Sustainability
A key initiative of Rosewood Hotels and Resorts is known as Rosewood Impacts, a purpose-driven commitment to positively affect not only the people who they serve, but the environments in which they operate. The effect is a unique approach to hospitality that is circular, collaborative, and ultimately, sustainable.
Lauren Nakoa is at the heart of this ongoing effort at Kona Village. As Sustainability Manager, she has the great kuleana, or responsibility, of ensuring the health and longevity of the resort’s sacred ecosystem, from land to sea to the ways in which our guests interact with both.
