Kinbi Private Villa
Nestled in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of Baa Atoll, we are committed to preserving the pristine beauty of the Maldives for future generations. Experience luxury that doesn't compromise our planet.
Our Commitment to a Sustainable Maldives
At Kinbi, we are deeply committed to preserving the natural beauty of our island (Goidhoo) for generations to come. We believe in responsible tourism that respects our fragile ecosystem and supports our local community. Our sustainability initiatives are at the core of our operations, ensuring that your stay with us contributes to a healthier planet.
Waste Reduction: Protecting Our Oceans
We are dedicated to minimizing our environmental footprint by reducing waste and preventing pollution of our pristine marine environment. We have eliminated single-use plastics including water bottles, straws, and food packaging. Organic waste is composted on-site, while we maintain comprehensive recycling programs in partnership with local facilities.
Environmental Stewardship
We actively engage in programs that protect and enhance our natural surroundings. We provide bicycles and promote non-motorized water sports for eco-friendly exploration. Our linen and towel reuse program conserves water and energy by changing them every third day unless requested otherwise.
Energy and Water Conservation
In our remote island location, we recognize the importance of conserving precious resources. We implement ground and rainwater harvesting for landscape irrigation, use energy-saving LED lighting, and motion sensors throughout the property to reduce consumption.
Sustainable Cuisine
We offer culinary experiences that are both delicious and sustainable. Fresh seafood is sourced from local fishermen, fruits and vegetables from Goidhoo or nearby islands. Our unique "Hook to Cook" experience lets guests fish with locals and have their catch prepared for authentic Maldivian dining.
Community Engagement
We are proud to support the local Maldivian community through educational programs, community clean-up events, and curated excursions to nearby islands. These initiatives provide guests authentic cultural experiences while supporting local businesses.
Sustainable Purchasing
Our commitment extends to purchasing decisions. We prioritize eco-certified products, source amenities and decor from local Maldivian artisans, and work with suppliers to reduce packaging and eliminate single-use plastic bags.
