At Rosewood Baha Mar, we proudly participate in the brand initiative of Rosewood Sustains, showcasing our commitment to growing our lifestyle ecosystem responsibly by embracing circular hospitality and protecting our environment for future generations. To promote the protection and conservation of Bahamian natural resources, ecosystems, and biodiversity, we have aligned with Baha Mar's conservation efforts through several initiatives including the protection of the coral reefs surrounding the islands through BREEF, providing guests the opportunity to offset their carbon footprint while they are traveling with our CHOOOSE partnership, and much more.

When you opt into Rosewood Baha Mar's carbon offset program in partnership with CHOOOSE, your flight into Nassau and stay at Rosewood helps provide clean energy to the world's least developed regions.
Lend a helping hand on your next Caribbean adventure. Join us in meaningful initiatives that let you support the well-being of our community and natural environment while you vacation at Rosewood Baha Mar.
In keeping with Rosewood's Verdes® initiative to minimize the ecological footprint of its hotels, we offer our guests the opportunity to join us in conserving natural resources.

If you would like for your towels to be replaced, please place them in the bath, otherwise, if your towels me be used again tomorrow, please change them on the towel hook.
In partnership with VERO WATER, a sustainability-focused filtered water provider, Rosewood Baha Mar has officially eliminated single-use plastic across the resort. New water service stations around the property (pool, beach, public areas, etc.), have been installed for guests to easily refill their new bottles and hydrate on the go. Drinking water within the guest rooms can be found in glass bottles rather than plastic.
Upon arrival at the resort, all guests are given a custom-designed reusable water bottle inspired by historic locations in the Bahamas and brought to life by watercolorist, Gaspard Le Marchant Tupper. A piece of watercolor art–from harbor-filled ships to lighthouses to palms–will be depicted on these stainless steel, double-walled bottles, and guests are encouraged to keep them as a memento and continue conserving plastic even after they leave.
The property’s art program is curated by Creative Art Director and Bahamian native, John Cox, who runs Baha Mar’s extensive gallery, The Current (which houses the country's largest permanent collection of Bahamian works, comprising more than 2,500 pieces).
Rosewood Baha Mar has partnered with BREEF to offer fun, educational programs for guests centered around the Coral Reef Sculpture Garden, a habitat for marine organisms, created by local Bahamian artists and home to the world’s largest underwater sculpture and living art gallery. The first program, developed to promote marine life conservation, is the Citizen Science Program, where guests will have the opportunity to enjoy a half-day adventure snorkeling with experienced ocean guides. They will dive into an educational snorkeling tour of the living art gallery and learn facts about the coral reefs while identifying various species of coral and fish. To conclude the experience, guests can adopt their own coral fragment to be planted beneath the sea, and a plaque with their chosen coral name will be permanently placed on their coral propagation unit. BREEF will monitor the growth and health of the baby coral so on the guest’s next visit, they can see how it is progressing and helping to restore the reef.
Guests also have the chance to volunteer with the local community by participating in a beach clean-up to help combat plastic pollution and preserve the beautiful Bahamian white sand beaches. BREEF also works with Cans4Kids to recycle all the cans and bottles found on the beaches and raise funds for local schools and youth organizations.
