Breakfast

We pay great attention to breakfast time to make the day even more enjoyable.

Every morning, we prepare a lavish buffet, served on our spacious terrace in the summer and in the breakfast room during winter.

The buffet features local sweet specialties such as tarts, pastries, and various cakes, depending on the season.

In addition, we offer croissants, fresh bread, white and whole grain toast, locally made jams with natural pectin, butter, Nutella, fruit juices, yogurt, and fresh fruit.

Upon request, we provide fresh cold cuts, a hot buffet with eggs and bacon, gluten-free options, and vegan breakfast.

Beverages include coffee, milk macchiato, cappuccino, barley coffee, decaf, and ginseng, all served at the table.

All products are genuine and of high quality, served directly to your table.

Hey from Annachiara

Member since May 2016 | 26,345 hits

After years of working in the tourism and hospitality industry while studying, I dedicated myself to realizing my dream of opening a Bed and Breakfast.

At the beginning of this project, during the renovation of the property, my goal was to create a B&B with hotel-like amenities, ensuring that our guests would lack for nothing during their stay.

With a focus on personalization, warmth, and originality, I strive to provide more than just a traditional hotel experience.

With love, availability, attention to detail (sometimes even too much), brightness, and friendliness, each day and every guest presents a new experience, and I approach my work with passion.

What I cherish most about my job is the welcoming moment, meeting people from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and ages. In fact, many friendships have formed through my work.

Chiara was very kind. Self check-in without problems. Large and clean sea view room. More than fair price. Breakfast? No, don't call it breakfast, it would belittle a series of delicacies and goodies that give you all the energy to face the coast of the trabocchi by bike. If there will be an opportunity, we will definitely come back!

B&B very clean, tastefully decorated with brand new furniture. Room with large bathroom with excellent shower, working and quiet air conditioners, large terrace and great breakfast. Very kind and helpful hostess. I recommend it to those who want to move around to visit the various beaches of the beautiful Costa dei Trabocchi and take a trip to the Tremiti Islands.

Good location: between Pescara and Ortona, in front of Lido Riccio, very close to the beach. Well-kept and very clean rooms, spacious and new bathroom, efficient and silent air conditioning, very comfortable mattress. Good arrangement for breakfast, which is abundant and customizable. Very kind and helpful owner. If we come back to the area, we will definitely return. Cala Chiara.

We had a very good time. The lady was very kind. The structure is very clean. Overall, I consider myself satisfied. However, there are some problems that may be bothersome. Our room had a sea view, unfortunately on that side there are the road and the railway. The noise at certain times was significant. With a hillside room the problem should be solved. To this, when we were there, the barking of a family's dog staying at the property added. As far as I'm concerned, dogs should only be allowed if they don't bark. When they bark, they really become a problem. The third problem is exiting the parking lot. The slope is such that you have to exit at a low speed, but this increases the risk of an accident since you immediately enter a high-traffic road. But overall, I repeat, I am satisfied. The most annoying thing was the barking of the dog. Just when we left the property, the dog was there barking. Well, I have to admit that I was happy to leave because of that dog.

The answer from the host:
Buona sera, La ringraziamo per la sua opinione e per le note favorevoli, ma ci dispiace apprendere che la sua esperienza non è stata del tutto positiva. Normalmente siamo noti per la nostra eccezionale attenzione ai dettagli, puntiamo sempre a offrire un grande servizio ai nostri clienti, quindi se ci avesse fatto notare le difficoltà durante il suo soggiorno in struttura avremmo provveduto immediatamente a offrire delle alternative, per rendere il suo soggiorno ancora più piacevole. Le camere vista colle sono più silenziose di quelle vista mare, per soddisfare una sua richiesta le è stata data una camera vista mare, comunque durante il vostro soggiorno avremmo potuto cambiarle la stanza e darle una vista colle. Il cane che ha soggiornato in struttura durante il suo soggiorno, non veniva lasciato mai solo in camera e nel caso iniziasse ad abbaiare veniva subito richiamato, ma nel caso fossimo stati avvertiti del disturbo che creava il quattro zampe nostro ospite avremmo subito cercato di trovare una soluzione. Noi avvisiamo sempre i nostri clienti del dislivello presente all’uscita del nostro parcheggio, se questo può creare difficoltà l’auto può essere rimessa in garage, con un uscita diversa dall’uscita del parcheggio. Ringraziandola di nuovo le auguriamo buona serata. Annachiara B&B Cala Chiara.

The rooms and common areas are furnished with new, beautiful, and functional furniture. Very convenient the possibility to use the kitchen and the common area. Very useful private parking. Excellent cleanliness. Beaches (equipped beaches or free but very clean and not crowded) easily reachable on foot. Coves (e.g. Ripari di Giobbe, Punta di AcquaBella) just a few minutes away by car. Breakfast in the morning with excellent homemade sweets. Very helpful and kind managers.

