Questions about the venue
Can we have a ceremony on the beach versus the terraces?+
Yes. The private beach is bookable for ceremonies, though weather contingency plans are essential. Most couples use the tiered terraces as primary ceremony space with beach areas reserved for cocktail hours or smaller ceremonies.
What's the actual guest count limit?+
The venue accommodates 20–150 guests depending on configuration. The main restaurant and terraced gardens handle larger events; intimate ceremonies work well on lower terrace levels or the beach.
Are wedding packages all-inclusive?+
The hotel offers à la carte catering and beverage pricing rather than fixed packages. You'll work with their events coordinator to build a custom menu and bar plan suited to your guest count and preferences.
How far is the nearest airport?+
Naples International (Capodichino) is 60km away, approximately 90 minutes by car. Salerno Airport is closer at 40km but receives fewer international flights.
Can we use outside vendors (photographer, florist, DJ)?+
The hotel works with both in-house and preferred vendor lists. Confirm any outside vendor policies in advance, particularly for technical setup access on ceremony and reception days.
