Baia Holiday

What Baia Holiday does

Baia Holiday, legally C.V.M.I. srl, is a privately held, family-founded Italian outdoor hospitality company headquartered in Salò, Brescia. Founded in 1974 and operating for nearly fifty years, the company directly owns and manages 15 camping villages and resort properties across Italy (Sardinia, Veneto, Lake Garda, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Lazio, Puglia), Croatia, France, and Spain. The portfolio spans a wide accommodation ladder — from traditional camping pitches for tents, caravans, and campervans, through Design mobile homes, bungalows, lodge tents, and glamping units, to apartments, resort rooms, and a 4-star superior hotel (The Green Park Hotel, Cavallino).

The commercial proposition combines accommodation with on-site amenities: water parks and pools, animation programmes (including dedicated children's clubs across age tiers), sports facilities (diving, sailing, cycling, Padel), pet-friendly infrastructure (in partnership with Monge), SPA and wellness centres, restaurants, and dedicated corporate/event spaces including a 280 m² conference facility near Venice. Booking is executed through the proprietary mybookingsite online platform and a multilingual call-centre network serving Italy, Poland, Austria, and Germany, supplemented by group sales for schools, corporates, and MICE clients (20–500+ persons). Ancillary revenue is generated via bundled ferry bookings (partnerships with Grandi Navi Veloci, Moby Line, Sardinia Ferries, Tirrenia), car rental (Europcar), bundled travel insurance (Garanzia Viaggia Sicuro for stays of 4+ nights), and a €2.90 per-stay environmental contribution.

The business model is a hybrid of (i) accommodation rentals (the dominant revenue stream, seasonal, unit-priced per night) and (ii) on-site ancillary services (F&B, water parks, SPAs, animation, sports). Go-to-market is predominantly direct-to-consumer through the multilingual booking platform and call centres, complemented by travel-agency/tour-operator partnerships, an annual trade-fair presence (CMT, Ferien-Messe, FESPO, F.RE.E, ITB Berlin), and a 2025 strategic partnership with Sunêlia Vacances for European distribution beyond the core Italy-Croatia footprint. The company holds €100,000 share capital (i.v.) and operates with 101–250 employees; revenue, ARR, and bookings data are not publicly disclosed.

Revenue model

1. Accommodation Rentals: Baia Holiday generates the majority of its revenue through the rental of mobile homes, bungalows, lodges, camping pitches, resort rooms, apartments, and glamping tents across 15 properties in Italy, Croatia, France, and Spain. Accommodations are booked directly via the online booking platform or through the call center, with pricing varying by season, property type, and length of stay.
2. On-site ancillary services: Revenue from restaurants, bars, minimarkets, beach services, water parks, spas, sports facilities, and animation programmes at each property. These services are consumed on-site by guests and represent a significant upsell and cross-sell opportunity atop the base accommodation booking.
3. Group and corporate bookings: Tailored group travel packages for schools, corporations, MICE, and incentive groups (minimum 20 persons, up to 400-500 at Roma Capitol), including custom catering, meeting rooms, team-building activities, and preferential rates. Processed through dedicated group inquiry forms with bespoke pricing.
4. Ferry and travel add-ons: Through partnerships with major ferry companies (Grandi Navi Veloci, Moby Line, Sardinia Ferries, Tirrenia), Baia Holiday offers bundled ferry-to-Sardinia packages at preferential rates, generating commission or transaction fees on cross-sell bookings.
