About The Resort

At Mas Salagros, they have the Green Globe certification, the highest standard for sustainability in the world. A certification granted to companies committed to sustainability in the tourism sector. All the buildings in the complex were built facing south to make the most of natural lighting, especially during the winter. The biomass boiler is the main source of heating: it is fuelled by wood chips from sustainably managed forests in Catalonia, which helps to reduce CO2 emissions. They also have 250 m2 of solar panels, offering energy savings of 15%. Finally, low-energy LEDs and warm colors are used to ensure the minimum environmental impact.

What is now Mas Salagros EcoResort was previously a farmhouse dating back to 1497 and known as Can Sala Gros. The location in Vallromanes, paired with the history of the building and the area, standards of sustainability, and all European regulations regarding ecological issues have created this dream spot, 100% eco-friendly.
