As a care hotel, the well-being of both the guest and the environment is our top priority.
We’ve partnered with several local and international organisations. Our goals: to protect the ocean, to commit to a cleaner Curaçao, and to inspire and support others to live sustainably and consciously. We focus on minimising the use of plastic on the island, as well as handling the separation and disposal of waste in a sustainable manner. At Dolphin Suites, one of our core values is taking care of each other. Together with our partners, we’d like to emphasize the importance of this in getting the best out of yourself and each other.
Our sustainable policy
Sustainable entrepreneurship is part of our DNA. Since the opening of Dolphin Suites hotel in 2009, we have strived to create a work environment that allows us to minimize our carbon footprint without compromising the well-being of our guests. Some examples of this include the use of solar boilers and energy efficient equipment and lighting. The hotel swimming pools contain salt and magnesium, have a minimum chlorine content and are cleaned using biodegradable cleaning products. The pool water is also used for guest facilities to minimize water waste and pollution.
In 2016, Dolphin Suites was the first hotel to start separating waste and has since been an active ambassador within the sector to stimulate others to implement similar forms of sustainable entrepreneurship. For a more detailed overview of our sustainable entrepreneurship, please view
this report.
We believe that working together is the best thing we can do to realize positive change and create a more sustainable, healthy world. It’s one of the reasons we work hand-in-hand with different organizations like the Water Refill Program, You Are A Hero, and Hotels for Trees.
*These 3 examples of our partnerships contribute to the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) #17: Partnerships for the Goals.
The Hotels for Trees foundation contributes directly to a greener world - a world in which one new tree is planted every time a guest chooses to skip room cleaning. This green choice makes a contribution to the (re-)forestation projects Trees for All, both in the Netherlands and abroad.
Do you also want to do your part to help? You only need to hang the Hotels for Trees door hanger outside of the room door during your stay. You can see the results of how many trees we've planted below:
*With this partnership we contribute to SDG #15: Life on Land.
In collaboration with GreenForce, we encourage our guests and employees to separate their waste products before disposal. Bins are provided to accommodate for waste separation both in public areas and the hotel rooms.

As a proud preferred partner of D-TAP, Dolphin Suites endorses taking care of each other and our environment. Dolphin Suites has been a water refill station and active seller of the D-Bottle since 2019. With this, the hotel is able to contribute towards minimising the use of plastic on the island and encourage visitors to drink enough water for the tropical climate. We have also created our own specially designed water bottle, complete with the Dolphin Suites logo.
*With this partnership we contribute to SDG #15: Life on Land.
Care for the environment, care for Curaçao and care for its residents is an important aspect of our vision. To this end, we like to look for opportunities to contribute to the well-being of the local community. In December 2015, we organised a hand bike expedition on the island with Paralympic hand bike participants. This fundraiser allowed us to open a clinic on Curaçao for people with disabilities. Dolphin Suites is an ambassador of the You Are A Hero foundation, an initiative aimed at increasing the quality of life for people with disabilities in Curaçao.
* With this partnership we contribute to sdg #3: good health and well-being.
We must learn to produce and use in sustainable ways to reduce and repair the damage done to our planet. Sustainability as a lifestyle is becoming more and more important, and this is at the forefront of phase two of our hotel, with natural light and cooling breezes worked into the design of the building. Other sustainable elements include a water irrigation system, grease traps, the use of solar panels, and water heating and control systems to minimize the use of energy.
*These efforts contribute to SDG #12: Responsible Consumption and Production.
