BelleHavens
Description
BelleHavens is a luxury destination club in which members share a portfolio of magnificent vacation homes around the world. The Club provides travel planning and concierge service and access to resort amenities. BelleHavens was the first club to offer an equity membership in which members have an ownership stake in the Club. To join, members pay a one-time deposit used to purchase the homes and annual dues to cover property upkeep and member service. For more information, please visit www.bellehavens.com.
Commitment
In early 2007, BelleHavens launched our GreenHome initiative to cut energy use throughout our portfolio of luxury homes throughout the world. We are offsetting what we could not reduce with Carbonfund.org through a combination of energy efficiency, renewable energy and reforestation projects. Our energy conservation efforts include using compact florescent light bulbs, front load washers and dryers, xeriscaping, recycling where available, LCD monitors, electrical strips and liquid soap dispensers. We look forward to continuing to grow our conservation efforts and to making offset donations every year.
Quote
“BelleHavens is dedicated to demonstrating that luxury travel and energy conservation are not mutually exclusive. We aim to cut our emissions throughout our portfolio of luxury homes and offset what we can’t reduce. We selected Carbonfund.org for our offset efforts because they are a perfect fit with our goals.” – Darin Gilson, BelleHavens Founder and CEO
