Waste Management Practices

We're committed to reducing single-use plastics. We provide refillable drinking glass and stainless steel straws to reduce plastic waste. We also encourage the reuse of some plastic waste for ornamentals.
Bahari Beach Hotel provides designated bins meant to segregate waste. This allows for responsible recycling and disposal of each category
Once segregated, your waste is picked up by a licensed waste handler. This ensures it's processed and disposed of according to the highest environmental standards
To minimize waste from disposable toiletries, we offer shower gel in large dispensers. We also prioritize the use of biodegradable cleaning products throughout the hotel.

Sustainable Water Management Practices

Bahari Beach Hotel utilizes a borehole for our water needs, reducing reliance on municipal supplies. The extracted water undergoes rigorous treatment with reverse osmosis to ensure its purity.
Treated water is stored in both underground and overhead tanks, ensuring consistent supply. We also utilize low-flow showerheads and faucets to minimize water usage
Greywater from laundry and the pool is treated through soak pits, while black and grey water from guest rooms undergoes septic tank treatment before reaching soak pits. Bio-digesters further enhance this process for responsible water recycling.
Regular effluent sampling and testing ensure we meet all environmental regulations. We hold a valid Effluent Discharge Licence, demonstrating our commitment to responsible water management.
