Travel meets Veganuary

Vegan into the new year

Veganuary (made up of the words "vegan" and "January") is also trending in 2021. The term is no coincidence, but is an attempt to introduce people all over the world to a purely plant-based diet. As part of the first month of the year. The initiative was launched in the UK in 2014 and has been a fixture for many at the start of the year ever since. The aim is not only to promote a healthier lifestyle and a general rethink, but also to make a contribution to climate protection. This year, hotels all over the world, from Mauritius to Mallorca, are presenting their vegan offers at the start of the new year, bringing veganuary and travel together.

Plant-based nutrition is playing an important role in more and more hotels. This is mainly because the desire for vegan alternatives has grown over the years. Travelers increasingly appreciate a wide range of culinary options and the variety that vegan cuisine brings to the plate. Hotels participating in Veganuary 2021 include Son Brull Hotel & Spa Mallorca and Velaa Private Island in the Maldives.


Velaa Private Island

Culinary luxury does not always mean lobster or caviar. At Velaa Private Island, the focus is on vegan options and dishes. Head chef Gaushan De Silva creates true works of art from purely plant-based products and the finest ingredients. Risotto with pumpkin, mushrooms and vegan parmesan cheese or vegetable tartare with avocado and green beans. No one will find a vegan diet difficult here. The luxury resort is also home to the largest coral regeneration project in the Maldives and has been able to increase coral growth on the island by several percent since its launch thanks to the successful cultivation and transplantation of corals.
