Castello di San Marco: a wedding near Taormina
Castello di San Marco Taormina Bay is a resort in a late-Baroque castle at Calatabiano near Taormina. Mediterranean gardens, historic interiors and the coastal setting provide several atmospheres for a Sicilian wedding. Views towards Mount Etna and the Ionian shoreline are part of the property’s character, combining traditional architecture with resort facilities.
Castle gardens and event spaces
Couples can ask about the Arab-inspired garden, indoor reception rooms, the park and the beach lounge terrace by the sea. The venue advertises overall room capacities, but figures for separate spaces must not be added together to infer the authorised capacity of one wedding dinner. Discuss the exact seating plan and which locations may be used during the event. Hotel accommodation may also be considered for the couple and invited guests.
Planning and enquiries
The property is at Via San Marco 40, Calatabiano, Catania province. Contact the wedding team to enquire about a preferred date, guest numbers, menu and reception format. Before booking, verify accessibility, ceremony arrangements, transport between the castle and beach, supplier access, weather contingencies and event timings. Written terms should clarify any exclusivity, catering and music conditions.

Wedding coordination and event spaces
Castello di San Marco offers wedding planning support for exclusive events. Its official website mentions a combined capacity of 600 across its reception rooms, but this must not be read as one banquet area for 600 guests. Couples can discuss the Arab-style garden, Mediterranean park, historic reception rooms and beach lounge with its sea-view terrace and bar. The resort’s chefs offer Sicilian-inspired cuisine. Prices are on request and depend on the date, guest count, selected areas, beach arrangements, catering and technical services. Ask the coordinator to confirm the final layout, wet-weather alternative, music arrangements and other restrictions.
