Before
Arrive a day or two early, settle into the rooms and let the garden absorb the last nerves. The house is yours to inhabit, not to decorate for a hundred guests.

The house, not the venue
Roc Villa Bay does not host weddings. It is the private seafront house where the couple, their family and closest friends stay while the celebration happens elsewhere in Tuscany.
Roc Villa Bay does not host weddings, ceremonies or receptions. It is the private seafront house where the couple and their closest people stay while the wedding takes place somewhere else in Tuscany.
An honest arrangement
We are not
the venue
You have chosen a place for the wedding. What you still need is a house for the days around it: somewhere private to wake up, to gather, to be photographed and to come back to at the end of the night.
That is what Roc Villa Bay is. A private villa above the Tyrrhenian Sea in Castiglioncello, with three units, four bedrooms, a Mediterranean garden and two private ways down to the water. No marquee, no guest list, no event programme. Just the house, the people closest to you and the sea below.
What the house offers →
The house
A quiet base
for a full heart
Three private units and four bedrooms, arranged so that a family can be together without living on top of one another.
There is a living room full of sea light, a kitchen that is pleasant to use, stone bathrooms and balconies that open to the horizon. Outside, more than four thousand square metres of Mediterranean garden hold the shade, the terraces and the paths down to the water.
The two private accesses matter on a wedding morning: a rocky cove reached by stone steps, and a sandy beach reached along a private path. Both belong to the house. Both are quiet.

The stay is here.

The morning
Sea light, breakfast, the people you love moving between the bedrooms and the terraces. Photographs in the garden or by the water can be agreed as part of the stay.
03
After
Come back late, leave the shoes by the door and swim the next morning. The house keeps its own pace while the celebration becomes a memory.

Questions
Before you write
to us
Can we hold the ceremony or the reception at Roc Villa Bay?
No. Roc Villa Bay does not host weddings, ceremonies, receptions or wedding dinners. It is a private house, and it stays a private house. What we offer is somewhere for the couple and their closest people to sleep, gather and recover around a wedding held elsewhere.
Where is Roc Villa Bay, and how far is it from our venue?
Roc Villa Bay is in Castiglioncello, a frazione of Rosignano Marittimo in the province of Livorno, on the Etruscan Riviera. We do not publish distances or drive times. Tell us where your celebration is and we will confirm the practicalities for your dates.
How many people can stay at the house?
The villa has three private units and four bedrooms. The exact sleeping arrangement for your group is confirmed in writing before anything is reserved; we do not publish a guest capacity we cannot guarantee.
Can we have wedding photographs taken at the house?
For guests staying at Roc Villa Bay, photographs in the garden and by the sea can be agreed as part of the stay. Professional productions with a crew are handled separately through our film and photo location page.
Do you provide planners, catering, flowers or event staff?
No. We do not provide wedding planning, catering, floral design or event staff, and we do not present a list of suppliers as if it were a service. Your celebration is organised by you and your own team at your chosen venue.
