Lapita paves the way for sustainable hospitality with green initiatives

Dubai: In line with its commitment to environmental responsibility, Lapita, Dubai Parks™ and Resorts, proudly unveils a series of impactful sustainability initiatives that emphasize its dedication to eco-friendly practices.

The hotel recently introduced an advanced hydroponic farming system within the resort, cultivating organic vegetables on-site for direct use in the property’s restaurants. The cutting-edge system utilizes innovative agricultural technology, foregoing traditional soil-based methods for nutrient-rich water solutions, ensuring high-quality, pesticide-free produce. The harvested produce quickly makes its way from cultivation to the plate, seamlessly integrating into the hotel's culinary offerings, allowing for a farm-to-table dining experience that highlights the freshness and quality of the ingredients.

Lapita's commitment to sustainability extends to its water consumption practices. The establishment has implemented a water bottling system wherein glass bottles are reused and filled with in-house drinkable water. Collaborating with Simply Bottles, Lapita has also initiated an innovative plastic bottle recycling program that transforms collected plastic bottles into threads, producing various items such as clothing, caps, bags, and more.

The UAE's first and only Polynesian resort is also the proud holder of the prestigious Green Key Certification – a symbol of its commitment to sustainable tourism. The certification guides every decision made across the hotel’s operations. Adopting
