Frequently asked questions

Can we have the ceremony outside year-round?

Yes, though May-September offers the most reliable weather. The hotel has covered terrace areas for spring and fall ceremonies when Mediterranean winds can be stronger.

What's the guest accommodation situation?

The hotel has 154 rooms across varying categories. Book your block early; during peak season (June-August), rooms fill quickly with non-wedding tourists as well.

How far is this from Naples airport?

Approximately 65 km (40 miles) away; typical transfer time is 90 minutes by car or private driver.

Can we do a multi-day event?

Absolutely. The hotel accommodates welcome dinners, rehearsal events, and post-wedding brunches. Many couples book the property for 3-4 days to maximize guest experience.

Is there photography flexibility for sunset shots?

Multiple terrace levels provide varied angles. Evening light hits the bay directly; plan sunset portraits between 7-8 PM depending on season.
