Officially a 'Climate Friendly Business'

February 2012

We are now officially a 'Climate Friendly Business’! We have measured and offset greenhouse gas emissions generated by our business activities including; LPG, electricity, business vehicle use, and off-site waste disposal.

During the period 1/7/10-30/6/11, we offset 4.55 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions, via the Xinjiang Dabancheng Sanjang Wind Project.

Somewhere Unique maintains its 4.5 Star Rating!

January 2012

We had our Star Rating Assessment today with AAA Tourism under the brand new “Quality Based” Rating Scheme, and are proudly still a 4.5 Star Rated property. Previously the rating scheme was a “Facilities Based” program, and has received a significant revamp after research showed that: 94% of travellers rate cleanliness as the most important aspect of a STAR Rating, and 90% of travellers want STAR Ratings to measure quality. The new “Quality Based” Scheme is one of four keystone partners recognised by the Australian Government’s TQUAL Accreditation under the National Tourism Accreditation Framework.
