Sustonica, which evaluates and certifies short-term rentals based on sustainability criteria, has partnered with Booking.com to help bring more visibility to properties on its platform. Sustonica founder and CEO Vanessa de Souza Lage said that properties that have received the Sustonica certification will now show a “Level 3+ Travel Sustainable” badge at the top of their listing on Booking.com. Booking.com’s 2023 Sustainable Travel Research Report, based on a survey of more than 33,000 people in 35 countries, found that 65% said they would feel better about staying in an accommodation that had a sustainable certification or label and 59% want to filter their options for properties with such a certification.
