ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
HELP US PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
Plava Laguna is dedicated to environmental protection and sustainability – that is why we adopted our own sustainable business policy. Our goal is to reduce the impact of our facilities on the surrounding environment by implementing best practices and using natural resources carefully. We know you care about the environment, so we kindly ask you help us achieve our goals by complying with the following measures:
- Save water – Water is a rare resource that directly affects the environment, so let’s try and reduce our water usage wherever possible. Help us by closing the taps while you shampoo your hair or brush your teeth and using the short cycle when you flush the toilet.
- Save energy – Please turn off lights when you are not using them. As the temperature in the rooms is regulated by an automated climate control system, please keep all doors and windows closed to allow the functioning of the system.
- Reduce waste – Please put all waste and cigarette ends in the corresponding garbage bins.
- Recycle – Please put paper, plastic bottles and cans in the corresponding waste bins.
- Prevent water and soil pollution – To reduce the risk of pollution, please take care when using greasy liquids and fuels. In the event of an accident, please contact our staff, who will assist you and provide you with a grease absorbent material.
- Animal protection – Please do not feed the birds, cats and other animals in the resort, as this may seriously undermine their natural balance. environmental protection

SAFETY
YOUR SAFETY
Please familiarize yourself with emergency evacuation routes and exits depicted in the plan on the entrance door. By acting responsibly, you contribute to your own safety and the safety of other guests and hotel employees.
Please be cautious and careful to prevent possible fires.
IN THE EVENT OF FIRE OR SMOKE IN THE ROOM
Call reception by dialling 9, state your room number and give an accurate description of the situation. If the room is filled with smoke, cover your mouth, nose and eyes with a moist handkerchief or towel. Leave the room and close the door behind you. Follow the green signs in the hallways. Do not use the elevator as it will stop in the case of danger, but use the stairs as shown in the evacuation plan.
FIRE ALARM
If the door is not hot, open it carefully, leave the room and start walking towards the closest evacuation exit. Take your key with you, so you can return to your room if the evacuation route is inaccessible. If the hallway is filled with smoke, cover your mouth, nose and eyes with a moist handkerchief or towel. When escaping down smoky hallways, bend down, as the smoke is thinner near the floor. Follow the green signs in the hallways. Do not use the elevator as it will stop in the case of danger, but use the stairs as shown in the evacuation plan.
STAYING IN YOUR ROOM
If the door is hot, do not open it. Line the door and ventilation openings with moist towels, linen and clothes to prevent the inflow of smoke and poisonous gases. Call reception by dialling 9 and tell the staff where you are. Stay calm and wait for further instructions. Stand by the window to be visible from the outside. Wait for the firemen.
FIRE PREVENTION:
- Do not smoke in bed.
- Do not empty ashtrays into the garbage bin.
- Do not leave electrical appliances turned on, or leave burning candles and similar items unattended.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
