This review is based on utilizing the hotel as a wedding venue.
With that said, what a great experience we had for my brother's wedding! Hotel La Villa is truly a picturesque place for weddings and as this was a destination wedding, it was very small so the grounds worked well. The hotel is set higher up from the lake which has a very nicely manicured garden and grassy banks going down to the lake. It's a bit steep so for wedding guests who are elderly or have trouble walking, you may want to have staff transport them on the golf cart they have. There's a small bar on the shore with a few tables which sit right on the shoreline. The views are stunning! There's also a small pier, part of it is covered and they house some small tour boats.
On the shore they also have a decent sized space for the wedding ceremony. My brother and his wife chose to have the guests face towards the lake and we in the wedding party faced the hotel. They had rows of benches covered in white linens. We brought our own flowers, decor, and my brother-in-law officiated. The hotel was accommodating on all these points.
The reception was held in their main hall which was essentially a room of windows and was beautiful! Spacious for 50 people which left room for a decent sized dance floor. Guests faced the lake view once again.
The staff was very professional and personable. They truly catered to all of our needs and the level of service was top notch! The food at the reception was also delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. There were several courses and aside from skipping the seafood, I truly enjoyed all of them except the dessert. I think having the dessert and wedding cake wasn't necessary and the wedding cake they served was so good that the peach tart was a hard and not very flavorful.
The wedding took place on a Tuesday so I'm sure our rates were much cheaper than on the weekend. I would love to visit this hotel again just to relax by the lake! read more
