Riva del Sole Resort & Spa

Riva del Sole Resort & Spa is an eco-luxury retreat on Tuscany’s pristine Maremma coast, dedicated to sustainable hospitality that respects and preserves nature. Inspired by the Scandinavian eco-sustainability ethos, Riva del Sole Resort & Spa has built its “Green Philosophy” around the principles of reducing, reusing, and recycling. This philosophy not only shapes the resort’s operations but also engages guests through eco-friendly guidelines that raise awareness about environmental impact. With a commitment to minimizing waste and pollution, Riva del Sole has implemented rigorous water conservation measures, energy-saving policies, and sustainable transportation options, such as promoting bicycles and electric vehicles throughout the resort. 

In line with its green mission, the resort’s waste management system is a model of environmental stewardship. Riva del Sole operates an “ecological island” on-site, which carefully sorts and recycles everything from cooking oils to office materials. Energy-efficient LED lighting illuminates the property, and solar panels help reduce the resort’s carbon footprint. Electric golf cars, vans, and courtesy vehicles further reduce emissions, allowing guests to explore the property and surrounding areas sustainably. 

Riva del Sole’s commitment extends to its staff welfare, pioneering initiatives within the Italian tourism sector. Since 2016, the resort has offered seasonal workers performance bonuses and health benefits—a first in the industry. This forward-thinking approach to employee care includes productivity incentives and a comprehensive benefits package, aligning workforce goals with the resort’s sustainability objectives. 

Through these initiatives, Riva del Sole offers a truly unique experience, inviting guests to immerse themselves in the beauty of Tuscany while leaving a positive impact on the environment.
