🌿 Sustainable Holidays in Sardinia with RENTAL12 – Eco-Friendly Luxury, Authentic Comfort
At RENTAL12 and AZULIS, sustainability is not a trend – it’s our operating principle. We create
eco-friendly holidays in Sardinia that blend design, comfort, and responsibility. Every apartment, penthouse, and villa we manage reflects a
measurable commitment to a cleaner island and a lighter footprint – without compromising on luxury.
♻️ From Promise to Practice — Our Concrete Eco Actions
- 🏡 Minimum A2 energy rating for all new acquisitions and major renovations (from 2024). We prioritize newly built or fully renovated, energy-efficient homes only.
- ☀️ Solar on all new builds: all new buildings in our pipeline are engineered to include photovoltaic (PV) solar panels for on-site power generation and lower CO₂ impact.
- 🚗 Electrified operations fleet: since Dec 2023 our guest logistics and daily operations run on fully electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles; charging is powered by certified green energy where available. See also our Press page.
- 🔌 EV charging access: partner charging available at Olbia Parking, Via Sassari and across local public networks — ideal for guests arriving by EV.
- 🗑️ Sorted waste & retrieval by RENTAL12: since 2025 we manage waste segregation and collection for guests, removing confusion and maximizing local recycling performance.
- 🧺 Miele Professional laundry in-house: high-efficiency washers/dryers and calibrated ironing systems reduce water/energy use while delivering spotless linens.
- 🪶 Locally produced pillows & textiles: made in Sardinia to cut transport emissions and support regional craftsmanship.
- 🧴 Eco-certified cleaning products + photo-verified cleaning protocol for transparent, impeccable hygiene.
- 💡 LED lighting & smart climate control (sensors, programmable settings) in every apartment for real-world consumption cuts.
- 💧 Water-saving taps & dual-flush toilets standard across our portfolio.
📈 Impact, Metrics & Roadmap
- 2024→ A2 minimum adopted for all new/renovated homes; legacy units upgraded on a rolling plan.
- 2025→ Centralized waste sorting + guest education cards (EN/IT/DE/FR/NL) to boost recycling quality.
- 2026→ PV integration on all new-builds delivered from 2026 onward; battery readiness where feasible.
- Ongoing→ Supply chain localization (textiles, joinery, stone, maintenance) to reduce transport miles and support local jobs.
💚 Caring for Sardinia, Every Day
Sardinia is one of the world’s celebrated regions for longevity and slow living. From Olbia’s old town to the beaches of Golfo Aranci and the
Costa Smeralda, we operate with deep respect for nature and culture. Our eco journey includes the small details too: low-VOC paints, fewer plastics, digital guidebooks over paper, and partnerships with local producers.
“To truly enjoy Sardinia is to respect its nature, its rhythm, and its people.” –
Floriana & Kristina, RENTAL12
🌍 How We Help Guests Travel Responsibly
- 🛒 We encourage guests to shop locally (markets, dairies, wineries) and highlight makers close to each home.
- 💧 From 2025 we provide reusable bottles & cool bags to reduce single-use plastics on beach days.
- ☀️ Beach kit included (towels, parasol, cool bag with reusable ice packs) to limit disposable purchases.
- ♻️ Zero guesswork for bins: we handle sorting and collection so guests can enjoy their stay while still protecting the island.
🏖️ Sustainability Meets Comfort — The AZULIS Philosophy
Every detail of the AZULIS by RENTAL12 collection — from the upcoming AZULIS Clubhouse in Olbia to the villas Athos and Aramis in Golfo Aranci —
is designed to balance architectural beauty with ecological awareness. Expect CREO kitchens, natural textures, durable finishes, and calm lighting that elevate well-being while standing the test of time.
With dedicated in-house cleaning & laundry teams, an electrified transport fleet, and premium eco materials, we maintain five-star standards and a minimal footprint — even in peak season.
