Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa Supports World Water Day All Year-Round

March 2022 - World Water Day 2022, on 22 March, is about water and climate change and how the two are inextricably linked; Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa has been passionate for a long time about implementing innovations to reduce water waste, improve the efficacy of water systems at the resort, and take steps toward a more sustainable future.

Established on Silhouette since 2011, Hilton Labriz continues to redefine the idea of conscious travelling with a wide range of sustainability initiatives. Since 25th December 2017, the resort has operated its own water bottling plant on Mount Dauban, the highest peak on Silhouette Island, where the water is filtered and placed in reusable glass bottles that are used throughout Silhouette and sent on to the two sister properties, Hilton Northolme and DoubleTree Allamanda. The end goal is to eliminate the use of plastic bottles on the island by using refillable glass bottles across all rooms and restaurants. The water bottling plant now eliminates up to 3800kg of plastic bottle waste.

General Manager at Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort and Spa, Andre Borg, commented “Since introducing the bottling plant and producing our own drinking water, the combined efforts of the Hilton hotels in Seychelles have saved 20,000 plastic bottles each month. In addition, the production of our own water saves on importing bottled water and reduces the number of plastic and glass bottles that need to be disposed of.”

The resort has been awarded 'Best Eco-Friendly Enterprise of the Year' for a second consecutive year at the Seychelles Chamber of Commerce and Industry Business Awards and Green Globe recently awarded its prestigious certification also. Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa has also been crowned Africa and Indian Ocean's winner of the Hilton “Driving Value” initiative, which focuses on reducing energy and water consumption in resort while maintaining the best quality of service for guests and team members. 

The beautiful resort, located on Silhouette Island, was built to incorporate and celebrate nature on this organically rich and biologically diverse isle. Over 90% of the island itself is a protected nature reserve, as are the waters that surround it. Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa is already making great strides in their efforts to use water more efficiently and to reduce greenhouse gases, and continuously implement new eco-friendly policies to continue to make Labriz a more sustainable resort for everyone.
