By selecting one of these eco-properties, our customers will have a direct positive impact on their chosen destination, making a conscious choice towards a greener and more sustainable way of travelling. 

How we Selected the Properties

Wayfairer's Responsible Travel Executive meticulously established the Eco by Wayfairer accommodation category, ensuring properties met stringent criteria for environmental and social responsibility. A comprehensive survey, divided into three categories—Management and Efficiency, Conservation and Preservation, and Social and Community Impact—was crafted. Properties were required to outline reduction strategies for carbon, water, energy, and waste, with mandates for plans in all areas to qualify as eco-friendly. The properties were then selected based on their responses and chosen as the flagship eco-properties in Wayfairer's Kenya portfolio.
