Swiss-Belhotel International's MĀUA Brand Honored at HKB National Business Awards 2023 for Sustainable Luxury

Swiss-Belhotel International’s commitment to sustainability and innovation has received prestigious recognition at the HKB National Business Awards 2023 in the Hospitality & Leisure category, with MĀUA Nusa Penida Resort serving as a shining example under the MĀUA brand.

The brand originates from New Zealand’s Maori Culture. Maori are well known for developing harmonious relationships as well as an environmental understanding and appreciation, which sits at the core of our brand MĀUA.

Taranaki Maunga (Mountain), a dormant stratovolcano in Taranaki, in the North Island of New Zealand: is a symbol of the Maori people, holding cultural significance and serving as a protective guardian. Taranaki, the province and the Maunga is our turanga wae wae, a powerful concept in Maori Culture and a sense of belonging. These hectares are our turanga wae wae, the heirloom of the Faull family.

The brand aims to create luxury destinations that prioritize sustainability and eco-friendly practices, based on the above origins and ideas.

Any property under this brand must reflect the culture of MĀUA and create a meaningful manuhiri (guest) experience of togetherness and peace in the midst of a life-inspiring natural environment.

Swiss-Belhotel International’s commitment to sustainability and innovation has received prestigious recognition at the HKB National Business Awards 2023 in the Hospitality & Leisure category, with MĀUA Nusa Penida Resort serving as a shining example under the MĀUA brand.

Located on the picturesque Nusa Penida Island, MĀUA Nusa Penida Resort offers a unique blend of luxury and eco-consciousness and translates the brand’s culture into a unique guest experience.

The brand MĀUA, carries the message and branding sculptured on an andesite rock carving which is located at the entrance of the Faull Family farm in Taranaki, New Zealand – the family behind Swiss-Belhotel International.

MĀUA creates a healthy, peaceful and serene environment where the manuhiri (guest) can experience life and rejuvenation, one with nature and the environment.

One of the key facets contributing to MĀUA’s victory is the establishment of an Organic Garden at its properties, providing fresh, locally sourced ingredients for its restaurants. This groundbreaking initiative not only promotes sustainable farming practices but also significantly reduces the carbon footprint associated with food transportation. On-site beehives add sweetness and support the ecosystem, enhancing culinary offerings.

Water conservation is paramount, with greywater recycling for non-potable uses, preserving the island’s natural beauty. The “Less Paper” Policy minimizes paper waste by offering digital resources to guests.

Single-use plastic products are entirely eliminated, safeguarding the location’s pristine environment. The brand’s commitment to environmental responsibility extends to the local initiative of protection and conservation of the critically endangered Bali starling, a native bird species of Indonesia. In line with its concept, MĀUA branded property, depending on location, are advised to take measures in the rehabilitation and preservation of endangered species, ensuring a brighter future for generations to come.

MĀUA property architecture seamlessly blends modern design with original limestone terraces and lush gardens, creating a symbiotic connection between guests and nature while promoting sustainability.

The HKB National Business Awards 2023 have not only recognized but also celebrated Swiss-Belhotel International’s trailblazing efforts in creating the brand that prioritizes sustainability.

This award serves as a testament to the unwavering commitment of the MĀUA brand to environmental responsibility, proving that luxury and sustainability can seamlessly coexist.
