This is the second part of our series “Tips for a sustainable weekend getaway”. A new green idea awaits you on our blog every three weeks!
Are you flirting with the vegan lifestyle or already living it? How about a completely vegan weekend in South Tyrol? Perfect for relaxing, trying it out or maybe showing your partner how diverse a vegan lifestyle can be 😉 South Tyrol is home to the first completely vegan hotel in Italy. It not only offers climate-friendly cuisine but also great activities for couples or active vacationers.
LA VIMEA – A completely vegan hotel in the town of Naturno
LA VIMEA, located in the tourist town of Naturno in Val Venosta, South Tyrol, is the ideal place to relax and take some time off. The adults-only hotel offers daily yoga sessions and a wellness area complete with a saltwater pool, natural swimming pond, sauna and Ayurvedic treatments.
A special feature is the vegan theme. Here, vegans will find a hotel where they won’t have to ask about ingredients or find bacon served at the table next to them. As for the cuisine, you can relax and enjoy the surprising creations of Chef Luca Sordi. But there’s more! For the team of LA VIMEA, vegan doesn’t only apply to food, but to all other aspects of life. For example, the furnishings are made entirely of plant-based and cruelty-free materials. You won’t find leather or sheepskin here.
Veganism is more climate-friendly
One benefit of a vegan lifestyle: It tends to be more climate-friendly. According to the German Federal Environmental Agency, a vegan diet produces about 40% less CO2 emissions than a conventional diet that includes dairy and meat products. Of course, this doesn’t apply to every single meal, but to the diet as a whole. To make the eco-advantage perfect, LA VIMEA also sources its food as regionally and seasonally as possible.
LA VIMEA weekend specials
The vegan hotel offers some special deals tailored to weekend stays. What we particularly appreciate: South Tyrol is easily accessible by train from Germany, Austria and Switzerland. So nothing stands in the way of a sustainable and vegan weekend. 🙂
Romantic vegan getaway
2 Nights | 2 People | 999 Euro | Offer valid from March 29 through November 3, 2024
LA VIMEA has recently launched a new package for couples. It’s called “Romantic Vegan Getaway“:
When you arrive on Friday, one of the most beautiful double rooms with balcony will be waiting for you. And to start the weekend off right, you will receive a welcome gift of organic vegan chocolate and a bottle of Prosecco Rosé (with or without alcohol). Afterwards, perhaps a refreshing dip in the saltwater pool or the natural swimming pond.
Between 5:30 pm and 6:45 pm, an aperitif platter with small snacks and a signature cocktail or mocktail is available – even in your room upon request. For dinner, dress up and enjoy the restaurant’s vegan cuisine. Afterwards, especially on warm summer evenings, we recommend a short evening stroll through the village of Naturno, with its 6,000 inhabitants, to enjoy the special atmosphere.
On Saturday, an active outdoor experience awaits you. The hotel will provide you with two modern e-bikes for the whole day. Breakfast will be served at the hotel and 2 picnic lunches will be packed for your bike tour.

After a day of activity, dinner at the restaurant will taste even better. Especially if you relax at the spa first.
On Sunday, you will check out late, giving you time to relax after breakfast. Perhaps you would like to start the day with a yoga class on the sundeck in front of the hotel. Community yoga is an integral part of the hotel here. And as an extra highlight you can enjoy the forest sauna for one hour. At 15:00 your journey home begins.
Active Vegan Getaway
