Stewards of the Environment

The Gili Lankanfushi Resort has been built with the sensitivity of its surroundings in mind. The resorts buildings are constructed out of responsibly sourced local materials like teak, palm wood, bamboo, and palm fronds that have been harvested during the island’s rehabilitation process. Rooms feature organic toiletries in refillable earthenware containers to minimize plastic usage and waste, and a dedicated desalination plant is the source of still and sparkling water for all guests.

Local ingredients are also sourced, including pole-caught seafood and vegetables from the Gili Lankanfushi organic vegetable garden. Guests can also get involved in coral cleaning adventures that collect underwater data that leading scientific organizations like Manta Trust, and other sustainable initiatives can use to protect the precious ocean environment.
