MARINA DI SANT'ELMO - PORTO DI ALGHERO

What MARINA DI SANT'ELMO - PORTO DI ALGHERO does

Marina di Sant'Elmo (legally Marina di S. Elmo S.r.l.) operates a 100-berth premium yacht marina in the southern section of Porto di Alghero on the western coast of Sardinia, Italy. Since 2012 it has held a regional concession from the Italian Public Property Agency making it the only facility in the port authorised to moor vessels up to 70 metres, anchoring its positioning around the superyacht and large-yacht segment. The marina is staffed by six employees and provides 24/7 mooring assistance, surveillance, and year-round operations including winter mooring, with dinghies meeting vessels at the port entrance and multilingual support in English, French, Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian.

The core offering is berth rental supported by an integrated ancillary stack: charter of inflatable, motor, and sail boats with or without skipper; yacht concierge (hotel/restaurant bookings, transfers, excursions to Neptune's Caves); galley provisioning and on-board catering; bunkering via on-site pump and tanker partner Testoni Bunker Point; technical support and boatyard services; and courtesy car/vehicle hire through PimaxCar Group. Infrastructure amenities include 220–380V electrical supply, water, Wi-Fi, laundry, waste uplift, fire-prevention systems, and storage. No proprietary technology platform is operated; booking is handled via the company website and the Navily mobile app.

The business model combines recurring berth/mooring revenue (short-stay and long-stay winter contracts) with one-time charter fees, professional services fees for concierge and technical work, and transaction-based revenue from bunkering, provisioning, and vehicle hire commissions. Customer acquisition is primarily direct-to-consumer (website, app, staff contact) with referral flows via ASSO.N.A.T. and the Rete dei Porti della Sardegna. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent, investors, or funding events.
