An example of eco-friendly accommodation awarded a prestigious certificate
In the beautiful landscape of the Liptov region, in the village of Demänová, there is a family-run resort that stands out for its ecological philosophy and sustainable practices. This unique project was created in the mind of the owner, who wanted to create a place where the whole family, including children, will feel at home. Demänová Resort offers relaxation and fun for all visitors – from families with children, to couples and larger groups of friends.
One of the main characteristics of the resort is its sensitive location and construction. It is situated in a wide meadow, outside the protected forests of the Demänovská valley, which has minimised interference with nature. Not a single tree was cut down during construction; on the contrary, over a thousand trees were planted, including pine, fir, fruit trees and shrubs, as well as herb beds. As a result, guests can soon expect to taste the first fruits from these trees.
Demänová The resort prides itself on its use of natural materials, especially wood. All the buildings in the resort are wooden houses with an ecological certificate. Ecological principles are also followed in day-to-day operations – from the use of eco-friendly toilet paper, which saves thousands of waste cartons, to recycling waste and the use of eco-friendly cleaning products. Towels are changed after three nights, which in turn saves water.
The restaurants and bakery use a large amount of ingredients from local suppliers and socially responsible entrepreneurs, which supports the local economy and reduces the ecological footprint. In addition, the resort is not only eco-friendly but also pet-friendly, so even four-legged pets are welcome and have eco dog toilets prepared.
A significant part of the resort’s success is its recent award. Demänová Resort has been awarded the prestigious ESG certificate with an A rating, awarded by the renowned CRIF company. This certificate confirms the resort’s excellent level of sustainability and environmental responsibility, which increases the resort’s confidence and prestige. The certificate is based on a methodology that meets international standards.
In addition, you will find not only comfortable accommodation, but also a variety of attractions on site – from the SKI centre, to the Aqua FUN summer water park, to the children’s playground full of fun. Visitors can visit the contact MiniZOO, fitness and wellness centre, all within a 10-minute walk.
