About this vendor
Nestled on the shores of Biscayne Bay, on Old Cutler Road, in the Village of Palmetto Bay, stands Thalatta Estate. Today, this vintage mansion serves a prominent role in the community as a unique park for outdoor weddings as well as an event and program venue. Your guests will take a pause as they arrive through a grand coral rock walled entrance to witness a stunning two-story Mediterranean estate and majestic banyan tree flanked by a quaint Carriage House. The 1920's Main House, with its beautiful fireplace, original Cuban tile floors, upstairs lounging quarters, offers spectacular views of the sprawling estate grounds and Key Biscayne to the east. The two-story Carriage House has been modernized to include park offices, a prep kitchen for catering, restrooms, and upstairs lounge area.

Attended a wedding here. The valet parked my car and upon pickup it was dented. No "incident reports" on the valet. SO, the valet company told me they need footage from Thalatta Estate to confirm accident, and Thalatta Estate won't provide footage. My theory, it's been deleted? Or the cameras are inactive? Not sure? But either way, I'm out $$ for their inability to provide the necessary footage to the valet company. (Why have cameras if you can't get them to work!?) Take responsibility.
What a great place for an event
If the weather holds up it is an amazing venue. The people at Thalatta, including Alessia and James are really great. Incredibly helpful, they answer as many questions and walk through the location as many times as you want. They are really nice… and the venue is gorgeous and dramatic…. Really a perfect place for a wedding or any festive occasion.
You do need a rain contingency plan and that does present a bit of an issue, but that’s a risk you run as there is no indoor back up option
I had the pleasure of working at a wedding at this beautiful estate. It has gorgeous water views and a romantic garden. The bride's suite and groom's quarters make it really convenient for the couple. Alessia handles all the reservations and she is a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend having your wedding at Thalatta!
Romantic venue and perfect location for a ceremony and reception. The environment (Spanish architecture and the bay nearby) provide a lovely setting. You do need to keep in mind that there are no indoor facilities for the actual ceremony and reception, so if it rains, you need to factor in a tent. We got married in late April and there was an 80% chance of rain, but in the end it was a super sunny and dry day. Absolutely recommend this location.
Estate is beautiful- go check it out! I got married in March, so it was not too warm and there was only a little rain. The people who run the estate are very professional. For me, it was worth the cost. You won't have to spend so much money on decor because the ambiance is set with the venue and you'll have a beautiful night to remember!
The most amazing place to have a wedding/reception. Very romantic and excellent employees
Picture a romantic garden giving way to the sea. Picture yourself and your friends and family dining and dancing beneath the stars and the twinkling lights. Imagine getting ready for your big day right on the property, no stress. Now think about getting all this for an incredible price. That's Thalatta!
One of the best decisions my then-fiancee (now husband :) ) made was getting married there. I am not exaggerating when I tell you that we considered three different countries and seven different cities, plus five different venues before deciding on Thalatta Estate as our wedding venue and, along with our decision on the wedding planner, it was the best decision we ever made! I had been searching for a place to get married on a garden by the ocean, and the minute I saw Thalatta, I knew it was "the one." :)
It's hard to know where to begin with the compliments. The pictures of Thalatta really don't do it justice. From the first moment we stepped into the place we were blown away by its beauty. There's an open and expansive feel about Thalatta that gives you a sense of peace as soon as you walk in. I won't spoil it for you too much if you haven't been there yet, but let's just say the first look you will get of the wide, so wide the word "expansive" doesn't do it justice and, perfectly-manicured lawn, the garden grounds, the courtyard, you will fall in love. At night, the lights twinkle all the way to the bay in the near distance.
All of our guests could not stop raving for weeks afterwards about how magical everything was, how special Thalatta Estate is. Even locals were asking, how did you find this place? It's tucked away on a corner of Palmetto Bay, but it's amazing, and an incredible value too. We paid half the price of all the other venues we looked at, and had the venue to ourselves for longer (Thalatta has a very flexible time policy). Plus Thalatta has a huge bridal suite, and a separate huge groom's suite, all equipped with a TV, a fridge. I mean, if I hadn't already gotten married I wouldn't want to write this review bc I'm pretty sure value for money Thalatta Estate is the best kept secret in town and I would not want to ruin it for myself :).
On top of all that, the staff at Thalatta were super helpful from day 1, answering all my questions quickly, working with me to resolve any issues that came up, showing lots of flexibility. Alessia at the front office, who we worked with closer, was especially helpful and professional throughout the process.
On top of all that, the staff of Thalatta is constantly cleaning and manicuring the place, so it's in great shape.
Last but not least, it was super important for us to have the venue all to ourselves. I felt that a place like Thalatta, as opposed to a hotel, provided a sense of exclusivity that I wanted. And I was right.
Professional, organized and lovely staff at the best venue you can get in Miami!
