Sustainability & Environmental Policy
At Casa Khnum, sustainability is not an accessory it is the foundation upon which the entire project is conceived, built, and operated. Our commitment to environmental responsibility guides every decision, from material selection and energy management to long-term ecological care. Because Casa Khnum is located in one of Mexico’s most biodiverse coastal regions, we adopt practices designed to preserve its natural beauty while minimizing our ecological footprint.
Our property is fully powered by a high-capacity solar energy system, supported by professional-grade battery storage that guarantees uninterrupted operation even in the event of power outages. This ensures that guests enjoy consistent comfort while reducing dependency on traditional electrical grids. Heating, lighting, ventilation, and essential amenities are optimized to maintain maximum efficiency with minimal environmental impact.
Construction materials are carefully chosen to respect the local environment, prioritizing low-impact processes, long-lasting finishes, and natural elements that align with the climate of Puerto Escondido. Water usage is managed responsibly through efficient systems, filtration, and coastal-adapted landscaping intended to reduce consumption and preserve local resources.
Casa Khnum actively implements eco-friendly practices such as waste separation, reduced-plastic guidelines, responsible cleaning products, and partnerships with local providers who follow ethical and sustainable standards. We are committed to long-term ecological stewardship, continuously improving our operations to protect the region’s natural ecosystem while delivering a luxury experience aligned with environmental consciousness.
