Sustainability at Mantra Mooloolaba Beach

Here at Mantra Mooloolaba Beach, we are committed to embedding sustainability into every facet of our daily operations. We recognise that sustainability is an ongoing journey and are continually striving to reduce our carbon footprint wherever possible. Below are some of the initiatives we have implemented to date.

Dry Amenities

We are delighted to share our ongoing commitment to reducing single-use plastics in our guest rooms. As part of this initiative, we have made a significant decision to eliminate single-use dry amenities, taking a bold step towards a plastic-free environment.

We understand the importance of preserving our planet for future generations. By removing single-use plastic amenities such as toothbrushes, combs, and shower caps from our guest rooms, we are significantly reducing our environmental footprint. Instead, guests can request dry amenities by calling room service or visiting our friendly team at reception.

Large Amenities

As part of our ongoing efforts, we have made the proactive decision to move to large format amenities, replacing our single-use plastic common amenities with eco-friendly pump dispensers throughout the hotel. By eliminating single-use plastic bottles, we are significantly reducing the amount of waste generated by our operations. This commitment aligns with our dedication to environmental stewardship and reflects our ongoing efforts to improve sustainability in all aspects of our hotel.

Food Waste

At Mantra Mooloolaba Beach, we are committed to reducing food wastage and promoting sustainable practices across our conferencing department. We understand the importance of minimising our environmental impact while delivering exceptional culinary experiences to our guests.

  • Added recycling bins for plastics and glass bottles and bamboo biodegradable serving plates.
  • Plastic straws and plastic covered mints in conference rooms removed.
  • Glass bottles instead of plastic bottles for serving and refillable with spring water
  • Using local suppliers for our conferencing catering.

Recycling

At Mantra Mooloolaba Beach, all hotel waste is separated into co-mingle, cardboard, food waste and general waste, minimising our impact on landfill. We recycle all glassware, paper and plastic responsibly. In addition, we have replaced our plastic Do Not Disturb signs, Room Keys and Pens with Bamboo alternatives as they have a longer life span and can be biodegraded at the end of their use.

Community Support

We are committed to maintaining strong connections with our local community and give back wherever possible.

  • Support Red Frog Foundation via recycling with containers for change
  • Acknowledge our traditional custodians, the Kabi Kabi people, via an Acknowledgement of Country prior to commencing conferences.
  • Sponsoring local events
