Benefits of an ESG Strategy in Your Resort
ESG strategies to boost your business’s resilience, assessing future risks and opening doors to the growing number of eco-conscious travelers and investors.
In today’s competitive hospitality industry, adopting sound Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategies and policy is no longer optional—it’s essential. ESG reporting is the new accounting of company activity – it will change departments, roles and accountability and risks facing the company – and it is mandatory. Read more
Resorts embracing ESG principles are more efficient, not only shaping a better world but gaining a significant edge in the market. 
Eco-conscious travelers and investors seek businesses that prioritize sustainability; business travelers have to report their own corporate Carbon footprint as a part of their company ESG Reporting and many travel buyers now exclude high-footprint operators for corporate travel.
Here’s why integrating an ESG strategy can transform your resort’s performance and reputation:
1. Tap into the biggest Growth Market.
The eco-conscious travel segment is booming, driven by Gen Z, Millennials, and even luxury-seeking Baby Boomers. These travelers are willing to spend more on with businesses that align with their values. An ESG strategy positions your resort as a leader, making it a top choice for this expanding demographic.
2. Stay Ahead of Regulatory Changes
ESG reporting is becoming a legal requirement in most countries, and if you sell your property within the EU then you are required to submit a report. (By law all larger European Outbound Operators must submit an ESG report which includes their supply-chain). By implementing ESG strategies early with substantiated data, your resort will not only comply with evolving regulations but also demonstrate proactive leadership. The risks of non-compliance is exclusion from their brochures and listings. Do not underestimate the power of forward-thinking partners, investors and stakeholders.
3. Boost Operational Efficiency
Sustainability isn’t just good for the planet—it’s good for your bottom line. Energy-efficient systems, waste reduction programs, and sustainable sourcing can significantly lower operational costs. Simultaneously, these initiatives can enhance the guest experience, creating a win-win situation.
4. Enhance Brand Reputation
Today’s travelers value authenticity. By adopting ESG strategies, your resort can highlight genuine efforts to contribute to environmental and social regeneration. Showcase these initiatives on your website, social media, and marketing campaigns to build trust and loyalty among guests. Currently there is 50-80% leakage of revenues from the destination, and this is being legislated against in most destinations.
5. Attract Impact-Driven Investors
Investors are increasingly prioritizing businesses with strong ESG performance. Banks lenders and Institutional investors need to disclose the footprint of their partners – and many have been taken to courts for making poor decisions – they are cautious. An actionable ESG plan can unlock new funding opportunities, while also ensuring long-term financial sustainability.
