Sea, nature, art cities
La Valdese Diaconia operates eight facilities located in Piedmont, Liguria, Veneto, Tuscany and Lazio. Although the Waldensian Houses differ in the type of services offered, architectural features and history, they share three main goals.
What differentiates Waldensian Homes from traditional facilities
Here, in a nutshell, is what makes Waldensian Homes special accommodations:
- WELCOME – Offering you a beautiful, clean and welcoming space is the least we can do. In addition, we seek (discreetly) and offer a relationship with the guest; we cherish theencounter with the other or the other.
- SOLIDARITY – With profits we support the educational and social welfare activities of the Waldensian Diaconia;
- RESPONSIBLE TOURISM – Waldensian Homes joins theItalian Association of Responsible Tourism and champion the“principles of social and economic justice with full respect for the environment and cultures that underlie responsible tourism.”
