Review:
During my stay I was astounded by the self-sufficiency of this business. An example of their efforts is shown in their water conservation.

Damai utilizes a water reuse system that directs used guest water to on-site tanks. Wastewater is filtered through a series of tanks containing volcanic rock, porous rubber, and sand. Even waste from the toilets, or "black water," is collected and treated using natural enzymes to break down the organic waste. Black water is then passed through a series of filters. All treated water is tested once a month to ensure the highest health rating and then reused in the hotel gardens.

And on top of all of that the staff were gracious, warm and lovely people. I feel at home every time Igo there.
