staying green
A natural setting as beautiful as Camelback Mountain is a constant reminder of the importance of protecting the environment. At Sanctuary, we show our concern for the earth in a variety of ways including:
- Paper & plastic recycling throughout the resort, including guest rooms
- Use of ceramic mugs and glassware in guest rooms
- Linen re-use program at guests' discretion
- Organic red flower amenities in guest rooms
- Resort-wide thermostat control
- Low-flow toilets resort-wide, including guest rooms
- Organic-based janitorial service in the spa
- Bamboo trees in spa to reduce heating & cooling costs
- Low water-use drip irrigation on 95% of the property
- Desert landscaping and drought-tolerant plants
- Crushed-rock mulch to reduce water evaporation from the soil
- Rechargeable, battery-powered blowers to reduce noise pollution
- Photocell or timers on all outdoor lights
- Electric golf carts resort-wide
- Recycling cardboard, batteries and tires used by maintenance team
- Buying from local vendors wherever possible to reduce "food miles"
- Organic food & beverage purchasing
- Restaurant and bar lit by daylight as extensively as possible
- Cloth napkins, glass cups and ceramic dishes throughout the resort
- Printed materials on 30–100% recycled paper
