Travel To Hornby

Accommodation

We would like to invite you to come celebrate with us for the weekend! We recommend arriving Friday September 26th in time for a welcome BBQ dinner (6pm) and departing Sunday September 28th after a farewell brunch (9:30am). We have reserved the entire Sea Breeze Lodge for close family and wedding party. We wish everyone could stay at Sea Breeze with us, but sadly, Sea Breeze can only accommodate about 80% of our guests. However, there are many amazing places to stay on Hornby. We recommend booking accommodation ASAP (at least 6 months prior to the wedding), as Hornby books up very fast with repeat customers and has limited accommodation options.&nbsp; If you are staying at Sea Breeze, you are already booked in from September 26th-28th 2025. If you would like to extend your stay at Sea Breeze you will need to arrange this directly with Sea Breeze. We cannot guarantee that you will be in the same cabin/room for the weekend.

Wind and Waves is very reliable property management company that we have used for years.
