SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Discover All We Have to Offer

 

At Albatros Spa and Resort Hotel, Corporate Social Responsibility isn’t just a fancy phrase we toss around – it’s a promise we make to protect our future. Think of it as our sustainability mixtape: a collection of values, milestones, and heartfelt efforts that show we’re not just about plush pillows and killer sunsets.

For over 40 years, as a proud three-generation family business, we’ve been deeply devoted to the people, the community, and Mother Nature herself. The following paragraphs are a testament to doing right by the planet, its people, and all the things that make life worth living.

Supporting the Local Community

Crete is our home, and we love our neighbors. That’s why we’re big fans of keeping it local. From sourcing our ingredients from Cretan farmers to decking out our spaces with locally crafted goods, we make sure our operations are rooted in the island’s rich traditions. And when guests ask for recommendations? We happily point them to local car rentals, hidden gem restaurants, and must-see sights because sharing Crete’s magic is what we love most. But it doesn’t stop there. Our incredible staff is the heart of our success, and we’re committed to helping them shine. We provide training and development opportunities each year, ensuring they’re not just skilled but masters in their fields.

Plus, we create a safe, welcoming workplace that prioritizes their well-being because happy team members mean happier guests. Equal opportunities? Absolutely—it’s a no-discrimination zone here, and everyone’s welcome to grow with us. As for giving back, we don’t just stop at words. From donating linens, furniture, and food to local hospitals and shelters to supporting sports programs in smaller communities, we aim to lift up every corner of Crete. After all, a thriving community makes for a stronger, more vibrant home – for us, our team, and you, our guests.

Guests Are Family, Too

When you stay with us, you’re not just a room number – your happiness and safety is very important to us.
First and foremost, we respect your privacy like it’s a secret recipe for Cretan olive oil. Your personal data is stored safely, handled carefully, and never shared. We also pride ourselves on being a discrimination-free zone, where everyone feels welcome, celebrated, and maybe even a little spoiled. Behind the scenes, we’re all about keeping things safe and sound. We strictly follow labor laws, listen to our company doctor, and exceed health and safety standards like pros. And because we want your stay to be unforgettable, we’ve made it our mission to immerse you in the heart of Cretan culture. Here’s how:

●   Start your day with a Greek-inspired breakfast, where every bite tastes like sunshine.
●   Feast on traditional Cretan cuisine at our dinner buffet—it’s like a love letter to your taste buds.
●   Dance the night away at our weekly Cretan dance show (don’t worry, no prior experience required!)
●   Get hands-on at our free Greek cooking lessons—because who doesn’t want to go home with a new signature dish?
●   Sip and swirl at our free wine tastings with local producers in Prova Wine Bar. Cheers to Cretan vineyards!

In Conclusion:
A Toast to Responsibility
(With Local Wine, Of Course!)
