The Vila Vita Parc Resort & Herdade dos Grous are 'greener' than ever. VILA VITA Parc Resort & Spa was distinguished once again for its environmental and energy saving practices. Earning a new quality certification from TÜV Rheinland, awarding both the resort and its vineyard Herdade dos Grous, its seal of quality.
The inspection at VILA VITA Parc left no doubts with the auditors: the resort is an “Eco-Hotel” and complies with environmental issues and energy reduction schemes. Yet, this eco-friendlylabel does not compromise on the conservation of resources when offering first-rate accommodation, facilities and services to its guests. This distinction is based on international standards such as ISO 14001, Health, Food & Safety in the workplace and the concept of the 3R’s (re-use, reduce e recycle). Both the resort (including all its kitchens and food and beverage outlets) and Herdade de Grous, where the wines of the same name are produced and consumed at the resort, were also awarded the ‘Food Safety’ certification.
This is not the first time that VILA VITA Parc’s environmental awareness is recognized: last April, the Boa Cama Boa Mesa guide, published by national newspaper Expresso, in a partnership with Sociedade Ponto Verde, granted the resort the Boa Cama Sustainability first prize, recognizing aspects such as rational water consumption, energy saving and residue management.
The resort has also earned, on several occasions Travelife´s Gold status and TUI´s Environmental Champion award.
VILA VITA Parc and Herdade dos Grous continue to invest heavily in technology and methods to offer sustainable and balanced products and services.
Set on a prime cliff top location within 54 acres of lush subtropical gardens, VILA VITA Parc offers an array of accommodation options, including private villas with spectacular views over the ocean. With 9 restaurants and 7 bars onsite, one of which is the 2 Michelin starred Ocean restaurant, there is plenty of choice for everyone.
