The Prize

Enjoy a 1-night stay for two, breakfast included, at the Sextantio Albergo Diffuso in the medieval village of Santo Stefano di Sessanio in Abruzzo, Italy.

Sextantio Albergo Diffuso, is a culturally historical project which breathes life into the forgotten places and people of Abruzzo. Using the original identity stamp which runs through every aspect of the project it stays respectfully true to the culture and customs of its ancestors. Our brand and style recreates the traditions of a medieval village from how the villagers lived their lives to the food they ate and the crafts they practiced along with the skills they possessed. Over ten years of research with the help of the museum “Genti d’Abruzzo” has been dedicated to recreating a true to life experience of being there hundreds of years ago.

The interior design of our rooms is inspired by pictures that Paul Scheuermeier, Swiss linguist, took in Abruzzo in the 20s of twentieth century. To preserve the unity of the interior aesthetic-affective and avoid the over-use of contemporary elements, we used native objects, often stored in museums, and ancient and traditional local materials

The search for the archaic soul of these spaces has led to the preservation of small windows, the dim light, the uneven floors and the choice of single details, such as handmade soaps, made from olive oil and products strictly according to traditional methods. The only “poetic license”, is the choice of contemporary sanitary ware, sober, geometric and with an extremely recognizable design.

This experience must be redeemed by September 4, 2021. Public holidays excluded.

Booking according to availability of the hotel.

The Cause

Who we are - The Oltre le Parole Foundation was created in 2016 to respond to the growing needs in the Abruzzo region coming from autistic people and their families.

Despite having a few years of life, the Foundation was born from the important experience of the ALBA Association, Parents; Association which was among the first associations in Italy to have an international reach in the field of behavioral approaches and in particular contributing in Italy to developing the Know How necessary to implement ABA programs in the field on children and teenagers with Autism.

Our mission is to create innovative projects that have a positive impact on the lives of people with Autism and those who care for them.

La Casa dei Sogni was inaugurated in April 2019, a social insertion project in which about 20 children occupy their time in a fun and constructive way while acquiring a series of skills and autonomies that will facilitate their social insertion making them more and more autonomous.
The dream house is organized like a club where kids spend time with peers.
A clubhouse where are organized activities that students like.

Given the success of the House of Dreams, the Oltre le Parole Foundation is committed to raising funds to create new structures in the four provinces of Abruzzo, while the Association is committed to training and research.
