our eco-mission
We are more than just a tourism company! We try to be as commited as possible to take care of our planet. Being aware that our business is based on clients that fly all over the planet and increase the C02 emission. We are trying to make a positive impact on the island with this following ECO-projects.
what we do
- Seperating Waste in our shared kitchen
- Offering drinking water at reception to refill your bottles and reduce the plastic garbage we produce at the hostel
- We are growing our own food on our eco finca in the mountains of Gran Canaria to share it with our guests (just starting so please dont expect too much for now)
- Reforestation: Planting local trees on Gran Canaria to fight against desertification and global warming.

ecologic fruit forest
In July 2021 Ventana Azul started a project on a 5000m2 finca in the mountains of Gran Canaria. We are already producing avocados, bananas (here called plátanos), maracuyá, tangerines, papaya and ecologic eggs of free running chickens to feed our team. This way we want to gain more independence from the system and fight against the negative effects of globalization.
Once the finca is set up more nicely we will also start to offer visits and organize some events in our Tropical Paradise to share it with you! 🙂
This project is based on the principles of syntropic agroforestry and permaculture.
