Sixtilianum is a family-run guest house located in Sistiana, a coastal hamlet of the municipality of Duino-Aurisina in Friuli Venezia Giulia, about 650 metres from Castelreggio Beach and a short distance from Miramare Castle.
The property offers three room types, all with air conditioning, a private patio and an en-suite bathroom with shower, courtesy set and hairdryer. Each unit is equipped with a desk and a coffee machine, designed for those seeking a simple and functional stay in a quiet residential area. The building is entirely non-smoking, and the shared garden offers a green corner to relax after a day at the beach.
The location is particularly appreciated by guests, especially couples, for its proximity to the beaches of the Gulf of Trieste and for the ease of reaching both Duino and the centre of Trieste. Private parking is free, a not-insignificant advantage for those arriving by car in this stretch of coast. Free WiFi is available throughout the property, which is suitable for both couples and small groups thanks to the triple room.
The rooms at Sixtilianum are divided into three types – double, triple and double with private bathroom – all sharing air conditioning, a private patio and a private bathroom with shower, courtesy set and hairdryer. Each one features a desk and a coffee machine, details designed for those who want to make their own first coffee of the day before heading down to the beach.
The main differences concern the size, which ranges from 14 to 18 square metres, and the capacity: the Triple Room with Private Bathroom can accommodate up to three people thanks to the extra single bed, while the two double rooms are designed for couples’ stays. Two of the three units enjoy a view of the inner garden, a detail that adds a touch of greenery to a stay in Sistiana.
The largest of the double rooms, at 16 m² with a view of the property’s inner garden. It features a private patio, air conditioning, a desk and a bathroom with shower and courtesy set, plus a coffee machine to start the day with comfort.
The only room type designed for three people, at 18 m² with an extra single bed alongside the double bed. It overlooks the property’s garden and offers a private patio, air conditioning and a bathroom with shower, ideal for small groups or families.
The most compact room in the property, at 14 m², with a view of a quiet street rather than the garden, for those seeking maximum peace. The unit is completed by air conditioning, a desk, a private patio and a bathroom with shower and courtesy set.
Sixtilianum offers free private parking, a considerable advantage for those visiting the Trieste coast by car, along with free WiFi available throughout the property. The shared garden and the rooms’ patios allow guests to enjoy the outdoors even without heading to the beach, while the marble or tiled flooring and heating ensure a good level of comfort throughout the year.
The rooms, all non-smoking and with independent entrances, are located on the ground floor and include a wardrobe, bed linen, a refrigerator and an electric kettle in addition to the coffee machine. The bathroom lacks nothing: shower, courtesy set, hairdryer and toilet paper are guaranteed in every unit. The property is designed for families and small groups, with family rooms available for up to three people.
