Cala dei Balcani has the enourmous fortune to be situated in this marvellous place, chosen each year by thousands of people as an holiday goal, discovery and celebrations.
Salento is now one of the destinations most loved by Italians and from all over
the world thanks to its natural beauties, its excellences in enogastronomy, its
charming villages and to the warm welcoming of its inhabitants.
Cala dei Balcani is the only vertical venue on the Salento sea with a Saracen
tower for brides and grooms who wish to have a breath taking wedding
dynamic and surprising directly on the Sea of Santa Cesarea Terme.
Unlike other classical wedding venues who simply offer an internal hall and an
external area and once entered they uncover the environment in which the
entire day will take place, Cala dei Balcani offer countless perspectives and
many different settings for the various moments of the wedding.
An exclusive and peculiar structure that hides a surprise behind each corner
and never stops charming enchanting and excite during the entire event.
A dynamic and engaging reception that will certainly be able to differentiate
itself from the usual cliché and remain memorable in everybody’s mind
Yes, I want the only venue with a Saracen Tower!
Venues are not all the same especially those by the sea..
Cala Dei Balcani differentiates it self from all the others for the event exclusivity that can be initially undervalued but it makes a huge difference for
those who do not want to share space and services with total strangers!
The wedding reception is quite often only one of the available services and it
has to live together with all that a touristic structure offers its guests: hotel,
beach, disco, internal restaurant or other events celebrates in the same day.
The big numbers, the numerous requests and the hybrid nature of the
structures, sometimes carry with them the birth of mass proposals not very
careful to the service and superficial. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to analyse each element with the utmost care in order to avoid delusions and future regrets.
Wedding at Cala dei Balcani is an immersive experience in the Salento nature, in the authenticity of the colours, of the perfumes and flavours of this wonderful land.

The Saracen Tower
a blue sea surrounded by the embrace of the pinewood, a 5000 years’ pinewood, uncontaminated and authentic.
The Saracen Tower, unique and spectacular, stands out on this postcard with its
might. A careful and respectful restoration has given it back its ancient beauty
and it certainly will be able to enchant adults and children making them travel
through time. Panoramic and breath taking the Saracen Tower is the welcome
area of the reception. The place of arrival where spouses and guests in a
single glance can admire a boundless horizon going from the Leuca cape to
the Balcans.
In this marvellous frame the staff of Cala dei Balcani will be able to furnish the spaces and serve a rich express welcome buffet.
Guests will not have to stay
under a gazebo with a glass of juice and wait the spouses before enjoying the
reception. They will be welcomed, served and pampered while immersed in a dream place: they will think they are on holiday!
The Path
From the area of the Saracen Tower you can descend through the
panoramic path immersed in the pinewood and botanical park where it will be
possible to admire more than 500 different species of plants that are both
natives and spontaneous: Apulia in all its facets.
The panoramic courtyard
An enchanting and striking view, a structure granting a stable natural breeze for the enjoying of a pleasant experience in
every season. The end of the path opens on the courtyard: a stunning terrace
encased in the Salento rocks on one side and open on the sea on the other.
The space has the possibility of being covered and repaired with a structure
having a spectacular illumination, to handle in each meteorological
circumstance without compromising the atmosphere. The courtyard is the
area designated to the service of appetizers, prepared express in the nearby
kitchen.
The oak garden
Some steps behind the courtyard is the wonderful greenarea that is used for the relax during the reception. A dynamic area always available for a walk, a pause, a chat under the shade of our might oak tree.
The main dining hall
A hall in the typical local stone dating back to the middle of 1800’ immerge all in the authentic Apulia and it is the area in which first and main courses are served. The celling with a star vault and the cathedral structure make you live an out of time experience, pleasant from thevisual point of view and not only that.
The hall grants an impeccable service express service with the best protection of the temperatures and presentation of the dishes. The ample spaces for a
comfortable living, will allow you to stay next to your friends.
It is foreseen a dancing area that does not mix with the entrance, it avoids discomforts and grants a perfect acoustics thanks to its structure.
There will be no village fair effect that is typical of many dining halls but an elegant and fine space that certainly will enchant spouses and guests.
The belvedere terrace
An open space with a wide panorama: on one side
the sea, on the other the town of Santa Cesarea Terme and behind the rocks
and the pinewood. It is the right place for the dance, the music and chat. The
best frame for the fruit and dessert buffet and the conclusion of your reception
The internal kitchen
It’s the place in which the culinary and gastronomic
experience takes shape, cheering your guests up with delicious dishes,
expertly prepared and served with the utmost care to flavour and aesthetics.
To have an internal kitchen with a well-trained team, working to give the
maximum quality in the service, starting from the choice of the raw material to
the plating, it’s fundamental to grant the success of your event and the satisfaction of your guests. Now that we have visited the areas of Cala dei

Perfect organization and coordination.
Perfect organization and coordination.
We chose with care and attention these word as, actually, they are neither
obvious nor foregone. Often we meet spouses who took part in other weddings and they tell us different experiences and, maybe this happened also to you …
In the most cases the wedding venues offer a standardized protocol: the villa welcomes spouses and guests in the external area for the starting buffet, then
they take place in the hall for the dinner and go back outside for dessert and
cutting of the cake. The initial glance will be of impact, according to the setting chosen by the couple but what is certain is that soon it will be over and will
pass unobserved.
A standard venue, as a matter of facts, that has an outside area and one
inside shows from the first moment to its guests all that it offers with regards to
the setting, risking to bore or simply create habit. From the first minutes it is clear where the entire event will take place and the touching initial impact will be over soon.
And if in the major part of the events this format is comfortable in other
occasions it reserves unpleasant surprises. For example, the guests are
obliged to stay in a waiting area until the arrival of the spouses without the
possibility to access the buffet, to the other services the spaces and the settings are not large enough to allow movement and comfortability and they
are always the same, statics in each hour of the day, the external catering arrives with bulky equipment, trucks and fridges taking off further space to the reception or creating a really non evocative atmosphere.
After all, very often the venues are adapted to the wedding, but they were not
created for this type of event, so it becomes necessary to make compromises, taking advantage of what is available. And not only that, very often these are
hybrid situations in which the wedding is just one of the many activities of a
location.
The wedding guests will have to share the spaces with those of the hotel, the
beach, the disco, the internal restaurant or the other weddings celebrated that
day!
(ESPECIALLY THOSE ON THE SEA).
But not with us!
