I have just checked into this B&B today (Guilia Room) and wanted to make sure I leave a review for the fabulous host, Dominico- he has given me so much useful information for my long stay in Pescara. The apartment has everything I could ever need- full kitchen, private bath, a shared balcony and even laundry right next door. Such a nice touch to see jars of cookies and baked goods with condiments and an espresso machine at the entrance. Dominico also brought over some orange juice and yogurt for me. The apartment is close to many great restaurants and also very close to the boardwalk and beach. They have an umbrella at Saturno Club which you can pay a little extra to use during your beach days. Dominico sent me a list of recommended places to eat fresh fish, local cuisine, arrosticini (meat on a stick) and Pizza. He also suggested I check out Sulmona which is an ancient city about 1 hour away by train, and Chieti which is also an ancient city about 20 minutes away by bus. I may rent a bike while I am here to help me get around during the day (here for business). I'll update this review toward the end of my stay.
By the way, if you are trying to figure out an affordable way to get to Pescara from Rome and you do not want to fly, Prontobus is the best! Only 21 Euro & very easy ~4hr ride with only a few stops depending on the time of day. International flights arrive in terminal 3- grab your bag from baggage claim and the bus will arrive in the bus area about 1/2 hour prior to departure, its big and yellow- you can't miss it. Make reservation in advance. read more
