MarePineta Resort ★★★★★

Mare Pineta literally means “pine forest by the sea”, and the stunning MarePineta Resort certainly lives up to its name. Surrounded by sweeping vistas of pines and less than five minutes’ walk from the warm sands of the Adriatic, the resort is a perfect haven for relaxation. Inside, the welcome bottle of wine is the icing on the cake for both Superior and Premium rooms. The décor is sophisticated black and white, with graceful arches incorporating the historic architecture of the building into the contemporary design. But the resort is far from monochrome, and your stay is sure to be brightened by every colour under the sun.

Red… are the clay courts of the famous MarePineta Tennis Club, offering courses for all abilities.

Orange… are the city lights, reflected in the glassy waters of the canals by night.

Yellow… are the sunlit sands of the beach, a spot for relaxing, swimming, or enjoying the outstanding food at the beach restaurant.

Green… is the huge expanse of the great pine forest surrounding the area – don’t miss out on a walk, bike ride or horse ride through the spectacular Pineta.

Blue… is the huge outdoor hotel swimming pool, perfect for a midday cool-off, or just to relax in a shaded deckchair by its sapphire waters.

Purple… is the sunset over the nearby salt-flats, where salt is still produced using the traditional method.

Pink… are the flamingos native to the region. See these spectacular birds in the wild at the salt-flats, or from the wonderful viewing spots over the great lagoon at Comacchio.

In the beautifully refurbished hotel, the overall air of contemporary sophistication and style is a wonderfully luxurious experience in the midst of the thriving city. From the beautiful gardens to the sumptuous rooms, Hotel MarePineta is the perfect escape for a holiday of sport or relaxation.
