Wedding Venue Information
Just a short drive from the center of Sorrento, perched high on the clifftop, is the 18th century neo-classical Villa Fondi, a firm favorite venue for people looking to have their wedding in Italy. Set in the wonderful municipal park, which affords stunning, sweeping views of the coast and the Mediterranean Sea, the area is full of countless botanical species and several flowerbeds. It also boasts an area consisting of two hundred and fifty plants, including palms, olive trees, and a monumental pine tree which is around 200 hundred years old. There is abundance of banana trees, holm oaks and much more in this natural haven. Be sure to check out the huge chessboard on the ground where you can play both chess and checkers. It is easy to see why the garden of the Villa Fondi is considered among the most stunning in the whole area. If you are looking for a little adventure then Kayak through the Punta Campanella Natural Marine Reserve, and take in the magnificent rocky coastline of the Amalfi Peninsula, while visiting the coves and sea caves with beaches that can be reached only by boat, and finishing off in the beautiful natural pool of Bagni della Regina Giovanna.
