  • Natural & pure
    Our water comes directly from a pure natural spring and flows fresh from the tap – guaranteed drinkable and full of natural quality. Here you enjoy genuine South Tyrolean spring water, straight from the source and without detours.
  • Materials from our homeland
    Stone pine wood and other regional building materials bring nature directly into our house. Together with local producers, we create sustainable cycles that strengthen our region.
  • Renewable energy & heating
    Our woodchip heating runs on timber from the village – it doesn’t get more sustainable than that! Added to this is energy-efficient technology and a clear focus on renewable energy.
  • Clean & clever
    friendly cleaning products help protect both waste systems and waterways.
  • Car-free holidays
    Your car can make itself comfortable in our car park while you explore the area on foot, by bike, on skis or by public transport.
  • Eco-friendly technology
    We’ve converted our lawn mowers and snow blowers to electric operation – for less noise and fewer emissions.
  • Fair working hours
    Continuous working hours benefit not only our team. The environment also gains, since 90% of our employees come from Casies and the surrounding area.
  • Mindful & committed
    Thanks to regular training, our staff are genuine experts when it comes to sustainability. And you? Join in! Start with the small: do you really need a fresh towel every day, or must the bed be changed daily? When you enjoy nature on our hikes, please take your rubbish back to the hotel with you. That way, the landscape stays beautiful – for you, for us, and for everyone who comes after. Thank you very much!
