We have different venues on the property where we host ceremonies and receptions depending on the number of people as well as the wedding party’s preference. There are a variety of options to host a ceremony including the upper beach (weather permitting), restaurant, or the Deck. After the ceremony, the upper beach and deck are where the guests will be relaxing and having canapés & drinks, whilst the photo shoot is taking place. We have two main areas where we can host the reception: The restaurant (semi-indoor) and Nyota Villa on the beach (outdoor) all depending on the weather. To give you an outline of how many people each venue can accommodate.

The below-listed number of guests is the estimated maximum that can be hosted for each venue.
