Sustainability
Protecting The Environment
at Our Florida Eco Resort & Surrounding Waters
Mote Marine Partnership
Our collaboration with Mote Marine deepens as we expand reef restoration efforts just beyond our shores in Newfound Harbor. Guests will have the rare opportunity to meet the scientists, witness coral cultivation firsthand and even sponsor coral throughout its journey of renewal.
Paradise with a Purpose
Within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, Looe Key Reef is a wildlife refuge, and part of the third largest living coral reef in the world. Our luxury eco resort has long supported and partnered with Mote Marine Labs in their valiant reef restoration efforts.
For that reason, we have curated a package that includes:
• Daily waterfront breakfast for two
• One day of Snorkeling Looe Key Reef for two
• Two hats celebrating our efforts together
• One-time donation to MOTE Marine Labs of $500
Conch Republic Marine Army
Since 2017, we have proudly supported the Conch Republic Marine Army in restoring Florida Keys mangroves post-Hurricane Irma. Through our dockage, staff support and donations, CRMA volunteers have removed over 422,000 pounds of debris, helping to preserve the crystal-clear waters that define our island paradise.
Reef Relief
We’re honored to support Reef Relief, a leader in Florida Keys marine conservation since 1986. From mooring buoy installations to award-winning youth education, they have reached over 15,500 students and removed 320,000 pounds of marine debris — protecting local waters through hands-on stewardship and community-driven action.
Island Dolphin Care
Island Dolphin Care creates transformative experiences for veterans and individuals with special needs through dolphin-assisted therapy. We are honored to support their mission, which nurtures both human potential and dolphin well-being, fostering deeper understanding, compassion and care for marine life.
Our SpaTerre
At SpaTerre, every treatment is elevated with organic products sourced from around the world, offering guests a luxurious, naturally inspired escape that nurtures body, mind and spirit. Indulge in transcendent body rituals, meditative beach yoga and wellness rooted in nature’s rhythm.
Restoration of Sea Grasses
After Hurricane Irma, our Florida eco resort committed to restoring the island’s natural beauty — replanting native sea grasses along the shore and placing underwater buoys to protect the surrounding marine ecosystem.
A Strawless Escape
In support of our island’s vibrant marine and wildlife habitats, plastic straws are not used. Guests may request biodegradable options, thoughtfully chosen to help reduce sea debris and environmental impact at our luxury eco resort and surrounding waters.
Lighting & HVAC
During the post–Hurricane Irma restoration, we enhanced all island structures with high-efficiency HVAC systems. Interior and landscape lighting were also upgraded to LED, blending environmental responsibility with refined design.
Eco Landscaping / Filtration Plant
Preserving paradise begins beneath the surface. Our advanced SBR filtration system recycles greywater into clean irrigation, sustaining Little Palm Island’s lush landscape, while conserving hundreds of thousands of gallons of water annually.
Capital One Sustainable Travel Partner
