Detailed description of the Caring for the Destination Initiative:
Stay among the palm-fringed beaches and virgin forests of Bokissa Private Island Resort. As one of the most environmentally conscious operators in Vanuatu, we believe that by adopting sustainable practices that preserve the natural beauty of the area our guests will have a better holiday experience. The resort was designed around the idea of keeping the impacts of tourism to a minimum, which is why the resort occupies only a small area of the island while the majority of space is kept undeveloped. This creates a pleasing and tranquil environment for our guests to enjoy. We also implemented the country's first eco-friendly sewage treatment plant, with any non-treatable waste removed to the mainland. This helps maintain the environmental integrity of the island. The resort also has an extensive rainwater catchment system and a desalination facility designed especially to provide guests with the purest water for drinking and personal use. At Bokissa Private Island Resort enjoy a relaxing holiday at a well cared for destination.
