Staff WriterThere’s green, and then there’s Pula green. While most resorts are still figuring out how to cut their carbon footprint without slicing into the bottom line, Pula Golf Resort is already on its second lap around the sustainability circuit—raising the bar with a Balearic blend of clean energy, circular thinking, and regenerative hospitality.
This Earth Day, under the rallying cry of “Our Power, Our Planet”, the Mallorca-based retreat is marking 30 years of eco-driven innovation. And if that sounds like a PR pitch—just wait until you hear what they’ve actually done.
Powering Paradise: Energy That Doesn’t Cost the Earth
In answer to Earth Day’s global call to triple clean electricity by 2030, Pula’s pushing ahead with a renewable toolkit most city councils would envy:
- Solar energy through rooftop arrays
- Green energy from Alcanzia, Spain’s eco-energy leader
- Geothermal and aerothermal power integrated into the rooms of the resort’s historic hotel
- EV charging stations across the property
- LED lighting throughout every last fairway and fork
It’s not a token gesture. It’s a transformation on a grid-wide scale.
Regenerative Roots: From Olazábal’s Greens to the Garden’s Chickens
Of course, Pula Golf Resort sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s baked into every corner of the estate.
The par-72 course, lovingly redesigned by José María Olázabal in the 2000s, may draw the players in—but it’s the behind-the-scenes eco-magic that leaves a lasting impression.
The resort’s S’Era de Pula restaurant sources ingredients (and wine) grown on its own 11,000m² organic farm—where ducks and chickens roam, and kitchen scraps feed the flock.
The golf course is irrigated with recycled water. Single-use plastics? Banished. And anything left on the plate is donated to local community programs. That’s sustainability with soul.
“We don’t just observe Earth Day,” says general manager Arnau Sala. “We live it. Sustainability is a way of life for Pula; that has been our ethos throughout our entire history and will continue to be vital for decades to come.
Earth Day 2025 reminds us that clean energy is our shared responsibility, and we are proud to play our part.”
A Legacy that Grows with the Grass
As Mallorca leans into a greener future, Pula Golf Resort continues to lead by example—proving that luxury doesn’t have to cost the Earth.
With Pula Golf Resort sustainability woven into every watt, wing, and watering can, this Earth Day celebration is less about headlines and more about habits.
After all, when the planet wins, we all win—preferably on the 18th green.
