• We are implementing targeted measures to reduce energy and water consumption in our clubs, as well as to cut emissions and waste.
• We regularly review which technical solutions can help us achieve our consumption and emissions targets.
• Our staff receive regular training so that they can play an active part in achieving these targets.

• We adhere to the principles of the circular economy wherever this is feasible within our business:
• When selecting products and materials, we prioritise durability, reusability, repairability and the potential for upgrading.
• We actively reduce the use of single-use products and replace them, where possible, with durable alternatives.
• In addition, we use digital solutions to monitor and manage resource consumption effectively.

• We invest in regular training and professional development for our staff so that they can carry out their duties using up-to-date knowledge and skills.
• We actively involve local partners and producers in our procurement and operational processes, thereby contributing to economic development in the regions where we operate.
• Through location-specific projects and initiatives, we make our contribution to the respective local community.

ROBINSON APULIA has been generating electricity from solar energy since 2017: 3,280 solar panels with a total capacity of 1 MWp are installed on the club’s roofs and the carport. The system generates 1.131 GWh of electricity from renewable sources annually, making it, as things stand, the most powerful photovoltaic system of all TUI clubs worldwide.

Other ROBINSON clubs are also turning to solar energy for electricity generation: ROBINSON DAIDALOS, ROBINSON QUINTA DA RIA, ROBINSON CALA SERENA, ROBINSON IERAPETRA and ROBINSON NOONU already have their own photovoltaic systems. Further systems are planned for the ROBINSON CABO VERDE and ROBINSON MALDIVES clubs.

In the Maldives, the responsible use of resources and the reduction of waste are particularly important – as an archipelago with limited infrastructure and a natural environment worthy of protection.

ROBINSON MALDIVES is implementing concrete measures in this context, thereby helping to conserve local resources.

One example: the club produces drinking water on-site. This yields 7,500 litres of fresh water every week, which is bottled in glass bottles and carbonated – entirely without the use of single-use plastic bottles. The slogan for this is: “14,000 drops of sparkling island water”. Furthermore, food waste at the club is converted into nutrient-rich compost using a composting machine. This is used as a natural fertiliser on the surrounding islands – thus turning kitchen waste into a raw material for local agriculture.

ROBINSON CALA SERENA and ROBINSON QUINTA DA RIA were the first clubs in the ROBINSON portfolio to introduce water dispensers – as an alternative to single-use plastic bottles. Today, almost all ROBINSON clubs have water dispensers: either connected to the mains (point-of-use) or using gallon bottles (bottled water coolers).

You can top up your bottles at various locations around the club as you wish – chilled, still or sparkling. The water dispensers replace single-use plastic bottles in the club, thereby reducing the amount of plastic waste generated, whilst also being more cost-effective.

At the ROBINSON SARIGERME PARK on the Turkish Riviera , mosquitoes are kept at bay in a rather unusual way: with guinea fowl.

The birds roam freely across the club grounds and eat insects – without the use of any chemical insecticides. This reduces the number of mosquito bites for guests whilst, at the same time, avoiding the use of pesticides on the club grounds.

For our guests, the guinea fowl have long been more than just a practical measure: their peaceful wandering across the open spaces is part of the club’s unique character and is enjoyed by many guests.

With this approach, ROBINSON SARIGERME PARK is replacing chemical pest control with an animal-based solution – a concrete step that benefits both guests and the club grounds alike.
