Acting for the energy sobriety in our establishments
At Odalys Vacances, we have deployed a vast energy sobriety programme that concerns our establishments as well as our headquarters.
In residences that welcome you, we are adopting or renovating less energy-intensive solutions: installation of LEDs, aerators to reduce water consumption, limitation of heating and air conditioning temperatures...
Every action counts for an environmentally friendly stay.
Our actions favouring biodiversity
Located in the heart of the wonderful French regions, our establishments must preserve local biodiversity and thus support the balance of our ecosystem.
Acting with expert partners
In more than 50 establishments within our Group, we have set up a partnership with Les Dorloteurs d’Abeille in order to work towards the protection of pollinators and creation of new population areas.
Our collaboration with the Ligue de Protection des Oiseaux (Birdlife protection league) also allows us to protect biodiversity in our establishments.
Revegetation with endemic species
In collaboration with landscape gardeners and ecologists, we are redevelopping our green spaces with local endemic species.
This approach contributes to local biodiversity and creates natural habitats for flora and fauna.
Working together for cleaner mountains
With Mountain Riders, we share the love of the mountains and the urgency of the preservation of the fragile ecosystem.
This is why we are committed to reducing pollution and making our mountains cleaner.
On top of waste collections, we participate in the study of this pollution: without good knowledge, no diagnosis or study of the evolution of this type of pollution is possible.
Together, we act to protect these fragile ecosystems and keep them in good condition for future generations.
Our solidarity initiatives
Bringing solidarity to life within society, a strong commitment that has helped to bring smiles to many children's faces and offer holidays to the most disadvantaged.
Promoting access to holidays for all
We support the associations "Je pars, tu pars, il part" and the Fondation Action Enfance to help allowing everyone to enjoy a holiday. These partnerships aim to offer holidays to disadvantaged families and children, thus contributing to their well-being and healthy development.
These long-standing partnerships have enabled hundreds of children and families to go on holiday.
Participating in solidarity collections
Every year, Odalys Vacances organises solidarity collections in favour of children and the most vulnerable people.
Whether for Christmas, for food collections or other essential needs, our actions are dedicated to providing support and comfort to those who need it most.
Our steps to bring French territories to life
The French territory has an exceptional heritage and is full of local companies to discover. At Odalys Vacances, we are committed to promoting them to bring our economic and cultural ecosystems to life.
Boosting local ecosystems
We establish partnerships with local economic and cultural stakeholders, such as tourist offices, ski shops or ski schools for example.
Our collaboration with Manawa allows our holidaymakers to book outdoor and adventure activities that highlight the beauty of local destinations.
These collaborations offer our visitors an authentic and enriching experience of local heritage.
Welcoming local stakeholders
Our residences regularly host local markets, allowing visitors to discover and enjoy local products.
We also promote activities to discover local heritage, thus offering a unique cultural and gastronomic immersion.
