Frequently asked questions

Can we have both ceremony and reception on the property?

Yes. The resort offers beachfront ceremony spaces and multiple reception venues including the seafront terrace and indoor ballroom, all within walking distance on the same grounds.

Do we need to book the entire resort or specific rooms?

Santa Marina operates as a standard luxury hotel. You book room blocks for your guests at negotiated rates rather than purchasing exclusive venue access. Wedding packages typically include event space, catering, and coordination services separate from room reservations.

What's the typical wedding season and pricing?

Peak season runs May-September with higher room rates and venue fees. Shoulder seasons (April, October) offer better pricing. Contact the wedding department directly at the hotel for current rate cards, as pricing varies by date and guest count.

Is the beach usable for ceremonies year-round?

Yes, though wind conditions can be stronger November-March. Indoor and covered terrace options are always available as backups. Most couples choose late spring through early autumn for optimal beach usability.
