Mulinetti is a neighbourhood and frazione in the commune of Recco in the province of Genova in Liguria, Italy. Mulinetti is located to the west of the town adjacent to the border with Sori. It is considered the wealthy hamlet of Recco as there are many small villas with spectacular sea views. Besides the elegance of its residential buildings, it is also known abroad for its beautiful pebble beach.[1] Situated on the slopes of the Megli hill, Mulinetti is the site of two oil mills for the mostly non-commercial production of olive oil.
Mulinetti is mostly a group of villas located upon a cliffside with a large, lush forest located further up the cliff. Mulinetti has been labelled as a "peaceful oasis where travellers can immerse themselves in the azure blue of the sea and the emerald green of the pines, breathing in a fragrant sea scent while sunbathing close to the water’s edge. During winter the place lacks any tourism and becomes a calm, quaint community".[2]
