Villa Cattani Stuart is a 17th-century villa-hotel set on Pesaro’s gentle hills, wrapped in olive groves and Italian gardens, with the Adriatic just a short drive away. It’s ideal for travellers who want a seaside holiday but prefer the charm of a historic residence: quiet mornings, a sea-view pool, and that reassuring, well-run feeling you only get in a family-owned place.

You come for beach time and sea air, then return to a villa atmosphere — space, greenery, and a slower rhythm — with Pesaro’s culture, Urbino’s Renaissance beauty and Gradara’s storybook castle all within easy reach.

Travel planning

7  nights sharing a Superior Room with balcony

Daily breakfast

Fully comprehensive car hire arranged at the airport

Bologna + Pesaro – cultured city energy first, then villa-calm and beach days on the Adriatic.

Ravenna + Pesaro – mosaic masterpieces, then a restorative villa base near the sea.

Who It Suits Best

Couples and grown-up travellers who want the Adriatic, but prefer a historic residence setting over a busy beachfront strip.

Guests who enjoy beach days, then value peace, greenery and a beautiful return “home” in the evening.

At 21 m², these are the practical, good-value choice: soundproofed, air-conditioned, and designed for simple comfort after beach time or day trips.

At 24 m², brighter and more “holiday-minded”, with a balcony that opens onto the greenery and the villa’s panoramic terrace atmosphere.

At 30 m², the most spacious category — ideal if you like a little breathing room, a slower in-room rhythm, and a more settled feel for longer stays.

Breakfast: Included; a generous sweet-and-savoury spread with house-made cakes and carefully chosen local ingredients.

Lunch: Typically light and flexible — think beach lunches in Pesaro or easy bites nearby (we’ll point you to the right spots for your style).

Dinner: The hotel does not run a full evening restaurant service, so dinners become part of the local experience — with nearby options and Pesaro’s scene a short hop away.

A highlight is Ristorante La Vecchia Cantina, a well-regarded local restaurant specialising in regional cooking, just a pleasant 15-minute walk from the villa.
