Villa Le Palme in Giardinello, open May–August.
Villa Le Palme was constructed in the early 20th century as a private estate and has been meticulously restored to preserve its original Sicilian architectural character while incorporating modern wedding amenities.
Positioned in the serene countryside of Giardinello, this 150-guest-capacity venue offers panoramic views across the Conca d'Oro valley and hosts intimate ceremonies and receptions within its historic stone walls and manicured grounds.
Perfect venue for big events such as a wedding or a big birthday party. The service is amazing, organised greatly. Various food and drink options. Not easy to reach (you'll need a car) but its well worth it.
