About the venue
Alcazar del Garraf, Sitges
Alcazar del Garraf is a 17th-century wine finca of 2,500 m², set in 40 hectares of private grounds in the Garraf Natural Park with views to the Mediterranean, about ten minutes from Sitges, 20 minutes from Barcelona airport and 35 from the city centre. Taken exclusively for at least three nights, it hosts weddings of up to 150 guests across its tropical gardens, terraces, courtyard and two swimming pools, with no curfew, and the interiors reflect the owner's international art collection. Its 11 en-suite bedrooms, including a 120 m² honeymoon suite with its own pool, sleep 22 to 24, catering is in-house, and villa hire runs from about €5,500 a night in low season to €7,000 in high season.
Alcazar del Garraf began life in the 17th century as a wine finca, and today it is a 2,500 m² villa standing in 40 hectares of private gardens and forest inside the Garraf Natural Park. From its terraces the views run across the park towards the Mediterranean, yet Sitges and its beaches are only ten minutes away.
The house has been renovated by its owner, a lifelong art collector, who has brought together its historic Catalan character, modern comforts and an international collection of art. There are generous separate living and dining rooms, including a beamed dining room with chandeliers, and every bedroom has its own freestanding bath.
Outside, tropical gardens with shaded seating, two large swimming pools, a barbecue area and a spacious courtyard for dining under the lights give plenty of settings for a ceremony, drinks and dinner, with an arched stone loggia above the gardens. There is no curfew, and live music is allowed inside and out.
The estate runs on solar power and draws water from its own well. Catering is by the in-house team, and an in-house wedding planner, guest transfers, photography, beauty, music and extra accommodation nearby can all be arranged. A housekeeping team of three for eight hours a day is required during the stay.
