Eco lodge

For hotels & tour operators

Interested in listing with us?

What we are looking for

Small or large, certified or not.

Want to be listed? We showcase the best responsible hotels and tour operators. This definitely doesn't mean you have to be big or certified. In fact, we love to champion small-scale community-run initiatives and places to stay.

We don't follow any strict criteria. Rather, we want to see responsible or, preferably, regenerative and positive tourism practices built into your operations. Find out more here.

Our standards

Rooted in the Cape Town Declaration.

We broadly use the Cape Town's Declaration definition of Responsible Tourism to review entries. As a minimum, Responsible Tourism should:

  • minimise negative economic, environmental and social impacts;
  • generate greater economic benefits for local people and enhance the well-being of host communities, improve working conditions and access to the industry;
  • involve local people in decisions that affect their lives and life changes;
  • make positive contributions to the conservation of natural and cultural heritage, to the maintenance of the world's diversity.

Get in touch

Let's have a chat.

We'd love to hear about what you are doing and how you are getting there. Ultimately, we also want to be a platform to inspire others in the industry to learn from each other and pick up ideas to take forward.

Drop us an email with your details and web address, and we'll take it from there.

Costs

Basic listings are free.

Right now all our basic listings are free. We'll be scaling up later in 2026 and bigger marketing packages will be available. Our prices are dependent on your scale and location.
