Because every action matters, at Manoir Belle Plage, responsible resource use and sustainable development are at the heart of our priorities. We take daily steps with the goal of protecting the environment.
Manoir Belle Plage was honored with the Sustainable and Eco-Responsible Practices Award as well as Business of the Year at the 2025 Recognition Gala of the Baie-des-Chaleurs Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
Thank you to our valued guests, who believe in our vision, and congratulations to our team, who bring the Belle Plage mission to life every day!
At Manoir Belle Plage, we are actively committed to an eco-responsible approach to minimizing our environmental footprint.
Through our collaboration with Recyc-Québec and the Ministry of Tourism, we have implemented a tailored action plan aimed at reducing waste and optimizing our resources.
A few years ago, Manoir Belle Plage acquired a vacant lot behind the hotel in order to rebuild its ecosystem.
We planted 2,000 trees in 2021. Today, we have planted more than 3,500: coniferous and deciduous trees, an arboretum featuring noble species such as oaks and birches, as well as walnut trees and more than 150 fruit trees.
Our goal is to encourage local consumption by developing a pick-your-own harvest initiative and by transforming our own fruit in our kitchen to incorporate it into our breakfast offerings.
This initiative has allowed us to recreate a true ecosystem in the heart of the city by eliminating invasive species and revitalizing the environment with healthy and sustainable plant life.
We have acquired equipment that eliminates single-use products and encourages bulk procurement using reusable containers. Since them, during the peak season (mid-May to mid-September), we observed a reduction in waste production equivalent to :
To reduce food waste from our breakfast service, Manoir Belle Plage has teamed up with some very special partners: pigs!
While we were searching for the perfect solution to make up for the lack of composting collection in our county, our cook Aline couldn’t help but laugh at us: “Come on! Table scraps, people have been feeding pigs with those for thousands of years!“
Since 2025, all of our table scraps go toward feeding little pigs living on Aline’s family farm. Every year, a new little pig will benefit from this arrangement and give us a helping hand in reducing our food waste.
All of our bathrooms are equipped with Oneka product dispensers in the showers— a sustainable solution that allows us to say goodbye to single-use plastic bottles and reduce our environmental footprint.
Gentle on the skin and respectful of nature, Oneka products are organic, biodegradable, and free of harsh chemical agents… and on top of that, they smell heavenly!
They fit perfectly into our commitment to a more responsible stay, without compromising your comfort and well-being.
