Davidson Celebrates Plastic-Free July

Davidson is committed to identifying areas within our portfolio to save, reuse, and conserve, from reducing our reliance on single-use items, to taking action in the fight against food waste. We’re continuously optimizing our operations with sustainability in mind. It’s all part of our company-wide commitment to fostering greener, healthier, more sustainable environments within our hotels, resorts, and restaurants.

This month marks Plastic Free July, a global movement that helps millions of people be part of the solution to plastic pollution. Here’s how we are participating and being responsible environmental stewards:

The Singer Oceanfront Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton

• PATH Water Bottles: At The Singer, we’ve partnered with PATH to provide two reusable water bottles in every guest room, making it easy for guests to stay hydrated while reducing single-use plastic. Refill stations are conveniently located on every guest floor, in the lobby, and by the pool.

Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach

• The property has a program in place to purchase sustainable and environmentally preferable products in the following categories: paper products, toiletries, furniture, flooring and carpet, refillable dispensers for liquid toiletries (soap, shampoo, conditioner).
• We’re proud to introduce PATH reusable water bottles in every guest room, because small changes make a big impact. Designed to reduce single-use plastics, these bottles help preserve our sugar-white sands and sparkling Gulf views for generations to come. Your stay includes two to use, refill, and take with you.

Cape Rey Carlsbad Beach, a Hilton Resort & Spa

• Over the past three years, the F&B department has systematically converted our disposables (plastic utensils, to-go containers, napkins, etc.) to 100% biodegradable and compostable, single-use disposables.
• At the same time, we have reduced our paper and plastic expenses by over 24%. This was accomplished by putting a property-wide focus on reducing the use of disposable cups, cutlery, and packaging for all employee beverages and meals.
• Reusable and recyclable aluminum water bottles in the guestrooms, along with filtered water stations on each floor for convenience to ENJOY. REUSE. REPEAT.

Baker’s Cay Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton

• Members of the “Reef Relief” and the “Surfrider Foundation’s – Ocean Friendly Restaurants,” both programs committed towards the reduction of single-use plastic waste.
• At check-in, every registered guest receives a complimentary PATH® Water bottle, a refillable and recyclable aluminum vessel that can be filled at one of our multiple hydration stations located throughout the property.
• We’ve adopted innovative technologies to minimize our environmental impact, including Hilton’s Digital Key and RFID-chipped reusable wristbands, which serve as sustainable alternatives to traditional plastic room keys. By leveraging these digital solutions, we’re able to significantly reduce our use of single-use plastics, eliminate the need for printed invoices, and decrease overall waste, ultimately contributing to a more eco-friendly guest experience.
• Bulk amenity bottle initiative in partnership with eco-friendly supplier Lather Products.
