our eco credentials

At Eco Beach, we take our environmental resposibilities seriously, and we are proud to be at the forefront of ecologically sustainable luxury tourism, in both Australia and the world.

Here is a summary of some of the things we are doing to make a difference:

• Excess power generated by the solar panels is diverted into the Eco Beach grid and used where needed
• Eco Villas contain the latest in energy monitoring systems allowing guests to monitor and adjust their individual energy consumption throughout their stay
• The patented designs of our Eco Villas ensure they capture the best of the afternoon breezes, ensuring maximum ventilation and encouraging minimal use of fans and air conditioning
