Attitude hotels have switched to greener energy systems in their hotels. Solar water heaters and outdoor lighting has been introduced across the hotels. AC door switches make sure that the air conditioner automatically turns off if the doors open, and all the light bulbs in the rooms and common areas are LED bulbs.
Attitude created the Marine Discovery Centre aiming to inform and act together. The Centre is located at Lagoon Attitude hotel and has two full-time scientists who train and educate the local population, fishermen, and guests who visit. They help everyone to understand the beautiful environment and how to help protect it. An underwater trail was created that highlights the beauty of the seabed without damaging it. The trail educates you about the fragile ecosystem.
