SUSTAINABILITY

When you stay with SERENATA, you’re not just choosing a hotel. You’re choosing a better Thailand.

Sustainable Since 1976

SERENATA is a group of hotels and resorts in Thailand.

Long before sustainability became a hospitality trend, SERENATA was already living it.

In 1976, we opened Thailand’s first eco lodge on the River Kwai — a bold commitment to nature-first hospitality that has defined everything we’ve built since. As a co-founder of the Thai Ecotourism and Adventure Travel Association (TEATA), we have helped shape responsible tourism standards across the country for nearly five decades.

Today, SERENATA operates 23 properties across Thailand. Every one of them carries that same founding belief: that great hospitality and genuine care for the land, the people, and the communities around us are inseparable.

“Don’t wait for anyone to save our world. It’s everyone’s responsibility. Do it more or less, it is better than ignoring and starting nothing. What we want to hear from everyone is: ‘I am doing the best I can.’ Billions of people will definitely create a great impact.”

— Chatchawan Soorangura, Executive Director, SERENATA Hotels & Resorts Group

Our Four Pillars of Responsibility

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Elimination of single-use plastics across all properties. A 4-colour waste sorting system directing waste to the right recycling channels. Linen reuse programmes that reduce water and energy consumption every day.

Protecting Nature Annual tree replanting across our properties. Organic gardens that supply our kitchens and educate our guests. Active preservation of wildlife habitats — from hornbills on Koh Yao to river ecosystems in Kanchanaburi.

Empowering Communities Local hiring is not a policy statement — it is how we operate. We give employment and professional training to residents, ethnic minorities, and island communities, creating livelihoods that stay where they belong.

Responsible Operations We co-engineered Thailand’s first septic tank system fitted under floating hotels, in partnership with Karat. Full wastewater management, energy-efficient laundry systems, and responsible water use are standard across the group.

Stay with Purpose: SERENATA × SocialGiver

SERENATA has taken our commitment a step further — partnering with SocialGiver, one of Thailand’s most trusted social impact platforms, to turn every hotel stay into a meaningful act of giving.

What is SocialGiver?

SocialGiver is an established online platform that connects businesses and consumers to vetted Thai foundations and non-profit organisations through a “buy one, give one” model. Every purchase on the platform generates direct, traceable support for causes that matter. SERENATA is one of the platform’s proudest hotel partners.
