\u201cThe tree symbolises our unwavering commitment to sustainability and is inspired by OUTRIGGER Zone, our global conservation initiative. It is a powerful reminder of the positive impact we can make by embracing eco-friendly practices in the travel and hospitality industry,\u201d said Resort Manager Sujittra Rongmuang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This recycled Christmas tree has become a captivating focal point, sparking meaningful conversations among guests about the urgency of reducing waste and the significance of adopting sustainable habits in daily life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur Christmas tree is a testament to the power of creativity, community, the true spirit of Christmas and, most importantly, our collective responsibility to care for the environment,\u201d said Ms Rongmuang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located on the serene Bang Sak beach, OUTRIGGER Khao Lak Beach Resort, a 158-key garden resort, offers a delightful beachfront setting just a 90-minute drive north of Phuket International Airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The resort’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond the festive season, with various eco-friendly initiatives to minimise its environmental footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, the resort’s hosts clean the beach in front of the property; no plastic straws are used in the hotel; the kitchen reuses waste food for organic compost in its herb garden; and automatic electricity cut-out activates when guests leave their room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
