Glamping in Romagna 2026: Guide to the Best Sites, Prices and Where to Book
Glamping — a blend of "glamorous" and "camping" — is the answer for those who love the idea of camping but want to sleep in a real bed, have a private bathroom, and wake up with breakfast already waiting. In Romagna, the trend has exploded in recent years: the Riviera and the Romagna hinterland offer some of Italy's best glamping experiences, from coastal dunes and pine forests to vineyards and medieval hilltop villages.

Best zones for glamping in Romagna
Coast: between pine forest and sea
The Riviera's luxury campsites have invested heavily in glamping structures in recent years. The Cervia pine forest and the Cesenatico pine forest are the most evocative areas: glamping accommodation among the pines, 5–10 minutes from the beach.
Advantages: direct beach access, pools, on-site restaurants. Disadvantages: busier in peak season, higher prices.
Hinterland: hills and vineyards
Inland Romagna — between Bertinoro, Predappio, Brisighella and the Montone and Bidente valleys — offers glamping immersed in the hilly landscape. Here you sleep among Sangiovese vineyards, with views over the rocks and total silence.
Advantages: absolute peace, unique scenery, wine and food experiences. Disadvantages: difficult to get around without a car, further from the sea.
The Po Delta
The Delta area between Comacchio and Ravenna offers glamping in unique environments: wetlands, flamingos, lagoons. A completely different experience from the classic seaside holiday.
