In the same estate "Consigli" where the poet lived his delightful moments, - in a second time renamed Rolandi Ricci - then came also illustrious guests like king Vittorio Emanuele III and Guglielmo Marconi. The real boom rose after the second World War, when Lido became one of the favorite destinations for the large national and international tourism.
