Frequently asked questions

Can we customize the menu with items not grown on the estate?

Yes. While Petra Kouzina specializes in estate-grown ingredients, they work with couples to incorporate specific requests and regional Santorini specialties. Discuss preferences during the initial consultation.

What's the weather situation in summer, and how is it managed?

July-August average 28-30°C with minimal shade naturally. The venue provides umbrellas, partial canopy coverage on terraces, and can arrange additional shade structures. Evening ceremonies (after 6pm) are popular.

Are there backup indoor spaces if weather becomes problematic?

Limited covered indoor space exists. The venue works best for ceremonies with flexible timing. Confirm bad-weather contingency plans directly with management.

How far is the nearest airport, and what's ground transport like?

Santorini International Airport (JTR) is 12km away via winding island roads (20-30 minute drive). Pre-arranged transfers through the venue or local services are recommended over standard taxis.
