Villaggio Hotel Pineta Petto Bianco is a 4-star base in Ricadi, Italy, set in the C.da Campia area of Santa Maria, where the landscape shifts from countryside to sea.

Check-in runs from 04:00 PM and check-out is at 10:00 AM.
On-site, the seasonal outdoor pool is a straightforward option for a quiet afternoon when you don’t want to head out, and the free beach shuttle helps you get to the coast without turning every day into a logistics exercise.
