Surf the Wave of Change with Iberostar Hotels & Resorts
If you love paradise as much as we do, you want to keep it as beautiful as it is today for many vacations to come. Sustainable tourism is the hottest trend in all inclusive vacations (with no expiry date in sight), as many hotels and resorts make a conscious effort to protect the environment around them. A favourite for all inclusive getaways, Iberostar Hotels & Resorts leads the change, proving that responsible tourism and luxury vacation experiences can coexist, and well. Check out how Iberostar continues to come out on top plus the resorts you’ll want to stay at – and feel good about!
Keeps our oceans blue and beautiful
We all love sun and sand getaways, but a growing population and increased tourism is putting ever growing pressure on coastal areas. Through Wave of Change, Iberostar Hotels & Resorts will invest in the discovery, protection and restoration of the seagrasses, coral reefs, mangroves and other ecosystems in the destinations you love to visit. They’ll also collaborate with an internal team of researchers, NGOs and universities to keep paradise beautiful and healthy because when nature thrives, so do we.
Where to stay
No destination captures the majesty of eco tourism quite like the Dominican Republic and its natural beauty is on full display at Coral Level at Iberostar Selection Bavaro, featuring a coral laboratory used to stud the resilience of these coastal organisms in the face of climate change. This hotel features a sprawling pool complex overlooking the deep blue with convenient poolside wait service so your drinks are as fresh as the view. Plus, you can explore the waters worth protecting during the resort’s introductory scuba lessons diving beneath the waves, or take it easy with some fun, non-motorized water sports.
