Ventimiglia’s new marina will have quality facilities for tourism including a residence and hotel complex consisting of a 5-star hotel with 70 rooms and 60 top-of-the-line apartments.
Creating an exciting new tourist hub
The €60 million hotel and residence investment is part of a larger urban redevelopment project encompassing the entire Ventimiglia marina. Work is expected to begin next year and be completed in 2026 on the Borgo del Forte project which is being developed by the Marina Development Corporation (Mdc). The aim being to create a new tourist destination on the city's seafront on the western Ligurian Riviera, with an international reach but an Italian vocation.
A sports and leisure complex
Borgo del Forte Campus will be a large international educational-sports and leisure campus with an important multifunctional area. The complex, which will be open to the public all year, will include an indoor pool, a gym, services, and a club house, as well as a space for indoor and outdoor activities, and tennis courts. The heart of the Campus will be a multi-level building next to the sports centre that will house an international school. A former train depot will be converted into a congress centre and the campus will have access to over 3,000 sqm of parking.
The new hotel will reflect Liguria’s nature and charm
“The new hotel will reflect the Ligurian landscape’s naturalistic appeal and the charm of the upper city with a new port and the elegance of Italian design,” says Giuseppe Noto, CEO of Mdc. Borgo del Forte is contributing to Ventimiglia's overall urban regeneration by reclaiming abandoned areas such as the waterfront for uses such as tourism and sport.”
