Environmentally Conscious

Built into rock formations and designed with green roofs and biophilic walls, the resort is home to many of Turkey's botanic species (nature's aromatherapy of olive, cypress, oleander, sage and thyme). As shared custodians of this extraordinary setting, the resort carefully conserves the raw beauty of secluded beaches, dramatic landscape and local heritage. The resort’s organic farms and gardens play an important role in Eat With Six Senses approach. Through growing much of their own fruit and vegetables on-site, you can be ensureed to enjoy fresh, whole, seasonal, and high-quality food that's grown-in, not flown-in. With compost machine in theresort, they utilize microbes to compost food waste in 24 hours, producing a nutrient-rich soil amendment to be used in our organic garden. The glass crusher in kitchens enables to reduce the volume occupied by glass bottles by up to 80 percent. Treated waste water is reused for landscaping irrigation. Additionally, the hotel is surrounded by a number of local gardens, vineyards and farms from which can responsibly source the freshest vegetables, fruit and herbs, reducing impacts such as packaging and transportation. Resort filters and bottle their own still and sparkling water reducing use of plastic. Younger guests are invited to learn about upcycling and recycling as well as gardening.

Lionfish project

Increasing seawater temperature with the effect of climate change makes the Mediterranean Basin more livable day by day for species belonging to different ecosystems such as the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. Transported by the Strait of Gibraltar, the Suez Canal and the ballast waters of ships, these new fish quickly adapt and multiply in unfamiliar seas, while posing threats to native fish species and the small-scale fisheries economy. Lionfish, pintail coral, soldier fish, long-spined sea urchin are species that have begun to live and spread rapidly in surounding seas in the last few years. Mediterranean Conservation Society has been working to monitor new fish species, also called invasive, since 2013 and applies the Sea Protection System in areas closed to fishing. Six Senses Kaplankaya contributes to the Lionfish project, which started with resort chefs, to include new edible fish species on the tables in order to minimize the effects of climate change.
