San Clemente Palace Venice
San Clemente Palace is a large-scale wedding venue set on a private island just outside Venice, combining historic monastery buildings with resort-style facilities. With over 900 years of history, the estate offers a mix of Renaissance architecture, expansive gardens and waterfront views, suited to destination weddings with both scale and structure.
The setting is defined by its space and layout. Nearly 78,000 square metres of landscaped gardens surround the property, alongside a 12th-century church and a series of restored cloisters and reception areas that can host different parts of the celebration across the day.
San Clemente Palace can host weddings for up to 280 guests, with extensive indoor and outdoor options available. On-site accommodation includes 170 rooms and suites, allowing large groups to stay together throughout the event. Facilities include multiple restaurants, an outdoor pool, spa, tennis court and wellness areas, supporting multi-day wedding plans.
Located just minutes by boat from Venice and approximately 40 minutes from Venice Marco Polo Airport, it offers a private island setting with straightforward access for international guests.
