OUR PRINCIPLES
Portibi Farm

Electricity
We minimize the need for electricity by having cross ventilation and natural kirai roofing that insulates us from the heat of the day, which means we don't need air conditioning. All our guest houses are solar powered to lower our electrical load and to help our guests understand how much energy they use day-to-day.
