Their mission to restore early buildings with great attention to historically accurate detail came to full fruition in the award-winning Albergo Diffuso. Their desire for accuracy is evident in the structure’s authentic details like uneven floors, low ceilings, and locally designed furnishing. With that same vision, Sextantio has renovated the homes in Santo Stefano di Sessanio in such a way that they flawlessly merge medieval details and modern conveniences.

With each project, Realitalia implements a proven property management system to allow homeowners, if desired, to effortlessly manage their properties remotely. The owners can promote, schedule, and book vacationers through an online rental service which also includes an on site concierge service, and assistance to the homeowner with particulars to make their ownership more enjoyable. The end result is a personalized holiday home that offers the ultimate in relaxation and satisfaction.

Once a thriving wool trading hub in the thirteenth century, Santo Stefano di Sessanio is a charming country town nestled in the rolling hills of the Gran Sasso-Monti della Laga National Park. The town has remained relatively untouched by developers, allowing a unique setting among beautiful medieval structures. The rustic village is home to several specialty shops and stores that maintain their rich Abruzzo cultural traditions
