Property details

Escape to a magnificent spa resort in the picturesque village of Sistiana just north of Trieste, with stunning marina views, and sumptuous wellness facilities - includes breakfast, and a welcome drink
  • Stunning Sistiana: Set in the exclusive Portopiccolo community clustered around Sistiana's idyllic marina, Tivoli Portopiccolo Sistiana Resort & Spa exudes timeless Italian elegance. Framed by rugged cliffs and lush Mediterranean vegetation, this utterly serene spot boasts captivating views of the marina and Adriatic beyond, while airy interiors feature sleek contemporary designs and soothing cool and neutral tones.

  • World-class wellness: Spend long hours savouring the fresh sea breeze, before retreating to the resort's spectacular spa  to drift between the sauna, hot tub, steam room and sensory shower, and hunker down in the relaxation room. Elsewhere, break a sweat in the Technogym fitness centre or with a fun workout class, and enjoy discounted access to the vast Portopiccolo Spa, home to one of Europe’s largest hydrotherapy circuits.

  • Exquisite dining: Start each day with freshly-baked pastries and a caffè latte at the elegant Ocyan restaurant, and return later on for fresh Mediterranean flavours served on the beautiful terrace. And as the sun sets over the glistening yacht-lined marina, treat yourself to a refreshing cocktail, light bites and perhaps some homemade pasta at the chic Azur Lounge.

How to get there

Located in Sistiana on Italy's northeastern coast, Tivoli Portopiccolo Sistiana Resort & Spa is about 25 minutes' drive from Trieste Airport. The resort offers an airport shuttle service for an additional fee, and we recommend hiring a car if you want to explore the surrounding coastline.

A short drive from the medieval port city of Trieste, the charming village of Sistiana lies tucked in a tranquil bay along the glittering Gulf of Trieste. Surrounded by lush vegetation and striking limestone karst formations, its pristine natural surroundings are complemented by the picturesque houses of Portopiccolo at your doorstep, which are dotted on the hillside above the pretty marina. 

You'll find plenty of hiking trails in the vicinity, while Portopiccolo's beach is just six minutes away on foot. And when you aren't soaking up the sun or savouring fresh seafood at a local eatery, take a scenic half-hour's drive to Trieste, passing by Miramare Castle to see the magnificent former bolthole of the Habsburgs and Italian royalty.
