Here at The Sebel Noosa we are committed to embedding sustainability into every facet of our daily operations. We recognise that sustainability is an ongoing journey and are continually striving to reduce our carbon footprint wherever possible. Below are some of the initiatives we have implemented to date.
We are delighted to share our ongoing commitment to reducing single-use plastics in our guest rooms. As part of this initiative, we have made a significant decision to remove single-use dry amenities, taking a bold step towards a plastic-free environment.
We understand the importance of preserving our planet for future generations. By removing single-use plastic amenities such as toothbrushes, combs, and shower caps from our guest rooms, we are significantly reducing our environmental footprint. Instead, guests can request dry amenities by calling room service or visiting our friendly team at reception.
As part of our ongoing efforts, we have made the proactive decision to move to large format amenities, replacing our single-use plastic common amenities with eco-friendly pump dispensers throughout the hotel. By eliminating single-use plastic bottles, we are significantly reducing the amount of waste generated by our operations. This commitment aligns with our dedication to environmental stewardship and reflects our ongoing efforts to improve sustainability in all aspects of our hotel.
At The Sebel Noosa, we are committed to reducing wastage and promoting sustainable practices across our snack and beverage outlets. We understand the importance of minimising our environmental impact while delivering exceptional experiences to our guests.
Sebel Noosa does not have an onsite restaurant, however we do provide our guests with beverage services, as well as a small snack bar offering at reception.
At The Sebel Noosa, all hotel waste is separated into co-mingle, cardboard, cans/bottles and general waste, minimising our impact on landfill. In addition, we have taken a number of steps to further reduce water and embrace a circular system.
We are committed to maintaining strong connections with our local community and give back wherever possible. As previously mentioned, our snack offerings and bath care options sold at reception, are all sourced from local suppliers. It is extremely important to us to support our local community, as well as sourcing Australian made products.
The Sebel Noosa acknowledges the ongoing connections to the traditional custodians of our land, the Kabi Kabi people. We pay our respects to the Elders, past, present and emerging.
Every evening at 7pm, outside the Visitor Information Centre on Hastings Street, there's a welcome to country virtual audio-visual experience held to acknowledge and celebrate the Kabi Kabi people's connection to Noosa, which we encourage all guests to experience.
At The Sebel Noosa, we strive to accommodate the diverse needs of all our guests. While we do not currently have any dedicated accessible rooms, our open-plan apartments are designed with spacious layouts to provide ease of movement and comfort for all guests.
Each of our six buildings have elevator access, and our reception area is accessible from Hastings Street via elevator as well. These elevators have recently been upgraded to display vital information and include voice notification to cater for guests with hearing or vision impairments. In addition, assistance animals are always welcome.
