Salt-spray hair, sand between toes, and migratory birds at sunset… is a dreamy eco-luxe getaway just 2 hours from Dubai. 💚

What made us fall in love was its amazing organic farm led by the impressive .ameer . Spread across 4,000sqm, it grows around 30 different fruits, vegetables and herbs, which, in just under two years, is now supplying 50% of the produce used in the resort’s restaurants! Honey from the on-site hives, upcycled coconut-shell borders (and Christmas trees!), natural composting all align with their ‘nothing wasted’ philosophy. 🥬🐝

Guests can join the movement too: for 10 rials, guests can plant a frankincense tree and leave their name on a plaque, helping restore the region’s Boswellia forests. 🌱

From breakfast views where the pool meets the sea, to evenings under the stars with farm grown frankincense cocktails in hand, this is conscious travel 🌴

Thank you for being a super host 💫

When David Attenborough says something, we should probably listen.

The livestock industry contributes 15–17% of global greenhouse-gas emissions. Studies show that people following a plant-based diet reduce their emissions by around 30%

You don’t have to eliminate meat 100% but eating less - even just a few days a week - can dramatically reduce your footprint. 🌱Food for thought given is just around the corner 💚

A rare win for nature in Bali 🌺

The controversial 182-metre glass elevator built into the iconic cliffs of Kelingking Beach is now being dismantled following public outcry over its environmental impact.

The project — almost 75% complete — drew fierce criticism for disrupting the natural landscape, blocking sacred coastal views, and proceeding despite questions over permits and cultural protection.

Bali’s governor has now ordered its removal to safeguard the island’s biodiversity, heritage, and the integrity of one of the world’s most photographed coastlines.

A reminder that when communities speak up for the environment, change is possible. 💚

Severe flooding in Sri Lanka has already claimed around 500 lives with hundreds more missing and more than a million people affected.

This elephant is a stark reminder that wildlife faces the same climate extremes we do, yet without the warnings or emergencies services.

📍Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
📈 Extreme rainfall events are increasing due to climate change, pushing communities and ecosystems to breaking point.

🤝 Those on the frontlines — humans and animals alike — deserve a safer, more resilient future.

If you’d like to help, consider supporting reputable organisations on the ground providing rescue, relief and long-term habitat protection in Sri Lanka.
