The Mushara Collection operates with a strong commitment to sustainability, conservation and social responsibility, prioritising the well-being of its staff and the environment. Initiatives are aimed at empowering employees through educational programs and fostering sustainable travel practices. At Villa Mushara, waste is meticulously managed: recycling bins are placed throughout the property, paper and plastic are incinerated and glass and metal are securely stored on-site. Mushara avoids sending waste to poorly managed landfills in nearby towns, instead implementing eco-friendly disposal methods. Water is conserved with a natural filtration process using French drains, allowing treated wastewater to safely re-enter the environment. The Mushara Collection also embraces solar energy to reduce its carbon footprint, powering up to 70% of its needs through solar grids and using energy-efficient lighting and timed water heaters. Sustainable sourcing is a priority, with vegetables and herbs either grown on-site or sourced locally along with fresh fruit juices, jams and other services. Conservation efforts extend across Mushara’s reserves with the goal of minimising environmental impact while maximising resource efficiency. Their kitchen waste is composted to enrich soil for the gardens, which supply much of the collection’s produce. Across all lodges, the Mushara Collection continuously strives to reduce its environmental footprint while enhancing its natural surroundings.
