A COMMITMENT AND A CONCRETE EXAMPLE

TOWARDS A MORE SUSTAINABLE AND ACCESSIBLE FUTURE

As part of the Commitment area, the Sustainability Director promotes the GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourism Council) certification and the GVR (Gabbiani Verdi) protocol, which assess specific areas of environmental and social impact.
The Accessibility Director, on the other hand, works in collaboration with dedicated associations to provide support for people with motor disabilities, promoting inclusive and accessible hospitality for all.

GSTC CERTIFICATION

Our VOIhotels properties in Italy have obtained the GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourism Council) certification, which is committed to promoting sustainability and social responsibility in the tourism sector. Recognized internationally, this certification is based on rigorous assessments to ensure compliance with environmental, social, and economic criteria.

GVR PROTOCOL

In line with the UN Agenda 2030 goals, we have contributed to the creation of the GVR protocol. Developed in collaboration with a Certification Body recognized by Accredia, it assesses the environmental and social impact of hotels. A specialized team conducts on-site inspections to ensure compliance with the required standards.

BARRIER-FREE PROJECT

For selected properties, we provide detailed fact sheets on the destination airport and hotel architecture. Guests with mobility disabilities can independently assess if the property meets their needs before booking. In addition to textual content, each sheet includes around 200 photos showcasing spaces and services.

FOR THE PLANET, FOR ALL PEOPLE

We strive to develop a hospitality model that promotes environmental respect in specific areas of environmental and social impact. At the same time, we work to make our vacations increasingly inclusive by facilitating the removal of barriers. Welcoming people, supporting the local communities we collaborate with, and protecting the environment are, for us, the right way to approach our work.

A CONSCIOUS CHOICE

Environment

Accessibility and inclusiveness

Local taste

An Environmentally Friendly Vacation

We constantly strive to reduce our impact; for example, we use DPlanet, a line of bath products exclusively made for VOIhotels, featuring additive-free and preservative-free formulas that are entirely plastic-free. Thanks to this initiative, in 2024, we prevented the production of more than 800,000 plastic bottles of 30 ml.

Barrier-free holidays

At VOIhotels, accessibility is a priority because we believe that relaxation should be for everyone. That’s why we created the Senza Barriere project, dedicated to people with motor disabilities, and the Celiac Project. In both cases, we collaborate with specialized associations to better understand and meet specific needs.

Quite another taste

With corners dedicated to biological and zero-kilometre products, where possible, we bring to your table all of what is good in an area. In this way, we incentivise the economy of the communities our facilities are located in and, at the same time, enrich the holidays of our guests, who can get to know the typical local health and genuine ingredients of every destination.

FROM WORDS TO DEEDS: GREEN SERVICES AND PRACTICES AT VOI RESORTS

Our aim is to develop hospitality which meets the maximum standards of environmental and social sustainability. How are we achieving this? By making significant ethical choices, supporting communities and enhancing the areas home to our facilities.
