Overview
Have your luxury wedding in Italy at THE Santavenere - the perfect luxury 5 star wedding venue - 11 acres of wonderful natural beauty (blue blue crystal seas, high mountains, one of Europe's most beautiful coastline with views second to none). This luxury hotel houses the finest of accommodations, restaurants, club rooms, and health spa.
It has been featured in Vogue, with languorous models posing on its arcaded veranda above the Tyrrhenian Sea. Its celebrity guests have included Frank Sinatra, Richard Burton, Sophia Loren and other Italian film stars, and leading fashion designers.
Situated on its own enchanted peninsula, the Santavenere Hotel, with its ancient Saracen watch tower, offers the maximum of pampering of a luxury wedding in Italy venue. The watch tower, in perfect tranquility, jealously guards a natural beauty of coves, beaches, and soaring mountains, all edged with intensely colored Mediterranean flowers - especially bougainvillea.

Area Info
Located in Italy's last undiscovered, unspoiled area - literally stunning - Coast of Maratea & The Cilento National Park. Traveler Magazine says "Maratea is Heaven - It's The Amalfi Without The Crowds.... Italy's Best Kept Secret".
It is just to the south of the Amalfi coast; however, much easier, cheaper, and faster to get to - excellent high-speed road (A3) and rail service from Naples (many airlines) and Lamezia Terme (Ryan Air & Alitalia).
