“We are incredibly proud of the achievements being made by our NGO and community partners on the ground. Each resort has taken on unique projects based on the local need and is aiming for the greatest measurable impact at that destination. And I welcome all our guests to join us in celebrating these projects and partnerships, which are only made possible by guest visits and ongoing support,” said Jeff Smith, vice president of sustainability, Six Senses.

Six Senses Con Dao in Vietnam created a protected nest area for endangered green sea turtles, resulting in 6,929 hatchlings returning to the ocean. Also in Vietnam, Six Senses Ninh Van Bay is home to critically endangered langur monkeys, with 42 babies arriving in 2022. Brand-wide, Six Senses preserved or restored more than 14.5 miles of local habitat.
