Veekends.com is a platform for all ecologically run properties in the world. The big idea is to create, support and enable eco friendly resort owners to run eco hotels and resorts that contribute positively to the environment and local communities. The idea began in 2018 when the founders started working with the UN to develop sustainable hospitality standards for small, sustainable boutique hotels. Veekends.com takes it one step further by dynamically mapping the ecological footprint of any property in the world, rate and certify them as sustainable hotels.
Every person who is concerned with environmental, animal and planetary conservation, aspires to live as sustainably as possible. To fulfil consumption requirements and achieve climate goals, travel industries have made tremendous strides to be more ecologically mindful of the world and to promote green vacation destinations.
The desire to lose oneself and reconnect with nature, locals or even just a slower lifestyle is becoming ever so strong. And as the uncertainty with Covid continues, people look for small hamlets, forgotten places and eco friendly destinations to spend their Veekends. We know that each traveler is unique and so here are some of the profiles recommended to get a sustainable travel experience.
