Sustainable Practices

Sustainability Manual Hotel Amazon Bed and Breakfast

At Amazon B&B Hotel, the commitment to the environment and sustainability is part of our reason for being. The Hotel has a sustainability policy and a handbook of good practices that reduce the impact on our daily operation.

Therefore, our primary purpose is to make it possible for every citizen of the world to dream of witnessing the existence of our green treasure in the Colombian Amazon.  It requires, however, a strong commitment with the preservation of its fragile ecosystem in every contact and intervention we perform. Thus, we express our gratitude and respect for this great gift that mother nature offers to humanity. Our facilities follow this principle: to take special care of both our guests and the Amazon.

 

Accordingly, we comply with the Colombian Sectoral Standards (NTS – TS 002) that provides regulations for accommodation and lodging establishments (EAH) (Sustainability requirements, 2014)
