Lefay Resorts & Residences was born from the vision of the entrepreneurial couple Domenico Alcide and Liliana Leali in 2006, after the success of the Air Dolomiti, founded in 1989 and sold to Lufthansa in 2003. The first jewel in the Lefay Collection, Lefay Resort & SPA Lago di Garda opened in 2008 in Gargnano and won more than 100 international awards in 14 years, ranking as one of the world’s top SPA Destinations. Opened in the ski area of Madonna di Campiglio in 2019, Lefay Resort & SPA Dolomiti has been acknowledged in a short time with more than 19 international awards. It marked the Group’s entry into the ‘Serviced Branded Residences’ segment, the first example within a Spa Destination in Italy. Consistent with the values of well-being and sustainability, both Resorts are totally carbon neutral and certified by the world’s most reputable organisations. In 2022, the Group announced its first Resort in management contract abroad, in Crans-Montana, Switzerland. Among future projects, there is also the completion of the Italian portfolio of three owned properties, with a third Resort located in Tuscany, in Montalcino; construction works will start in the near future.
