distribution of food products with precision.
  • Implementing portion control and advocating single portions at buffets.
  • Maximizing food usage, repurposing all parts of vegetables for sauces and broths.
  • Ensuring weekly product checks and monthly inventories to maintain expiry dates and efficient inventory management.
We responsibly repurpose leftover room water by utilizing it for cleaning purposes, supported by a deposit built in our stewarding area.
COMMUNITY
Our local parish
Our approach is forward-thinking when it comes to engaging with the local community. We deeply respect its sociocultural authenticity and proactively contribute to its growth by supporting initiatives and forming partnerships.
Together with the local community, we champion sustainable tourism that generates employment, celebrates local culture, and highlights community products.

VALOR HUMANO – SOCIAL GROCERY
This Social Grocery Project, initiated by the Santo António Parish, uplifts communities through sustainable social initiatives. Exclusively for parish citizens with socio-economic challenges, identified by social action, it provides options like food, clothing, toiletries, and childcare essentials. Inspira, upon learning about this project, promptly joined by contributing goods to bolster the local community.
