The NamKhan Ecolodge is committed to being as sustainable as possible. They have taken some key initiatives to ensure that they are achieving this aim. One such measure involves in the support of the local communities. The NamKhan Ecolodge purchases as much as possible from local people, supporting the surrounding businesses. Furthermore, the lodge promotes plant biodiversity in the surrounding area. By ensuring that the gardens are maintained and planting native plant species within the lodge garden, the NamKhan Ecolodge contributes into keeping the local plant biodiversity rich.
Due to the privileged location of the NamKhan Ecolodge, they have the land to have a functioning eco-farm. The farm is a fully operational organic farm. They focus on how to best practice the organic farming and concentrate on preserving the traditional Lao eco-farming practices. This eco-farm provides the produce for the lodge’s restaurant, as well as to the local communities surrounding the NamKhan Ecolodge.
The NamKhan Ecolodge is dedicated to implement eco-friendly practices. In order to reduce the amount of water wasted at the lodge, they have introduced the use of ‘water flow reducers’. These restrict the amount of water that is used by guests by strengthening the pressure of the water. Due to this increased water pressure, guests and staff waste less clean water. Also, the lodge collects and reuses rainwater, they use this to water the surrounding gardens and flush toilets. These two practices ensure that clean water is preserved and used unnecessarily.
All of the electricity that is used by the NamKhan Ecolodge comes from 100% renewable sources. This reduces the lodge’s impact on the environment, as all of their energy is from ‘green sources’ rather than damaging fossil fuels.
Children of all ages are permitted to stay at the NamKhan Ecolodge
