Problem & Context
No platform existed for tourists to search and book, and boat owners had no digital tools of their own.
A dedicated nautical marketplace connecting tourists with local boat owners across the Amalfi Coast.
The challenge was
No centralized platform for boat tours and rentals on the Amalfi Coast
Booking process was entirely offline — no instant confirmation, no digital payments
Boat owners had no tools to manage availability, pricing, or occupancy
Project-based collaboration
Full product design and development from scratch — no existing codebase
Two-sided marketplace: separate flows for tourists and boat owners
Admin layer required for platform operators to monitor and manage the business
Client Goal
Launch the first branded boat tour marketplace for the Amalfi Coast
Enable tourists to search, compare, and book boat tours or rentals in minutes
Give boat owners a professional host portal to list boats and manage bookings
Solution
Built a full two-sided marketplace on Bubble.io — consumers book, owners manage. Designed a clean, mobile-first UX inspired by coastal aesthetics (navy, white, photography-led). Delivered a full admin dashboard with bookings, revenue, occupancy, and channel analytics
