Safely managed drinking water, Italy, 2024: The World Health Organization reports 97 per cent of the population nationally using a safely managed drinking water service. This describes the country, not this property, and says nothing about what reaches a guest room here. It is recorded because it is the background against which a property's own treatment is worth publishing.
Regional data is context about the location. It does not establish conditions inside a room.
Ambient PM2.5 and PM10 near Gargnano, Lake Garda, Italy, 30 days to 2026-08-17: Modelled ambient air over this location averaged 8.5 micrograms per cubic metre of PM2.5 and 13.1 of PM10 across the 720 hours to 2026-08-17, peaking at 23.6 PM2.5. The World Health Organization annual guideline for PM2.5 is 5. This is the outdoor air over the area, modelled rather than measured on site, and it is not a reading of the air inside any room.

Air Ecology

Water Integrity
The resort's 2025 Eco Book states that in 2024 single use glass courtesy water bottles in the suites were replaced with reusable glass bottles of micro filtered water sourced at zero kilometres, with no filtration grade or micron rating published.
In their words: “Nel 2024, Lefay ha ulteriormente rafforzato il proprio impegno sostituendo le bottiglie d'acqua di cortesia in vetro monouso presenti nelle Suite con bottiglie in vetro riutilizzabili di acqua microfiltrata a chilometro 0, riducendo gli scarti di vetro e le emissioni dovute al trasporto”
The resort factsheet publishes the indoor thalassotherapy pool La Luna nel Lago at 37 degrees with a salinity of 10 percent, alongside heated indoor and outdoor saline pools. No laboratory, instrument or analyst is named against the figure.
In their words: “Lago Salino "La Luna nel Lago" 37° – Salinità 10%”

The operator's 2024 sustainability report states that the pool filters at both Lefay resorts were rebuilt in 2023, replacing sand filters with recycled glass filters. The statement covers the operator's two resorts rather than this building alone.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “In addition, in 2023 the revamp project of the pool filters of both resorts was completed. Filtration systems are essential for maintaining optimal water characteristics and reduce the volume of backwashing water of the swimming pool. Initially equipped with sand filters, they are now equipped with recycled glass filters, saving both water and energy.”
The operator's 2024 sustainability report states that all water withdrawals come from the mains water supply system, with no treatment train described between the mains and the guest.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “All water withdrawals come from the water supply system”
Light Rhythm
The Eco Book states that exterior luminaires direct their beam only where it is needed, without spill. No fixture, shielding rating or overnight dimming schedule is named.
In their words: “mentre le zone esterne sono caratterizzate da corpi illuminanti che indirizzano il fascio di luce solo dove serve, senza dispersioni.”
The Eco Book states that daytime lighting is controlled by dedicated software fed by a dusk sensor, reducing artificial lighting levels when daylight is sufficient. It is published as an energy measure, names no product, and publishes no colour temperature, flicker performance or circadian specification.
In their words: “in particolare la gestione dell'illuminazione diurna è gestita da un software dedicato che riceve costantemente le informazioni della luce naturale da un sensore crepuscolare.”
EMF Harmony
Not published. We looked and found nothing on this, which is a gap in what we could read, not a finding about the building.
Materials and Textiles
The Eco Book names the interior materials by type: olive wood for the parquet, Italian walnut for the furniture and red Verona marble for the washbasin top and the bath surround.
In their words: “il legno d'ulivo per il parquet, noce nazionale per gli arredi e marmo rosso di Verona per piano lavabo e vasca.”
The Eco Book states that the resorts' laundries have been converted to ozone washing, described as sanitising textiles at low temperature and reducing detergent use. The sentence is written across the operator's resorts rather than this building alone, and no detergent product is named.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “le lavanderie dei Resort sono state convertite al lavaggio all'ozono. Questa tecnologia, garantisce un'igienizzazione profonda dei tessuti a basse temperature, riducendo il consumo di detersivi e abbreviando i tempi di lavaggio.”

In their words: “Our extra virgin olive oils are produced on Lefay's farms on Lake Garda and in Tuscany.”
The operator's 2024 sustainability report states that the Cuvee and Monocultivar Gargna oils are certified organic by CCPB, a named third party certification and control body. The statement covers the Lefay oils rather than this building.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “The Cuvée and Monocultivar Gargnà oils are certified organic by the CCPB, certification and control body for agricultural and 'nofood' products in the field of organic, ecofriendly and sustainable production.”
The Eco Book states that more than 60 percent of food purchasing turnover comes from local suppliers. The figure is self published with no auditor, method or verification body named against it.
In their words: “oltre il 60% del fatturato per prodotti alimentari proviene da fornitori locali”
Biophilic and Healing Design
The Eco Book publishes the design intent, stating that the designers took their reference from the limonaie, the lemon houses typical of the Alto Garda, characterised by stone and timber pillars, which the buildings reproduce.
In their words: “Per questo i nostri progettisti, con grande umiltà, si sono guardati intorno e si sono ispirati alle limonaie, costruzioni tipiche dell'Alto Garda, caratterizzate da pilastri in pietra e legno”
The architect is named and his brief is published in trade press: Hugo Demetz states the project had to hold to wide spaces, daylight and the use of natural materials, and to architectural integration with local materials.
In their words: “Architect Hugo Demetz said the project had to be consistent with the concepts of new luxury (space, nature, silence, discretion instead of opulence, abundance, and heaviness), global well-being (wide spaces, harmony, daylight, use of natural materials), and respect for the environment (architectural integration, local materials, and energy efficiency).”

In their words: “Bright and spacious, the Prestige Junior Suites are located on the ground floor and open onto the gardens, directly overlooking to Lake Garda.”
Sound and Sensory Ecology
The Eco Book states that the low temperature radiant heating and cooling system in the ceilings and floors generates no noise that could disturb a guest. It names the method and the reason, and publishes no decibel figure, no measured background level and no acoustic separation rating.
In their words: “grazie a questo sistema non viene generato nessun rumore che potrebbe risultare di disturbo”
Trade press describes the radiant systems in the floor and ceiling of rooms and common areas as silent. No decibel figure, test method or instrument accompanies the description.
In their words: “Silent radiant systems in the floor and ceiling of rooms and common areas ensure maximum comfort.”

Disclosures
Compare what each stay offers, how it was checked and what still needs confirming. Assessment labels describe the review, not an overall quality rating.
A low score means a property has not published information. It does not mean the property is unsafe, unhealthy or poorly run.
A score describes proof: what a stay publishes and, on a Human Garage certified stay, what our assessor checked in person. It is not a quality rating of the property. Listings are free, and any commercial relationship is disclosed.
