WORLDWIDE: Beyond Green has expanded its network of sustainable accommodations with the addition of nine new member properties to its global portfolio.
Last year we reported that the Preferred Travel Group’s Beyond Green had expanded its partnership with andBeyond Travel which would mean adding 23 new properties to its portfolio.
AndBeyond has been running its initiatives in community-based conservation, wildlife protection, and environmental stewardship since 1991.
The group, which also added new itineraries across Africa and the Americas to its website, said it would be adding the properties over 2024-2025.
The portfolio of sustainable hotels, resorts, and lodges now includes 50 member properties across 22 countries.
