Taj Exotica Resort & Spa Concludes Environment Day Celebrations
Taj Exotica Resort & Spa has concluded a series of activities scheduled from 25th May to 05th June 2022.
Community activities at the resort included poster-making, sand art and photography and video teaser competitions themed around ‘Only One Earth’. As part of the celebrations, all department staff participated enthusiastically in three ‘clean and green’ initiatives: Hulhumale park cleaning drive, lagoon cleaning and ‘my green corner’ (individual vegetable/flower garden planted and nurtured by staff).
“While we conduct plantation drives each year, our holistic endeavour this time is aligned with our unified approach under ‘Paathya’ – which aims to plant more than a hundred thousand saplings across all IHCL hotels – as a collective step towards a better tomorrow,” says Samrat Datta, general manager.
A significant focus of the ten-day celebrations was the resort’s unwavering commitment to protecting and preserving its exquisite coral reef. The 2014 ‘Adopt a Coral Line’ program continues to invite guests to restore the beauty of the ocean by assisting marine experts in planting broken coral fragments in the Coral line nursery.
