Costa Smeralda, stagione lunga: obiettivo Natale

🏖️ Mario Ferraro, CEO of Smeralda Holding, aims to extend Costa Smeralda's season through nature, glamour, and events, potentially closing in late November with openings at Christmas and New Year. The 2024 season saw a significant increase in tourism at the four iconic hotels Cala di Volpe, Romazzino, Pitrizza, and Cervo, particularly from American and Middle Eastern visitors. Occupancy levels reached unprecedented highs. Content strategy and after-dinner offerings aim to attract younger clients, with a lounge open until 3 AM. Hotel Cala di Volpe recently completed a refurbishment started in 2018, and Romazzino and Pitrizza are now under LVMH, branded as Belmond and Cheval Blanc. Despite these changes, Costa Smeralda intends to remain a niche destination, focusing on high-quality offerings, with even the most expensive Harrods suite being difficult to book in peak season.
