Green Key establishment Atlas Kasbah Ecolodge in Morocco wins international tourism award

Atlas Kasbah Ecolodge from Morocco won the attractive 2015 World Responsible Tourism Awards in the category “best hotel for local sourcing” during an international tourism fair in London.

The 2015 World Responsible Tourism Awards were handed out on 4 November 2015 during the World Travel Market in London.

The Green Key establishment Atlas Kasbah Ecolodge in Morocco won the gold award in the category “Best Hotel for Local Sourcing”. The establishment won the award with the following motivation: "This eco-Kasbah was built from scratch in 2009 in the Argan Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO site to protect the endemic argan tree. This Kasbah was built with a view to protecting and proud-sharing the Berber heritage, that of the owner, Hassan Aboutayeb. Pride, protection and pristine beauty oozes from every hand crafted corner of this 11 bedroom Kasbah, just twenty minutes from Agadir in the High Atlas Mountains."

Green Key International would like to warmly congratulate Atlas Kasbah Ecolodge with the prestigious award! We are very proud to have the establishment taking part in the Green Key programme.
