Pikaia Lodge, Galapagos Islands Pikaia Lodge has worked closely with the Ecuadorian government to ensure that it can welcome eco-tourists without risking harming the local environment and wildlife / ©Pikaia Lodge From its construction to its daily operations, environmental consciousness is ingrained into Pikaia Lodge. Operating at a fully carbon-neutral status, the lodge successfully proves that the five-star comforts enjoyed at luxury hotels need not be sacrificed for the sake of sustainability. The lodge itself is made of only the most environmentally friendly building materials, such as the hand-collected local Galapagos lava stone tiles that line many of the floors and walls. The building is designed to provide for itself where possible; solar paneling generates energy to power the lodge, the roof collects rainwater for purification, and the light-colored roofing prevents interior heat buildup, mitigating the need for air conditioning in the spacious and modern guest rooms.
