We are proud to unveil our new CSR brand identity: We Care
We Care brings together all the commitments and values we uphold throughout the year:
Our logo features a coral branch and a tropical monstera leaf, which come together to form a heart, to showcase our initiatives to protect nature and the ocean, two elements deeply rooted in Polynesian culture. The symbol emits the warmth of the Polynesian people, beating for their fenua. The heart is also a symbol that we care about the well-being of our staff and the local community.
A single message: Protection, respect and commitment
WE CARE FOR ENVIRONMENT
We encourage the smart management of our resources within our infrastructures and through waste reduction training for our teams.
Our Actions facing climate change
We have installed pressure reducers on showerheads to optimize water consumption.
We have a solar farm that provides the hotel with green electricity.
We prioritize the use of eco-friendly appliances, thus contributing to significant energy savings.
We incorporate passive solar energy in the design and renovations of the hotel to reduce our energy consumption by harnessing natural light and solar heat.
Our Actions regarding waste management
We use cardboard straws in our bars and restaurants to reduce the amount of plastic waste in our environment.
We are progressively installing soap dispensers instead of single-use items.
We have implemented a waste management plan to promote sorting within the property and, therefore, recycling. This management includes the placement of recycling bins throughout the hotel, staff training on waste sorting, and the recycling of ink cartridges.
We regularly organize lagoon cleanups to preserve the beauty of our beaches and protect marine life.
We raise awareness among our teams about digital pollution through communications on best practices.
WE CARE FOR NATURE AND CULTURE
We take action to promote the biodiversity of our fenua and to enhance our cultural heritage by sharing our Polynesian traditions.
Our Actions regarding the preservation of the biodiversity
We minimize noise and light emissions related to the property’s operations that could affect wildlife and flora.
We do not use any pesticides within the hotel.
Our Actions to celebrate Polynesian cultural heritage
We offer a Polynesian buffet every week showcasing local products and dishes.
We organize Polynesian wedding ceremonies for those wishing to unite according to local tradition.
We highlight Polynesian culture through the uniforms worn by all employees.
WE CARE FOR PEOPLE
We are committed to the well-being of our staff, and contribute to the local community: schools, NGOs and associations.
The EarthCheck Certification
EarthCheck is an environmental benchmarking and certification program designed for all stakeholders in the tourism and hospitality industry who want to engage in sustainable development initiatives.
The Maitai Polynesia Bora Bora hotel has been a member of this certification for many years. It has achieved the highest EarthCheck accreditation level, Platinum. Very few establishments worldwide have reached this level.
To display this label, the company must undergo an initial consulting phase to define and evaluate its environmental policy and must implement a number of actions in different areas that align with our WE CARE strategy:
- Implementation of a sustainable development policy
- Management of water, paper, and energy consumption
- Waste management
- Reduction or elimination of pesticides and cleaning and hygiene chemicals products
- Commitment to local communities
