Hotel Cetarium If our preferred hotel is unavailable, Hotel Cetarium is a wonderful alternative and a favorite in Castellammare del Golfo. Located right along the marina, this boutique-style hotel offers charming rooms, beautiful sea views, and an unbeatable location just steps from restaurants, cafés, and the historic town center. Hotel Cetarium is especially ideal for guests who want to be in the heart of town and enjoy a lively, walkable atmosphere with easy access to the harbor and local beaches. The hotel also features a rooftop terrace where guests can enjoy breakfast or an aperitivo with stunning views of the sea. We recommend this hotel for anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and classic Sicilian charm if our main accommodation option is fully booked.

If you prefer a more independent stay, there are also many wonderful Airbnb and vacation rental options available throughout Castellammare del Golfo. Staying in town will keep you close to all wedding events, restaurants, beaches, and local charm. No matter where you choose to book, you’ll be right in the heart of the celebration.
Flight
For guests traveling from the New York area, Neos Air offers direct flights from JFK to Palermo, which is just a short drive from our wedding location in Castellammare del Golfo. Flights for summer 2026 are now available, and we recommend booking as early as possible, as direct routes tend to fill quickly. Another excellent option is ITA Airways, Italy’s national airline. While ITA typically offers one connection rather than a nonstop flight, it provides frequent departures, great service, and flexible scheduling, making it a reliable and comfortable choice for traveling to Sicily.
Rental Car
If you plan to explore Sicily by car, we recommend booking your rental in advance before arriving in Italy to ensure availability and better pricing. You can reserve through Expedia or any travel booking website that works best for you.
