Villa Cimbrone
Home to the Terrace of Infinity, the most famous view on the Amalfi Coast, and a boutique garden hotel that turns a Ravello wedding into something close to mythic.
Villa Cimbrone is a historic estate of cloisters, statuary and gardens above Ravello, run as a small luxury hotel of 19 rooms. The draw is the Terrace of Infinity, a statue lined balustrade that seems to float over the coast, used for a cocktail hour after dusk rather than the dinner itself. The setting is unforgettable, which is precisely why it asks for a planner who can work within its rhythms.
It carries a refined celebration rather than a vast party, and Ravello sits high above the coast road, so the arrival and the logistics reward someone who has done it before.
Villa Cimbrone is a boutique garden hotel in Ravello on the Amalfi Coast, famous for its Terrace of Infinity.

Cloisters, statuary and a view that seems to float.
Style and setting
Villa Cimbrone is a historic estate at the edge of Ravello, restored in the early 20th century and now a boutique luxury hotel of 19 rooms and suites. Its gardens hold cloisters, a rose walk, a tea room and the celebrated Terrace of Infinity, a long balustrade lined with marble busts that opens onto an uninterrupted view of the Amalfi Coast far below. The mood is romantic and a little theatrical, with the garden itself the great set piece.
Capacity
The villa hosts weddings of roughly 30 to 200 guests across its spaces. The Terrace of Infinity itself is capped at around 110 and is available after 7:30 in the evening, so it is used for a cocktail hour at golden hour rather than the seated dinner. Plan the dinner in the gardens or the cloister and keep the terrace for the moment that matters.
Staying on site
The hotel's 19 rooms and suites house the wedding party, while the wider group takes the other hotels of Ravello, a small and walkable town. Because Ravello sits high above the coast, staying in the town keeps guests close and avoids a late drive up the cliff road after the party.
What it costs
As an indicative July 2025 guide, Villa Cimbrone carries a minimum spend of around EUR 50,000 covering catering and venue hire, with the ceremony space and the Terrace of Infinity each priced separately on top. A full wedding here commonly runs higher once decor, music and staffing are added. Treat every figure as indicative and confirm directly with the villa.
