Green Key is the world's leading eco-label for tourism

Our accommodation is a responsible choice!

You can sleep in peace - our accommodation options in the most beautiful nature destinations in Southern Finland are all Green Key -certified. Our accommodations allow you to relax, recharge yourself and enjoy your own peace and quiet in the middle of the forest. Nature plays the main role in your accommodation experience, which we are sure each of us can appreciate. It is important to us that we provide these services in a sustainable way - by developing our business.

Green Key - sustainable tourism

Green Key offers a sustainability toolkit

By following the Green Key criteria, we can ensure that the services we provide do not overburden our environment. To be certified, we must ensure that our operations meet the mandatory basic criteria year after year. In order to prove that we are developing a responsible business, we need to select additional points criteria each year.

Each year, we review our own sustainability measures with a Green Key representative and a Green Key accredited jury decides on the further certification based on the documentation we submit.

Comprehensive set of criteria

Green Key's criteria are comprehensive and cover a wide range of business activities. They have enabled us to plan our sustainability work in a more concrete way, to involve our staff and to communicate these issues better to our customers and partners!

  • Natura Viva has a designated environmental officer who is responsible for sustainability measures and reporting.
