In 2025, the hospitality industry is set to lead a transformative shift: the rise of regenerative hotels. These properties go beyond traditional sustainability, committing to regenerate and enrich the natural and social environments where they operate. Combining luxury, innovation, and environmental responsibility, they not only deliver unique experiences but also ensure superior returns on investment (ROI). According to the Sustainable Tourism Report by the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), 73% of global travelers prefer to stay in hotels with sustainable and regenerative practices.


This list is based on REGENERA LUXURY criteria:

  • Regenerative Focus: Properties that restore and enhance ecosystems, communities, and destinations.
  • Eco-Luxury: Sophisticated designs using eco-friendly materials and renewable energy.
  • Certifications with Shared Values: Recognized and audited by entities such as FORBES, LEED, UNWTO, B.CORP, GSTC, BREEAM, WTTC, UNESCO, World Sustainable Hospitality Alliance, or Rainforest Alliance.
  • Support for Local Economies: Promoting circular economies through collaborations with nearby communities.
  • Innovative Design: Structures that minimize environmental impact and maximize cultural integration.
