ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS AT THE HEART OF HURAWALHI
Hurawalhi takes pride in a series of environmentally friendly undertakings and thereby continually works to minimise its impact on the fragile ecosystem that it is a part of. Going green is a responsibility rather than a choice, with sustainability and eco-consciousness not taking a back seat when ensuring guests’ satisfaction and comfort.
Solar energy system
Embracing the power of the sun
Harnessing solar energy on an island that receives opulent amounts of sunlight throughout the year is an obvious choice, yet Hurawalhi is one of the few Maldives’ resorts that tap into this renewable resource comprehensively.
Solar panels are installed on roofs of the team village, on the arrival jetty and on the jetty leading to the a la carte restaurants. Combined, Hurawalhi is proud to be equipped with 4,102.5 m2 of solar panels, which is approximately the size of 26 volleyball courts.
Energy-wise hot showers
Heat recovery system
The resort’s hot water requirements are met through a high-efficiency heat recovery system. Waste heat produced by generators is cleverly converted into sufficient amounts of electrical energy to enable you relaxing, hot showers without a negative impact on the environment.
Desalination and water bottling
Reducing plastic bottle waste
Hurawalhi is committed to reducing the amount of plastic water bottles and obtains water that quenches your thirst in glass bottles from the nearby sister resort Kuredu. In its desalination plant, fresh water is derived from seawater through reverse osmosis, mineralised and chilled, before being bottled in a top-of-the-line facility and delivered to Hurawalhi.
The proximity of the innovative plant enables Hurawalhi to decrease its carbon footprint and to significantly reduce the amount of plastic bottles used at the resort.
Food sustainability
Eat well, live well at Hurawalhi
Keeping nature and your health in mind, Hurawalhi’s eco-consciousness expands to food choices. Restaurants at Hurawalhi offer organic and biodynamic produce, allowing guests to enjoy wholesome, tasty and at the same time nature-friendly nutrition. The resort strives for maximum food transparency and thoughtfully sourced produce, and grows a variety of produce in its hydroponic greenhouse and open areas.
