Eco Tropical Resorts established the Butterfly Club/Eco Rating for green hotels
interested in assessing and improving their eco policies and practices.
During 2007, many Butterfly Club members documented their eco activities,
using an Eco Questionnaire, developed with Jem Winston from Rosalie
Forest Eco Lodge. Several resort operators urged us to further
develop the Questionnaire to incorporate a rating system indicating “degrees
of green.”
During 2008, we developed an Eco Rating System for resorts to
self assess and rate their policies and practices regarding energy,
water, recycling/waste, land and nature conservation, and community. The
Eco Rating lets lodge owners/managers self rate resorts from 1
to 5 butterflies (with 5 being the highest). To see a copy of the Eco
Rating click Eco Rating.
