In 2023, Angsana Laguna Phuket was honored with an International Sustainable Awards, recognizing its commitment to a series of sustainable initiatives that set it apart in the world of luxury hospitality. Two such initiatives, the “Phuket Paradise Treatment” and the “No Bins Day” at Angsana Spa & Resort, have garnered widespread attention and praise for their innovative approach to sustainability.

Perfectly situated on the tranquil shores of Bang Tao Bay, with the azure waters of the Andaman Sea as its backdrop, the 5-star Angsana Laguna Phuket is a paradise within an island. With its picturesque views, lush gardens, and an array of indoor and outdoor dining options, this integrated beachfront resort is a haven for travelers seeking the ultimate getaway.

Sustainable Initiative: “No Bins Day”

One of Angsana Laguna Phuket’s noteworthy sustainable initiatives is the “No Bins Day.” Launched in 2023, this project is an innovative and environmentally conscious endeavor aimed at raising awareness about waste reduction and promoting responsible waste management practices within the resort.

On this designated day, the culinary team carefully selects a menu that generates no leftover items, encouraging both guests and associates to be mindful of their consumption habits and make conscious choices to minimize waste. It’s not just a one-time effort; the project is part of a larger global endeavor to address waste-related challenges and build a more sustainable future for generations to come.

What makes this initiative truly special is its potential for impact. By participating in the “No Bins Day” project, associates and guests come together to create a cleaner, greener environment, fostering a culture of sustainability and responsible consumption. The results speak for themselves, with a monthly reduction of 400 kilograms of food waste – an amount that could feed 83 families. Beyond this, every kilogram of food waste saved reduces the emission of over 2.5 kilograms of CO2, a significant contribution to the fight against climate change. By preventing food waste from reaching landfills, the initiative also helps reduce the generation of methane, a greenhouse gas 25 times more potent than CO2.

With a target of reducing at least 80 kilograms of waste on each “No Bins Day,” Angsana Laguna Phuket is setting a remarkable example in the hospitality industry. The initiative is not only innovative but also impactful, actively involving both associates and guests in the sustainability journey.

Sustainable Initiative: “Phuket Paradise Treatment”

Launched in September 2022, the “Phuket Paradise Treatment” is another jewel in Angsana Laguna Phuket’s crown of sustainability. This unique spa experience takes guests on a journey inspired by the beauty of Phuket’s natural attractions.

The treatment features the soothing touch of warm sand, responsibly sourced from eco-friendly locations. The sand is carefully cleaned and returned to nature after each session, ensuring a sustainable approach to this indulgent experience. It’s not just about relaxation; it’s about mindful and responsible relaxation.

What sets this initiative apart is its focus on the entire lifecycle of the materials used. The sand is obtained from nature and returned after use, maintaining the ecological balance. The treatment also incorporates a reusable Pateh fabric pouch that is meticulously sanitized after each use, ensuring high cleanliness and hygiene standards.

To measure the impact and progress of this sustainable treatment, Angsana Laguna Phuket’s Research & Development team collaborates with their staff, following up quarterly and conducting guest satisfaction surveys. This dedication to continuous improvement ensures the treatment remains effective and eco-conscious.

Guests who opt for the “Phuket Paradise Treatment” not only enjoy a unique and relaxing experience but actively contribute to waste reduction and environmental preservation. The initiative showcases the power of sustainable practices in the spa industry.

Both the “No Bins Day” and the “Phuket Paradise Treatment” initiatives play pivotal roles in promoting the idea of sustainability and supporting the dissemination of sustainability knowledge.
