STRIVING FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

Magnum Serviced Apartments are leading the Northern Territory’s accommodation providers by focussing on sustainable tourism and are dedicated to protecting and enhancing Darwin, it’s surrounding environments and communities.

OUR VISION

Is for Darwin to remain as a well known tropical oasis that is a gateway to diverse world-class ecoystems and culture. We wish to conserve our nature-based adventure destination, giving an opportunity for visitors from all over the world to experience the natural beauty, diverse ecosystems, cultural activities and experiences of the Top End.

 

OUR MISSION

Is to be custodians of this environment. To enable Darwin to exist and be preserved, while giving visitors the opportunity to experience it in an economically and ecologically viable way, without interfering with or having any adverse impact upon the long-term sustainability of Darwin and the Top End’s unique ecosystems.

SUSTAINABILITY ACCOMPLISHMENTS

 

Our Challenge

Implementing sustainability initiatives on a pre-existing apartment building located in Darwin’s CBD.

 

Our Accomplishments

We embarked on our Sustainability journey in August of 2022 and have been focussed on becoming the best sustainable accommodation provider in the Northern Territory.

Our sustainability accomplishments focus on reducing water and resource use, increasing recycling; as well as inspiring our guests, staff and surrounding community to become Sustainability Warriors to join us in our mission to protect the Top End’s unique cultures and ecosystems.

 

Our Staff

Our team are passionate individuals who have chosen Darwin as their home because they enjoy it’s unique, easy-going lifestyle, year-round warm weather, our exotic, friendly and diverse community of people, and above all the adventure, nature and wildlife right on our doorstep. They all care deeply about the Top End and the need to respect and preserve the diverse nature and culture found in our backyard.

Our Guests

Rest assured our changes won’t impact the quality of your stay with us. In fact, you probably won’t even notice or realise many of the changes we have already made. We think this is GREAT as we are consistently making positive, sustainable changes to our business without compromising on quality, price and most importantly your stay with us.

Reducing Waste

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Reducing Waste

We have phased out single-use plastic toiletry products in all bathrooms.  This has saved up to 800L of single-use plastic going to landfill each year.

 

Recycling

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Recycling

We have expanded our existing recycling efforts to include a wider range of materials such as paper, plastic, glass, and aluminium. Each apartment contains 3 clearly labelled bins : general rubbish, 10c recycling and paper/cardboard.

We Recycle and donate used items and furniture to our local tip shop.
