What Is Sequestered Ecotourism?

As we begin the age of global citizenship, it is imperative to look at the world from a wholistic perspective. While the global population has certainly taken to this idea quickly enough as it pertains to technology and shipped goods, it has been admittedly slow to see regeneration as an ‘us’ problem. 

That it not to say that there aren’t good, solid initiatives underway. There have been many campaigns for tree planting, ocean cleanups, and clean water initiatives across various social media platforms over the last decade. There are tools in place to track and mitigate carbon footprints. There have also been both private and influencer driven projects, and the global population has become incredibly attuned to aiding each other in times of need surrounding global crisis. The fact remains that after having come together to ‘do good,’ the general population will still choose to book a vacation that likely negates the positive environmental footprint they were initially trying to generate. 

This isn’t so surprising, due in part to the fact that people are creatures of habit and comfort (especially when it comes to something as expensive and infrequent as a vacation). But it is also in large part due to the fact that even if a hotel, plane ticket, or vacation package has a good sustainability rating by today’s standards, none of them were actually designed to be ecologically green. 

Sequestered Ecotourism, in contrast, has been carefully designed over the last two years to take responsibility for every sustainable detail and every circular system within the hotel’s borders in order to achieve net zero by opening. Ambitiously, this is not just in relation to the environmental stressed areas the company has pledged to revitalize, but local people in the surrounding areas have also come into the fold of the company’s wholistic approach. 

As a pioneer in the field of ecotourism on such a large scale, Sequestered Ecotourism is the first multinational cooperation to be exclusively focused on building a better and more beautiful environment in conjunction with the amenities any five-star hotel guest would come to expect. 

Redefining Hospitality

The soul of Sequestered Ecotourism is regeneration and restoration. A lofty goal for a hospitality company at first glace, but a necessary step towards global sustainability as we move towards the middle of the twenty-first century. With the new awareness of our global citizenship, companies ought to have goals compatible with, but by no means exclusive to, profit driven capitalism. 

Sequestered Ecotourism has more than delivered on this point. Early on in its inception, the company realized that in order to create a model of travel that met five-star standards and that was environmentally responsible, it would have to realize the integration of two concepts that are rarely placed together: Luxury and sustainability. 

And, if you think about it, why would they be placed together? 

When ‘luxury’ comes to mind, you might imagine excess, extravagance, and comfort beyond measure at the convenience of the paying customer, while sustainability brings to mind thrifting, unheated showers, and (shudder) compost toilets. Both options have their place in the world - five-star hotels exist, as do ecolodges with various basic amenities. But like any worthy van diagram would point out, both of these types of hotels are ignoring the middle. 

Sequestered Ecotourism is the first hospitality company to understand that luxury and sustainability are not only compatible but are mutually beneficial. The tether between the two sides is shorter than it might first appear. 

Take for example the purpose of both luxury hospitality and environmental sustainability. Both are supposed to be restorative, although one is geared towards people and the other towards the environment. By combining the efforts and creating a hotel experience that caters to both the personal restoration and tranquility of guests, and the restoration of the environment around the hotel, Sequestered Ecotourism is bringing the hospitality industry into the future. 

The Future of Tourism

It would be naïve to think that Sequestered Ecotourism is the only company going into ecotourism. As suggested by the UN, ecotourism is the fastest growing section of the tourism industry. However, while established hospitality companies previously sought to place hotels in foreign countries that all looked the same and had the ‘brand’ of the hotel chain, Sequestered Ecotourism is dedicated to working with local people and cultures to celebrate the differences between people while allowing guests to experience a luxurious and relaxing stay. Additionally, Sequestered Ecotourism does not have the impediment of having to arduously (and expensively) upgrade established hotels in order to meet green technological and environmental criteria. 

Sequestered Ecotourism is a brand new wholistic hotel company that aims to redefine how people travel in the 21st century; because luxury doesn’t have to mean excess, and sustainability doesn’t have to diminish a rich and fulfilling travel experience. With locations selected all over the world, Sequestered Ecotourism promises to be a company and hotel to watch, not only because it will be the first of its kind to merge five-star amenities with a fully green concept, but because it promises to be a company with a soul.
