Eco Friendly Resort
Sankara Hotel & Spa Yakushima is a beacon of sustainability, harmoniously blending its operations with the rich natural environment of Yakushima. It displays this through eco-conscious initiatives such as providing amenities made from natural materials, sourcing fire pit wood from local offcuts, and transitioning to a hybrid fleet of rental vehicles. Additionally, the hotel has established Team Zero Waste Sankara, a group dedicated to making the property more environmentally friendly. Their initiatives include a significant reduction in single-use plastics, elimination of single-use plastic drink bottles, and monthly cleanups of Yakushima’s forests, beaches, and towns.

Further cementing their dedication to sustainability and respect for local resources, the hotel embraces the concept of local production for local consumption. It has strong relationships with local farmers and seafood suppliers, ensuring that their cuisine is not just delicious, but also supports the local economy. Even compostable waste finds a new purpose, being supplied to local poultry farmers as fertilizer. This all is part of the “For Yakushima” Declaration - Sankara Hotel & Spa's pledge to protect the island’s natural World Heritage site, run the hotel sustainably, provide financial support for nature conservation through the Sankara Fund, and promote local sourcing for their restaurants. By these means, the hotel contributes to the community and fosters the unique nature that makes Yakushima so special.
