Mermaid Beach Resort is a remarkable example of the seamless integration of nature, the environment, and tourism. Situated on the shores of Cox’s Bazar, it marks the beginning of eco-friendly tourism in the region.
With a design emphasizing environmental sustainability, Mermaid ensures that nature’s protection is prioritized at every step of its operations.
The resort is constructed using 100% local materials and eco-friendly structures, ensuring that modern conveniences are fully integrated while the natural beauty is preserved.
Solar-powered lighting, tree-planting projects, and environmentally conscious waste management practices are all part of the resort’s commitment to sustainable development.
Mermaid Beach Resort is also a favorite destination for international tourists due to its world-class facilities and outstanding natural harmony.
More than just a vacation spot, Mermaid Beach Resort offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature. Located along the picturesque coastline of Cox’s Bazar, the resort is renowned for its eco-friendly design and sustainable management practices.
Anisul Haque Chowdhury Sohag, Managing Director of Mermaid Eco Tourism Limited, said each building is designed to ensure the natural water flow is never disturbed.
“The structures are built in such a way that the surrounding biodiversity remains undamaged. No building at Mermaid is taller than the surrounding trees, ensuring the area stays lush and green,” he added.
Mermaid’s food ingredients are sourced locally, enabling rural communities, particularly women, to sell their produce or vegetables and become more self-reliant.
Mermaid Eco Resort has transformed the lives of thousands of people in Cox’s Bazar and significantly impacted the people of Pechar Dwip, a previously unknown village.
Every structure at the resort is made from local materials, and eco-friendly practices such as solar-powered lighting, rainwater harvesting, and waste management are part of its core philosophy. The aim is to strike a balance between modern amenities and nature.
The resort offers environmentally friendly cottages built by local artisans from locally sourced bamboo, old ship wood, clay, and other natural materials.
Each cottage allows guests to enjoy the fresh sea breeze and the soothing touch of nature.
Moreover, the resort strongly emphasizes organically grown ingredients to serve delicious and healthy meals.
With its efforts to maintain a natural balance, Mermaid Beach Resort has become not just a destination for national tourists but also a model eco-tourism haven for environmentally conscious travelers worldwide.
