RezHub.com Announces Dream Green Vacation Giveaway

TUESDAY, 23 SEPTEMBER 2008

RezHub.com launched a new Dream Green Vacation Giveaway Contest to show travelers that going green does not have to mean going to extremes. The online travel website has partnered with the brand new Hacienda Tres Rios in Playa Del Carmen Mexico to provide a luxury all-inclusive vacation for 4, with round-trip flights and a full carbon offset. To enter, travelers will need to visit http://www.rezhub.com/dreamgreen and enter their email address.

Since its launch last year, RezHub.com and their Green Travel Hub have been on a mission to provide green travel options to fit every traveler. This Dream Green Giveaway illustrates that green vacations can provide all the luxuries and amenities a traveler could need. The contest's grand prize trip is to the luxurious (4 star) Hacienda Tres Rios and it's all-inclusive which means the resort will provide all meals, room-service, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, and more. Tres Rios also includes yoga and tai chi classes, snorkeling, kayaking, and adventure activities like a jungle canopy zip-line and rock climbing wall. Also located on the property is a spa, where guests can be pampered with massage, facials, and the usual spa services.

What makes this vacation green? Aside from the full carbon offset, the Hacienda Tres Rios has a comprehensive environmental platform. The hotel is one of the only properties around the world to earn a full 5 Branch Green Score on RezHub.com. In 2006 SEMARNAT recognized Tres R�os as a �regional and national model for sustainable tourism development.� The resort was one of only three national tourism projects to receive a unique environmental seal of approval by the highest Mexican environmental authority. Tres R�os began as a nature park and has been developed to preserve that unique environment. From their planning to their construction to their daily operations, Hacienda Tres R�os carefully works to ensure the least environmental impact. Details of their environmental mission can be found on their website by visiting http://www.tres-rios.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view§ionid=6&id=35.

"This contest is the perfect way to show travelers that even luxury vacations can be easy on the environment," says Technology Director for the website Will Strohl, "The giveaway is one of our many efforts that will help change the image of green travel from something extreme, to something any traveler can achieve." After entering at http://www.rezhub.com/dreamgreen, website visitors have an opportunity to earn extra entries by completing simple tasks.
