Sustainability

We strive for sustainability in everything we do

Jumby Bay Island sets a benchmark for sustainability in the Caribbean through a diverse array of innovative and impactful initiatives. Every day offers an opportunity to create meaningful experiences for visitors and to leave our environment better than we found it.

Central to its environmental stewardship is energy conservation, characterized by rigorous monitoring and reduction strategies, supplemented by a robust solar energy program aiming to supply up to 70% of the island’s energy needs.

Jumby Bay Island is also a sanctuary for the critically endangered hawksbill sea turtle, supported by dedicated conservation efforts. From June to November each year, a project team meticulously monitors and records nesting activities, tagging each turtle to track their progress.

Together with several other initiatives, these efforts underscore Jumby Bay Island's commitment to preserving its natural beauty and fostering a sustainable future.

At Oetker Collection, we do understand that anything which is not sustainable cannot sustain. We therefore strive for sustainability in everything we do. We are committed to preserving the local environments and communities where we are present around the globe.

We have instituted a comprehensive strategy and created sustainability teams at each of our Masterpiece Hotels to carry out our objectives. Oetker Collection is proud to adhere to the UN Global Compact framework for ensuring a safe and guaranteed future for all and support its 10 principles.

Transitioning towards solar energy results in reduce costs for the island, as KWH would come down.
