An exclusive resort implementing sustainable practices from day one

From the early stages of design at the Lefay Resort and Spa, sustainability has been at the forefront. The hotel believes that you can create something both beautiful and eco-friendly at the same time, which is why they implemented ‘bio-architecture into the construction of the building.

The resort's unique design ensures that it integrates seamlessly with the landscape, and the building itself has a minimal visual impact, utilizing natural stone and sustainably produced wood pillars.

The resort's exterior is not the only green feature the hotel has to offer. the design team has implemented energy-saving systems such as a biomass plant, a micro-turbine cogeneration plant, and an absorption cooling system. Each component works together to minimize the amount of energy the resort produces from non-renewable sources and has decreased carbon levels by 1,130 tons per year.

The resort’s management shares their philosophy, “Exclusivity means doing something no one else has thought of doing, creating something for the few that does everyone good.”

Visitors of the resort will also find that water-saving and waste management policies are set in place to reduce further the overall carbon emitted and help protect the health of the surrounding environment.
