SLH - Latest news & views for loyalty members

SLH's Considerate Collection Celebrates its First Birthday
How time flies...
Just over a year ago, SLH launched the Considerate Collection with 25 founding members of pioneering properties,
proving that luxury is compatible with longevity.
Environmentally-minded travel agents (like Rewarding Travel) can browse and book from a biodiversity-promoting
portfolio of boutique stays around the world, which have been hand-picked to help you find your perfect eco-escape.
These properties still need to pass the SLH Quality Assurance standards required by all SLH properties, so you can be assured that the
sustainability does not sacrifice luxe. You can read more about how these standards are measured and maintained in our Complete
Guide To SLH Invited.
As of this month, the collection celebrates 43 hotels (almost doubling in size) along with almost 40,000 trees
planted
in collaboration with TreeSisters.
The SLH Considerate Collection has also introduced a first-of-its-kind partnership with new sustainability platform Weeva,
and a collaboration with luxury amenities brand VANITY
GROUP.
SLH is one of our preferred groups and with the Considerate Collection, your stay will leave the softest of footprints on our
planet.
The properties within the Considerate Collection are stunning, so contact Rewarding Travel to learn
more for your next sustainable, luxe stay - with free perks !

Jade Mountain Joins Regenerative Travel
Jade Mountain in Saint Lucia has received Member Hotel Status from the Eco-Luxury
community Regenerative Travel as it becomes the latest addition to its portfolio of sustainable hotels.
Jade Mountain is an entirely hand-built hotel in St Lucia where the rooms have no outer walls and are completely open to the ocean and piton
views, each with its own private infinity pool or jacuzzi. Some readers may recall Jade Mountain was the hotel featured in the BBC 2 series Amazing
Hotels – Life Beyond the Lobby
(season 3, episode 4).
Regenerative Travel is a community of independent, luxury hotels that aim to shift the travel industry towards a more regenerative future.
Jade Mountain will receive a bespoke educational curriculum to further its commitment to regeneration. It will also be required to
undertake a regular self-assessment and report monthly on 29 indicators aligned with Regenerative Travel’s standards. This assessment holds
hotels accountable to its eco-credentials and is a showcase of activism towards a regenerative future.
Jade Mountain has practiced sustainability since its opening in 2006 and has placed emphasis on retaining as much economic benefits in the
region as possible. The property takes sustainable steps while educating guests about the culture, history and ecology of the region. For
instance, the resort has made its water supply independent from Soufriere so as not to impact the local community. All of the drinking water
at Jade Mountain is sourced from the river at Anse Mamin valley, which is then filtered and conditioned at the resort in a special treatment
facility. The resort also has its own rainwater-fed water purification plant system and recycles treated sewage water, which irrigates a
nursery which, in turn, propagates thousands of tropical plants for landscaping.
Jade Mountain was inspired by the philosophy of building in alignment with Caribbean nature. No machinery was used in its construction; it
also has either used all furniture and furnishings made locally or purchased them from local businesses. The property features rugged
stone-faced columns, individual bridges and infinity pool suites that overlook the Caribbean Sea.
All members of Jade Mountain’s construction team were from St Lucia and the hotel currently employs a 99 percent local workforce, making
them one of the most important employers in the region.
This stunning eco-luxury hotel is also a member of the Small Luxury Hotels program and guests can receive special
perks by booking through our affiliated travel agency or as members of SLH Invited.
SLH adds 5 new properties to its Considerate Collection
Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) has added 5 new properties to its Considerate Collection.
Launched in October 2021, in collaboration with respected sustainable travel and luxury hospitality players, each hotel within the Considerate
Collection has been either certified by a GSTC Accredited Certification Body, certified to a GSTC Recognized Standard, or has passed an assessment by
the SLH Sustainability Advisory Panel with review by the GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourism Council - the international, independent,
not-for-profit body established by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) and the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO);
The new properties are:
Castello di Reschio (Lisciano Niccone, Italy): Adopting an “as nature intended” approach towards the nine farmhouses
dotted across a 1,500-hectare country estate, the Bolza family introduced a rewilding program in the Umbrian wilderness which is now filled
with roe deer, wild boar and porcupines. While much of what is served is home-grown or foraged, Reschio also relies on a network of
hyperlocal suppliers.
Dar Ahlam (Ouarzazate, Morocco): This traditional Moroccan kasbah has been constructed using local materials such as
adobe, bamboo and wood from lemon and olive trees, minimizing its energy use by installing solar panels and a water treatment system which
makes tap water drinkable in the desert. Guests are immersed in Berber culture, from sleeping beneath the stars in a traditional tent, to
sunrise tea ceremonies in the Sahara.
Paradise Cove (Anse La Raie, Mauritius): Overlooking a natural lagoon, this boutique hotel actively contributes
towards the marine discovery center. It has also eliminated single-use plastic in the guest experience (swapping slippers made from plastic
to coconut straw), and employs “green” staff tracking the resort’s progress in its detailed sustainability report. The property runs a
dedicated space within the hotel for guests to discover locally and sustainably made products, from rattan baskets to swimwear made with
recycled boat sails.
Amilla Maldives (Baa Atoll, Maldives): Even without its EarthCheck Silver certified status, this Maldivian-owned
resort runs a range of eco-activities and initiatives, including a coral propagation project, white-tailed tropicbird breeding program,
complimentary bicycles and electric golf buggies.
Aristide Hotel (Syros, Greece): Housed within the former tax residency of the Cyclades, this plastic-free neoclassical
mansion uses solar panels to heat its water and offers ceramic amenities. To offset the carbon footprint of their guests, the art-centric
hotel runs a re-greening and tree-planting project in partnership with the Cyclades Preservation Fund.
