Earth Day may be several months away, but that doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate it on other days like your holidays. One way of celebrating Mother Earth while on vacation is through staying at an eco-friendly resort like Natura Vista.
An Environmentally-sustainable Sanctuary
Once a resthouse by a Boholano family, Natura Vista is an L-shaped environmentally-sustainable sanctuary located at G. Hornijas St. San Pedro, Barangay Bingag, Dauis Panglao Island, Bohol. It is right beside Panglao Island Nature Resort & Spa and a walking distance to the public beach, where you can meet and engage with the locals. The resort is also close to the famous Hinagdanan cave.
Natura Vista is proud to call itself green. They offer hearty meals prepared using organic ingredients that are mostly picked from their neighbor’s garden, rooms built using natural materials and partly powered by solar energy, interior and outdoor decors made from recycled products and a waste management system. It’s not surprising that Natura Vista has achieved tremendous awards and certifications from different organizations.
