LEFAY UNVEILS THE SUSTAINABILITY MANIFESTO

A new way of sharing our commitment to the planet and to people

Since the brand’s foundation, sustainability has been a fundamental pillar — one that has become, over the years, a thread woven into our DNA. It is reflected in the way we build our resorts, welcome our guests, design our menus, interact with local communities, and breathe. It lives in all the small and significant daily gestures that make the wellbeing of the people who choose to stay with us truly authentic. Today, this vocation takes on a new form: the Sustainability Manifesto.

Manifestos are created to publicly express ideas, principles, and intentions, often with the aim of convincing, inspiring, or mobilizing people. They have existed since ancient times, when they were carved in stone, and have become popular with the advent of movable-type printing. Their purpose is to spread a message.

For years, we have published a Sustainability Report verified by third-party bodies, rich in data, certifications, results and improvement goals. Yet we felt the need for something different: a narrative able to speak to everyone, not only experts, stakeholders or colleagues in the industry. This Manifesto is our most direct voice — an invitation to share values, emotions and visions. A living document, simple and genuine.

We want to be a point of reference for travellers who are conscious of the impact of their choices. Since the company’s foundation, we have undertaken a journey of progressively integrating sustainability into every aspect of our operations. This manifesto sets out the principles that underpin our business strategies, which are geared towards a corporate culture of social and environmental responsibility.

The Manifesto does not replace our Sustainability Report: it accompanies it. It is a window for those wishing to understand why we do what we do, and how each of us, whether guest or employee, can become part of this mission.

It is an invitation to participate: sustainability is a journey undertaken together. With the Manifesto we wish to encourage our guests, partners and team, to play an active role in this change, sharing ideas, experiences and new ways of embracing conscious wellbeing.

We have identified ten key chapters to illustrate everything we put into practice for sustainability: discover them all in our new manifesto, now available online here.
