Policies & Initiatives

Taking a peek outside your room whether you are visiting an Achatis apartment, you cannot miss the strong ties with history and nature. Acknowledging this blessing, it is hard for us not to want to offer optimum sustainability practices. Protection of the surrounding environment is an indisputable principle for all our apartments, committing ourselves to giving back both to local communities as well as the environment where we all live and operate in.

 

Striving to reduce our environmental footprint, we have adopted various environmental initiatives such as minimizing waste as well as recycling of water and energy, forming a coherent sustainability policy. Enhancing our commitment to becoming environmentally responsible, we are continually upgrading our systems, while measuring our performance annually.

Our aim is to create an unforgettable experience for our guests while taking our social and environmental responsibilities very seriously.

 

Situated 23km west of Chania, Achatis is well positioned in one of the few places in Crete that resiliently safeguard their “untouched” beauty, the village of Kolymvari at the southern end of Rodopou peninsula. What’s even more, the peninsula has been declared a Natura 2000 environmentally protected area.

 

Being part of such a pure and untouched environment, we are constantly striving to be at the forefront of sustainability best practice, doing our utmost to reduce our environmental footprint as much as possible.
