Villa Cecilia in Santa Marinella.
Villa Cecilia stands apart as a working Tuscan estate along the Tyrrhenian coast, where Mediterranean gardens meet 16th-century architecture on a private 8-hectare property.
Unlike resort-style venues, this estate operates as a functioning agriturismo, offering guests authentic rural immersion rather than manicured event spaces.
The combination of beachfront access and inland vineyards provides dual ceremony and reception settings without leaving the grounds.
I cannot thank enough Cecilia and Fabrizio! I could leave here a whole letter explaining how thankful my husband, our family, friends and I are for meeting them, and for having the opportunity to celebrate our wedding at their vila. First of all the location has an incredible view, spacious enough and the food.. oh my god the food! 💯 And let me talk a little bit about them both, Cecilia and Fabrizio. Since we met them, i have had a feeling of a warm welcome and they are incredible humble and supported us a lot on taking decisions, sharing with us life experience and guiding us through our new journey, as a beggining of a marriage life. They are a couple that only expressed gratitude, modesty, hard workers and very good individuals being. I cannot wait to meet you both again, Cecilia and Fabrizio, and I am extremely thankful for everything you both did for us! I cannot give more than 5 stars, but believe me, I would! WONDERFUL!
