Casa di Langa: Sustainable Luxury in Piedmont
Nestled in the heart of Piedmont, the Casa di Langa beckons travelers seeking a harmonious blend of luxury and sustainability. Let’s explore this boutique property that opened its doors in June 2021.

Piedmontese Design Meets Sustainability
The 39-room boutique hotel seamlessly weaves traditional Piedmontese design with sustainable practices. Wooden beams, stone walls, and rustic charm create an inviting ambiance. But it’s more than aesthetics; it’s a commitment to the planet.
A Deep Respect for Nature
At Casa di Langa, nature is revered. Solar panels power the property, rainwater is harvested, and local produce graces the dining tables. Sustainability isn’t a buzzword here; it’s a way of life. As you sip Piedmontese wines on the terrace, you’ll know that every sip supports a greener future.

Sustainable Gems: Italy’s Hidden Treasures
The New York Times’ “52 Places for a Changed World” is the guide that highlights places around the world where travel helps be part of the sustainable solution. We are proud that as sustainable incentives are become so important to groups, Italy’s sustainable gems were named in 34th place, 13th and an incredible first place. Come with us on a journey to discover why they are rated so highly:
Chioggia: The “Little Venice” – First place out of 52
Nestled along the Venetian lagoon, Chioggia beckons intrepid travelers. Often overshadowed by its grand neighbor, Venice, Chioggia offers a delightful alternative. Imagine narrow canals, colorful houses, and a slower pace of life. Here, you won’t find crowds; instead, uncover authenticity. As you wander its streets, you become part of a lesser-known story—one that celebrates preservation and community.
Courmayeur: Where Mont Blanc Meets Italian Charm – 13th place
Courmayeur, cradled at the foot of Mont Blanc, exudes Alpine elegance. In this historically French-speaking corner of Italy, a delicate dance unfolds between tourism and conservation. The town’s cobblestone streets lead to cozy cafés, where locals share tales of snowy peaks and glacial valleys. Here, sustainability isn’t a buzzword; it’s a way of life. As you all sip espresso with a view of Mont Blanc, you’re part of a legacy—a promise to protect nature’s grandeur.
Naples: Stairways to Solar Power – 34th place
Ah, Naples! This vibrant city pulses with life, art, and resilience. In the popular neighborhood of San Giovanni a Teduccio, a remarkable community thrives. They’ve harnessed the sun’s energy, installing 166 solar panels—a beacon of “fair energy.” Families living below the poverty line now enjoy clean, free electricity. And the local authorities? They encourage tourists to explore Naples on foot, winding through its fabulous stairways. Each step becomes a testament to sustainability and solidarity.
