The eco-conscious Apeiros Chora is highly acclaimed for its commitment to sustainable practices, having received recognition such as TripAdvisor GreenLeaders and the Booking Sustainable Hotels certification. An impressive aspect of the hotel's eco-friendly strategy is their renewable energy source - Biomass. This, along with a conscientious selection of sustainable building materials, reinforces their commitment to environmental sustainability. Each architectural detail, from the strategic structuring to maximise airflow and natural light, to the installation of triple-glazed windows, is meticulously designed to conserve energy.
Apeiros Chora's active role in eco-friendly initiatives such as reforestation and wildlife conservation is admirable. Efficient utilization of collected rainwater, coupled with the usage of environmentally friendly cleaning products, contributes to a healthy and sustainable environment at the hotel. Moreover, the hotel restaurant offers mouth-watering meals prepared with primarily local and organic ingredients, giving guests the opportunity to engage in sustainable gastronomy. The establishment is tastefully lit with LED lighting, providing an energy-saving solution that not only reduces carbon footprint but also creates a warm and welcoming ambiance throughout the property. Furthermore, an environmental manager, assigned specifically for the task, makes certain that all employees are thoroughly trained and consistently adhere to the hotel's eco-friendly guidelines. The hotel's toilets are designed for water conservation, using no more than 6 litres per flush, and signs inform guests that towels will only be changed upon request. The initiative extends to an in-house wastewater treatment facility, an essential part of the hotel's environmental policies. In the quest to reduce waste, no disposable cups, glasses, plates, or cutlery are used, and the toilet paper is either non-chlorine bleached or awarded with an eco-label. Apeiros Chora truly exemplifies the idea of a sustainable vacation haven.
