ROYALTON RIVIERA CANCUN RECEIVES GREEN GLOBE GOLD CERTIFICATION FOR 2025

Royalton Riviera Cancun, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort & Casino, has been awarded the Green Globe Gold Certification for 2025, a distinction that celebrates nearly ten years of consistent action in environmental sustainability and responsible travel practices.

Since earning its first certification in 2016, the resort has built a comprehensive program that spans energy efficiency, waste reduction, and sustainable sourcing. From replacing single-use amenities to implementing VeroWater purification systems and encouraging in-room conservation through guest education, each effort contributes to a broader environmental vision. The resort has also eliminated PET bottles and adopted bulk purchasing strategies to reduce packaging waste.

Beyond its environmental footprint, Royalton Riviera Cancun plays an active role in local biodiversity conservation. Located within the Puerto Morelos Reef National Park, the resort has helped protect sea turtle nests and support hatchling releases in collaboration with marine biologists. Over the past two years alone, nearly 7,000 hatchlings have been safely returned to the ocean. Community engagement also remains a key focus, with ongoing partnerships supporting 19 local organizations, including initiatives for women, children, elders, and animal welfare.

Cultural programming and support for local traditions further reflect the resort’s commitment to preserving the richness of the destination it calls home. This milestone reaffirms Blue Diamond Resorts’ dedication to advancing sustainability across its portfolio while creating positive, lasting impact in the regions it serves.
