Sikelia Luxury Retreat

Have you dreamed of a southern Italy Wedding? There is an island off the coast of the southern tip of Italy from where you can see more of Africa than Italy from its shores.  On this gorgeous little island sits an all-suites luxury, intimate destination wedding and honeymoon hotel. Host your southern Italy wedding here for an experience like nowhere else on the planet. Welcome to Sikelia.

The island, Pantelleria, the Black Pearl of the Mediterranean, is a place to discover and respect. With its dark rocks carved by the wind, it’s sharp forms softened by the roundness of the white dammusi dwellings, it’s natural hot springs and rejuvenating mud: the precious legacy of the volcano from which the island originated.  A true awakening of the senses, you’ll see stunning rock formations and stunted trees (here the wind blows and the trees follow the direction of the wind rather than stretch towards the sun), taste authentic flavors of rural Mediterranean tradition and feel like you are in another world.

Wedaways event planners will work alongside the team at Sikelia to ensure your journey to Pantelleria is as unforgettable as the love you share for your new spouse. This exclusive island is a luxurious backdrop for sharing your wedding vows in an intimate celebration or romantic elopement. If you’ve already formally tied the knot elsewhere, you can relax in the beautiful ambiance of the property and enjoy your time as newlyweds in a luxurious Sicilian honeymoon.

A hybrid of Italian, African and Arabic tradition, architecture, and feel, this island getaway is an ideal locale for a truly exclusive and secluded wedding celebration.  A jet-setter’s paradise!
