El Silencio Lodge and Spa Three Bedroom VillaBeyond Green has announced the addition of two new member hotels, El Silencio Lodge & Spa in Costa Rica and Hotel Món Sant Benet in Spain, to its global portfolio. This expansion highlights the brand's commitment to sustainable travel, with the portfolio now covering 22 countries.
El Silencio Lodge & Spa, located in Costa Rica's central highlands, is surrounded by protected wildlife areas and a cloud forest. The lodge operates on renewable hydroelectric energy and engages in sustainable practices such as recycling cooking oil into biodiesel and using biodegradable materials. It supports the local community by funding school infrastructure and purchasing goods locally. Guests can enjoy wellness activities and farm-to-table dining experiences.
In Spain, Hotel Món Sant Benet is set in a riverside forest near Barcelona, incorporating the historic Monastery of Sant Benet de Bages. Owned by the Catalunya La Pedrera Foundation, the hotel reinvests profits into social and environmental initiatives. It uses solar panels and a hydroelectric turbine to supply over 70% of its energy, significantly reducing CO₂ emissions. The hotel offers diverse gastronomic experiences and promotes sustainable travel through electric vehicle charging stations.
Philipp Weghmann, President of Beyond Green, stated, “El Silencio Lodge & Spa and Hotel Món Sant Benet each reflect a deep connection to place, expressed through the landscapes they protect, the heritage they preserve and the communities they support.”
Both hotels are part of the I Prefer Hotel Rewards programme, offering benefits to travellers worldwide. This strategic expansion by Beyond Green underscores its dedication to fostering sustainable travel and community empowerment.
