At Sala Evason Hideaway and Spa at Samui we promote awareness of sustainability amongst our hosts, guests, local communities and suppliers/business partners through training programmes, regular environmental awareness events and engaging business partners. Some of our awareness creating efforts are listed below.

Hosts

All our hosts have followed the 'Green Training Module'. In this module, our hosts receive basic eco awareness training, which includes basic training in energy and water saving measures and recycling. In addition to this training, we also offer our hosts monthly bio-diesel training. Furthermore, we arrange social responsibility and environmental awareness events for host participation including World Earth Day on 22 April, on which we clean local beaches and coral.

Guests

We actively promote awareness amongst our guests on local community and the environment in which we operate. Our guests are informed of local cultural sensitivities, lifestyles, and environment and encouraged to support the local economy. Amongst other ways of creating awareness, we offer our guests a complimentary Thai Culture Class. This class is given every Monday and Friday at Chill on the Hill and this class includes history, government, people & religion, thai food, social norms and customs. Furthermore, we educate them on local environment concerns and encourage them to off-set their carbon emissions from flying through The CarbonNeutral Company.
