Eco-Conscious Design & Energy
The resort’s buildings are LEED-certified and constructed using sustainable materials, maximising natural light and ventilation to reduce the need for artificial lighting and cooling. Advanced energy systems, sensor lighting, and efficient climate control help to minimise energy consumption and reduce CO₂ emissions, all while maintaining comfort for every guest.
Water, Dining & Waste
Water is treated with the utmost care through recycling, low-flow systems, and state-of-the-art lagoon treatment that returns water safely to nature. Dining at the resort is both delicious and responsible, with 90% locally sourced ingredients, plant-based menus, and mindful initiatives such as the weekly No Bin Day. Single-use plastics have been replaced with biodegradable alternatives, and the resort operates largely paperless through digital communication and documentation — making every action count towards a greener future.
Nature, Community & Recognition
Sustainability extends beyond the resort, offering guests the opportunity to participate in mangrove planting, beach clean-ups, and community education programmes that inspire environmental stewardship. Zulal Wellness Resort also supports global initiatives such as UN SDG 14 and has earned the Travelife Gold Certification, establishing itself as a leader in sustainable hospitality in Qatar.