Welcoming, order, and cleanliness of the rooms are excellent.\n\nSuitable for both couples and families with children for the possibility of using the kitchen and the common area, adjacent to the rooms, where you can prepare and consume small meals.\n\nYou receive the right advice on how to move around Ortona and where to have lunch or dinner from the owner AnnaChiara who, with courtesy but also discretion, willingly converses with her guests in the morning in front of a delicious, rich and varied breakfast.\n\nA base to spend days at the beach (on the sandy beach right in front or in the various coves along the Ortona waterfront a few minutes away from the property), or on a trip to the Maiella.

Without a doubt, an excellent Bed and Breakfast where the owner strives to the maximum to ensure that the guest is satisfied from arrival and throughout the stay. Excellent welcome and availability combined with a healthy and friendly dialectic make AnnaChiara a nice hostess. Dispenser of useful information and advice to make a good stay enjoyable for her guests. The rooms and common areas are very clean and well maintained. The breakfast in the morning is excellent and abundant in both sweet and savory, variable according to the guest's habits and needs. The location of the structure is very convenient and strategic and the private parking is an additional plus. Definitely a Bed and Breakfast to visit even if passing through for just one night. Thanks to AnnaChiara for her cordiality and sympathy.

B&B Cala Chiara highly recommended, for the quality-price ratio and for the proximity to the sea. The owner Chiara was very kind and explained in detail everything that could help us fully enjoy the weekend. Inside everything was new and very clean, the free use of the kitchen was really appreciated.

A sincere thank you for the exquisite welcome we received during our stay at the B&B, clean environment, tastefully furnished and what breakfasts. To say the least fantastic. Thanks to Chiara and her mom for all the attention, for their warmth that made us feel like we were "family" also on behalf of our dog Lilla. Recommended. By Erasmo and Rossana.

We stayed for two nights and had a great time. As soon as you enter, you immediately meet Annachiara who with her sympathy puts you at ease and gives you all possible explanations about the house, the area, the food, everything. The room is very beautiful and well-kept, the bed brand new, the spacious bathroom, LCD TV, balcony with sea view. The breakfast, all focused on sweet, has a variety of croissants, cookies, cakes... all fresh with coffee, cappuccino or other prepared by Annachiara herself. I could write much more, but I think it's clear that the rating is 110 out of 100.

What can I say, a paradise! Besides the absolutely strategic location, given that the B&B is located practically 300 meters from the very clean and beautiful sea but also 5 precise minutes from nearby cities, the people who welcomed us pleasantly surprised us! Always available and polite, Chiara and her mother kept us company throughout the stay, giving us advice on what to visit and where to eat, never making a mistake! The breakfasts are very abundant with also the possibility for those who are celiac to serve themselves with all the tranquility of the case. The structure inside is brand new and very beautiful and well cared for in colors and furnishings. There are all the necessary comforts, so air conditioning, television, and private bathroom. Also fundamental is the possibility of bringing dogs or cats with us, something not to be underestimated. Every time we entered the room after the cleaning, it seemed to be in a spotless place. In conclusion, we had a fabulous time and most likely next year we will make a new visit, definitely longer!

We arrived 2 days ago, the stay is ongoing! An enthusiastic but always discreet welcome, the perfect combination for a pleasant start. The B&B is very well-kept, clean, and pleasantly furnished. The sea view enjoyed from some rooms and shared spaces is spectacular. Just a few steps from the sea with very accessible equipped beaches (we go to the Gufo, ideal for families: games available, soft music, excellent hot pizzas repeatedly baked). The structure has a strategic location to discover the beauties of the area as it is located on the Adriatic. In 5 minutes you are in the center of Ortona. I leave the description of the breakfast for last: first they satisfy any dietary need or desire, second they do it with passion and skill, third they only use fresh ingredients (nothing pre-packaged) from hot bread to various types of sweets and croissants and locally produced jams and fruit. Who? The fantastic Chiara and Angela, a pair of fantastic women always ready to share smiles and give the right tips to make the holiday perfect. Thank you girls.

Spent four days of total relaxation with the very kind Chiara in this Bed and Breakfast located on the splendid sea of Lido Riccio in Ortona. Seafront position, just cross the street, and you will be amazed by the water that has nothing to envy to Salento! The structure is, in addition to being brand new, detailed in every aspect, with spacious rooms and bathrooms. The daily room cleaning is excellent, not to mention the abundant and enticing breakfast prepared by Chiara and her very kind and precious mother. Finally, for those who have and love their "furry friends," it is the ideal place, in fact, each room has a terrace. Two other fundamental elements: air conditioning and a garage parking space! In short, what can I say, not to be missed! I have already planned a ten-day stay at the end of July!
