Get noticed in a crowded market
Sustainability is one of the first filters eco-conscious travellers apply. A reviewed set of facts gives your listing something concrete to say while competitors write "eco-friendly" and hope.
Run a more sustainable stay — and a more efficient one.
The Green Short Stay service helps short-term rental owners turn everyday operational choices into real savings and a better guest experience. Efficient appliances, smarter water use and less waste don't just lower your costs — they're exactly what environmentally conscious guests are looking for.
For owners of apartments, studios, seaside villas and small guest houses: start with a free assessment to see exactly where your property stands today. From there, a paid review gives you a clear improvement roadmap and identifies specific, substantiated facts about your property you can feature in your listing — worded in line with current EU rules on environmental claims, not vague "eco-friendly" language that guests (and platforms) increasingly distrust.
Includes your own sharable web link
Every reviewed property gets a public page listing its checked sustainability merits. Place it in your listing, on your website, or share it with guests.
No account needed. The free assessment takes about 10 minutes and shows exactly where you stand.
WHY OWNERS JOIN
Better bookings, from guests who care what your property runs on
Sustainable-minded travellers are the fastest-growing part of the short-term rental market, and they read listings closely. The Green Short Stay service turns your sustainability efforts into specific, checkable facts guests can see for themselves — not another vague "eco-friendly" line.
Turn browsers into bookings
Guests book what they can verify. Specific, evidence-checked facts about your property remove doubt at the exact moment someone is deciding whether to trust your listing.
Charge what your standards are worth
Low-flow fittings, sorted waste, local suppliers, efficient heating — you already paid for them. The Initiative helps you put that spend into words guests actually believe, instead of a generic claim they've learned to ignore.
Say it without greenwashing
Every fact you feature is checked against evidence you upload first. That means what's on your listing is something you can stand behind — not a line that falls apart the moment a guest asks a question.
Three steps to know exactly where you stand
From first question to a report you can act on, usually inside two weeks.
Step 1
Assess yourself for free
Answer plain-language questions about your property in six areas. You get a private score out of 100.
Step 2
Submit for review by our team
The same questionnaire, plus photos or documents per item. A human reviewer checks your evidence — no automated pass.
Step 3
Get your report and your sharable web link
Receive your improvement report and a dedicated web link showing exactly what was reviewed, by email within 10 business days — ready to feature in your listing, website and check-in pack.
YOUR SHARABLE WEB LINK
A verified link you can actually put to work
Your review isn't a buried PDF. It's a fast, mobile-friendly web page that shows your property's sustainability merits with one tap.

WHAT'S IN YOUR REPORT
What your report actually tells you
Your score is for you, not a public rating. It's a private, section-by-section picture of where your property stands today — never flattened into a single public grade, and never something guests see as a pass/fail badge.
Your private score breakdown
See exactly how you're doing across all six areas — energy, water, waste, materials, guest experience and operations — so you know precisely where to focus, not just an overall number.
Prioritised recommendations
A clear list of what to fix first, ordered by impact and effort, based on the gaps your evidence actually showed.
Your personalized web shareable link
A shareable link featuring the specific facts about your property that were checked and confirmed — ready to feature in your listing, honestly and precisely, instead of a generic claim.
