Cervia and Milano Marittima are like two sides of the same coin: one is peaceful and laid-back, the other lively, stylish, and chic.

Both offer a high quality of life and plenty to do—perfect for a spring getaway or a summer holiday on the Romagna coast.

WHAT TO SEE IN CERVIA AND MILANO MARITTIMA

Both towns feature long, well-equipped beaches—ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and unwinding. But there’s much more to discover beyond the shoreline.

CERVIA, THE CITY OF WHITE GOLD

Cervia has a long history tied to salt production. Its charming old town invites you to explore cobbled streets, starting from Piazza Garibaldi, with its cathedral and the historic San Michele Tower—once used to defend the town and control the salt trade. 

Nearby, the old salt warehouses could once hold over 23,000 tonnes of salt. The Torre Warehouse, built in 1691, is now home to MUSA – Cervia’s Salt Museum, where visitors can learn about salt’s historical importance and production methods, from ancient times to the modern day.

From there, a walk along the canal is a must. It once served both as a transport route and a link between the saltworks and the sea. Today, it’s lined with cosy bars and traditional seafood restaurants.

Not far from the town centre is Cervia’s Salt Pan, a protected nature reserve and one of the area’s most iconic sights—especially magical at sunset. Home to herons, black-winged stilts and elegant pink flamingos, it can be visited by boat or on foot.

For a true taste of local hospitality, Hotel Commodore is a standout choice.

Right on the seafront, it combines great food, attention to detail, and sleek room design to create a memorable seaside experience.

MILANO MARITTIMA: THE GARDEN CITY BY THE SEA

Elegant and energetic, Milano Marittima was founded in 1912 as a “Garden City” and is known for its art nouveau villas—icons of early 20th-century holiday style. 

Just a short walk from the centre is the town’s centuries-old pine forest, a 32-hectare green oasis perfect for a stroll or a quiet afternoon outdoors.

For shopping and nightlife, head to Viale Matteotti, lined with stylish boutiques and cafés. The avenue leads to the Fountain with Five Columns, a local landmark and popular meeting spot, especially on summer evenings.

To make the most of your stay, check in at Hotel Solemare, a welcoming 3-Star Superior hotel right on the beach.

Family-run and full of Romagna warmth, it offers a relaxed, high-quality experience.

What sets it apart—besides the bright, sea-view rooms and traditional cuisine—is the private beach, directly accessible from the hotel. 

Here you’ll find Peperittima Beach Club, a refined beach venue with a lounge area, restaurant, kids’ play zone, and a space for happy hour and events.

Its elegant design also makes it a perfect spot for weddings and special occasions.

Summer’s just around the corner—Cervia and Milano Marittima are ready to welcome you!
