A note from Six Senses Hideaway Samui:

“Six Senses Hideaway Samui is located on a headland on the northern tip of Samui Island, Thailand.

It is set amongst twenty acres of indigenous plantings and offers stunning views of the surrounding sea and outlying islands. Our resort is managed by Six Senses Resorts and Spas, an acknowledged industry leader in environmental responsibility through careful consideration of the effects that operating systems, materials and purchasing policies have on the environment, we are continually developing new initiatives and procedures to minimize our ecological impact.

Six Senses Hideaway Samui has been Green Globe 21 Benchmarked on 20 December 2006. In particular we have achieved Best Practice results in six indicators: Water Saving, Waste Recycling, Community Commitment, Community Contributions, Paper Products and Pesticide Products.

In the last year we have started a lot of projects to minimise our impact on the environment and the (local) community. A few examples are creating our own bio-diesel, filtering and recycling our wastewater and working together with UNICEF and Restaurants Against Hunger. Currently we are looking at many more upgrading projects at our Heart of the House area in order to support the environment.”
