THE NEW RENAISSANCE

Located right above The Renaissance, this is one of the most flexible venues at Montekristo Estate offering both indoor and outdoor space.  Its grand staircase entrance resembles that of a Roman temple with large marble columns offering an elevated terraced, yet roofed entertaining area on the façade.  Enjoying a small satellite kitchen, this venue is very convenient and capable of offering endless possibilities.  It is also connected to the Renaissance by means of a staircase or elevator for larger conventions and events.

THE WINE VAULTS

At the end of a long tunnel entrance, flanked by exquisite, classical marble statues, stands the impressive vastness of the Montekristo Wine Vaults.  This magnificent venue consists of four wide halls separated by magnificent arches under a hand crafted mahogany ceiling reflected on a translucent marble flooring.  Wrought iron chandeliers provide the lighting and hidden lamps create a magical atmosphere.  Mysterious tunnels, hewn out of living rock, fan out on three sides.  One of these tunnels can easily be the setting for unique tailor made events, while the others are intimate and suggestive alcoves, ideal for relatively cosy groups.

With a grand capacity of 1,500 guests standing, the Vaults can accommodate large scale events and banquets, yet offer enough flexibility to host smaller events without losing any of their charm and character.  The Montekristo Wine Vaults are supported by two bars and their own satellite kitchen.
