Bahia Principe Hotels & Resorts Encourages Eco-Conscious Practices Among Guests

Miami, FL  – Bahia Principe Hotels & Resorts, a leader in all-inclusive travel, is redefining sustainable tourism across its properties in Mexico, Jamaica, and the Dominican Republic. Through its “We Are Ecocentric” movement, the brand invites travelers with a eco-conscious mindset, to engage in meaningful experiences that support conservation and promote a sustainable future. The brand’s environmental efforts are spearheaded by the Eco-Bahia Foundation, established in Mexico in 1999 and expanded to the Dominican Republic in 2023. Bahia Principe’s goal is to conserve natural resources, protect marine ecosystems, and restore endangered species’ habitats. The foundation implements initiatives in coral reef conservation, wildlife protection, and environmental education.

“Our goal is to offer a tourism model based on responsibility and sustainability. With the Eco-Bahia Foundation, we hope to inspire change by promoting the protection of natural resources in all the destinations where we operate,” said Grupo Piñero’s Chief Sustainability Officer, Isabel Piñero.

Since its inception, the Eco-Bahia Foundation has released over 110,000 sea turtle hatchlings and managed more than 1,000 wildlife recovery cases. In the Dominican Republic, the foundation has launched significant projects, including the restoration of the whale lookout at Punta Balandra and the distribution of waste separation containers to local schools as part of the “Biodiverse Samaná” initiative.
