Four interventions are planned, for a total investment of 44 million euro.

In Arzachena, the intervention involves the refurbishment of a hotel. All the interventions in question are aimed for tourism development and fall within the regulatory limitations set by the regional landscape plan currently in force.

«The intervention, which in addition to creating 54 new jobs will have an important impact on the indirect economy, has the objective of strengthening the accommodation offer and additional services - says Paci - with a significant impact on the entire supply chain in compliance with the town planning regulations in force ". As the Vice-President of the Region explains, "The Ministry for Economic Development and the Regional Government have decided to promote and co-finance this development contract because they consider it relevant for strengthening the productive and economic fabric. We intervene on existing structures to make them more suitable for tourist needs, protecting the environment and with the aim of lengthening the season and increasing the flow of visitors. This is an indispensable strategy for making tourism a true driving force for development throughout Sardinia ».
