Our Stories

We provided shelter after the latest earthquake

When the latest earthquake hit, we opened our doors to provide shelter for those who were displaced. We worked with local authorities to coordinate relief efforts and provided food and water for those in need. It was a challenging time, but we felt proud to be able to provide some comfort during a difficult situation. Our guests were supportive of our efforts, and it brought our community closer together. We hope we never have to do it again, but we stand ready to help if needed.

We reduced food waste by 60%

We are a committed to reducing food waste. We've implemented several initiatives such as ordering smaller quantities, donating leftovers to local food banks, and composting food scraps. We've also trained our staff to be more conscious of food waste, and encourage guests to order only what they can eat. Our efforts have paid off, and we've reduced our food waste by 60%. It's not just good for the environment, but it's also good for our bottom line. We're proud to be making a positive impact, and we hope to inspire others to do the same.

We planted new mangroves around our beach

We've planted mangroves along the coast to increase our tsunami protection. The mangroves not only help to prevent erosion, but also provide a habitat for marine life. We've also educated our guests about the importance of protecting our environment and reducing their carbon footprint. It's important for us to take action to protect our community and the planet. We're proud to be part of the solution, and we hope to inspire others to do the same.
