In a significant stride for eco-conscious travel, Beyond Green, a leading portfolio of the world’s most sustainable accommodations, has announced the addition of ten exceptional properties to its global network between April and June 2025. This expansion marks the debut of its first properties in Sweden and Mozambique, underscoring the group’s dedication to extending sustainable hospitality to new regions.
Since its inception in 2021 under the Preferred Travel Group, Beyond Green has remained committed to redefining luxury tourism by ensuring all member properties meet over 100 stringent sustainability indicators. These standards are carefully aligned with global benchmarks, including the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). From eco-friendly construction to community engagement, each property demonstrates a genuine commitment to environmental stewardship and cultural preservation.
Strength in Collaboration and Shared Values
Beyond Green’s growth is not just about numbers—it is about fostering a collective movement. The brand’s inaugural Leadership Summit earlier this year served as a platform to reaffirm shared commitments to sustainability, inspiring member hotels to lead with purpose.
Notably, the expansion welcomes back three founding members who had briefly stepped away: Vermejo, a Ted Turner Reserve in New Mexico, along with Blancaneaux Lodge and Turtle Inn, both part of The Family Coppola Hideaways in Belize. Their return reflects the strong sense of unity within the Beyond Green community.
Jade McBride, President of Ted Turner Reserves, expressed: “Rejoining Beyond Green feels like coming home to a shared purpose. This community elevates us all in our mission to regenerate the planet.”
