How much does a wedding at Hotel Fuente del Sol cost?
Hotel Fuente del Sol prices a wedding as a two-night takeover of a whitewashed farmhouse hotel south of Antequera: the published €22,000 is quoted for 50 guests and includes two nights for 38 with food and drink. The record also gives a wedding menu from €98 a head and an open bar from €9 a head per hour, which is what each further guest costs. This guide sets out what is in the figure, who sleeps in the 19 rooms, the three outdoor ceremony sites, the absence of a music curfew, and how the hotel compares with the other Andalusian venues priced as all-in packages.

What €22,000 buys at a glance
Hotel Fuente del Sol is a rural hotel built in the manner of an Andalusian farmhouse, with Arab-tile roofs, an arched courtyard, whitewashed walls and wood and terracotta inside, standing in rolling country south of El Torcal with views over the Guadalhorce Valley. Its published from-price is €22,000, and the record's own wording is that the figure is for 50 wedding guests and includes a two-night stay for 38 with food and drink. So the number carries the hotel, the beds for the house party, their meals across the stay, and the wedding for a list of 50. Weddings are taken from 40 to 90 guests, with the hotel yours exclusively and no music curfew.
The record notes limited dates in 2026 and prices the package for the 2027 to 2028 season, which is worth knowing if you are planning for next year rather than the year after.
The menu and the bar, per head
What makes this hotel easier to budget than most all-in packages is that it publishes the per-head rates behind the package. The wedding menu, described as a cocktail reception followed by a banquet, starts at €98 per person. The open bar is priced at €9 per person for each hour, so the bar bill is the rate, the hours and the heads multiplied together. Those two rates are the natural reading for every guest above the 50 the package is quoted for, and for any extra hours of bar for the whole list, though you should confirm with the venue that this is how the extras are charged.
Put together, one further guest costs the menu plus however long the bar runs. At the published rates:
The record carries no structured catering figure beyond the package, so we have not built a hire-plus-catering table at several guest counts the way we do for venues that charge a bare hire. For a list of 90, take the package, add the menu and bar for the guests above 50, and then the suppliers. The budget calculator does that sum at your own numbers.
Who sleeps in the nineteen rooms
The hotel has 19 rooms sleeping up to 50 guests, with a minimum stay of two nights that matches the two nights in the price. The package pays for 38 of those beds, so for a house party larger than that the remaining rooms are a separate line, priced on enquiry. For a 90-guest wedding, the hotel can sleep more than half the list on site, which is a higher share than most Andalusian estates manage, and the venue keeps a hotel recommendation list for everyone else, with Antequera the obvious base. The guide to venues with accommodation compares the Spanish venues by how much of the list they can house.
Between the two nights, the pool and the grounds do the work. Trekking is the one experience the record lists, and the hotel's position below El Torcal makes the limestone park the walk to take on the morning after.
Three ceremony sites and no curfew
The record names three outdoor ceremony settings. The first is a lakeside clearing by the water, shaded by a single holm oak. The second, La Encina, is a dedicated ceremony site within the grounds. The third is the vineyard's old threshing floor, which looks out across the Guadalhorce Valley. Ceremony and reception each take from 40 to 90, and the reception moves between the central garden, the Andalusian courtyard and the event hall as the day goes on. The venue lists both a licensed bar and no music curfew, so the dancing is not cut off at a fixed hour, which in a region where many estates close the music by law is a genuine point of difference.
The hotel is not listed as licensed for marriage, so the ceremony at the lake or on the threshing floor is a symbolic one led by a celebrant. For most couples flying in this is the route they would take anyway, since a non-resident foreign couple can rarely complete the civil ceremony in Spain; the legal step happens at home. The guide on how to get married in Spain explains the paperwork.
Getting to Antequera
The venue puts Málaga Airport at roughly 75 km by road, with Granada, Córdoba and Seville each about an hour and a half away, which makes it one of the better-connected inland venues in the region. By straight line the nearest airport we map is Málaga (AGP), about 30 km from the hotel. Antequera itself sits at the crossroads of Andalusia, so guests coming by train from Madrid or Seville have a station close by, and the hotel lists car parking and disabled access.
Beside the other all-in packages in Andalusia
Three other estates in our Andalusia collection publish a figure that carries the nights, and two of them carry food and drink as well. They are the right frame for reading the hotel's price.
Jimena de la Frontera · Andalusia
Cortijo Romanup to 180 guests · sleeps 22 · 2-night minimum · from €25,000
Monesterio · Andalusia
La Dehesa de Don Pedroup to 300 guests · sleeps 48 · 2-night minimum · from €9,500
Finca La Donaira near Ronda is €37,000 with two nights for 20 with food and drink, capped at 80 guests, so a dearer package for far fewer beds, with a spa and a working farm in the price. Cortijo Roman at Jimena de la Frontera is €25,000 with two nights for 22 with food and drink and takes 180. La Dehesa de Don Pedro is €9,500 in low season with two nights for 37, but food is quoted separately and the list can run to 300. Of the three packages that include food and drink, Fuente del Sol gives the most beds for the least money. The Andalusia wedding cost guide reads every priced venue in the region, and venues by budget bands the collection.
Who it suits
Hotel Fuente del Sol is for a couple with a list between 40 and 90 who want most of it sleeping under one roof, an outdoor ceremony with a view, and a party that is allowed to run late. The published menu and bar rates make it one of the easier venues in Andalusia to cost accurately before you enquire. It is not for a wedding under 40, and a list that is heading past 90 should look at Cortijo Roman or La Dehesa. The full collection shows every venue's figures side by side, and an enquiry through us costs nothing.
Questions couples ask us
How much does a wedding at Hotel Fuente del Sol cost?
The published starting price is €22,000, quoted for 50 wedding guests and including a two-night stay for 38 with food and drink. The record also lists a wedding menu from €98 a head and an open bar from €9 a head for each hour, which is how guests beyond the package are priced.
How many guests can the hotel sleep?
Nineteen rooms sleep up to 50, over a minimum stay of two nights. The package carries beds for 38 of them, so the remaining rooms are a separate line for a larger house party.
Is there a music curfew?
No. The venue lists full exclusivity with no music curfew, so the party is not cut off at a fixed hour. The reception moves between the central garden, the Andalusian courtyard and the event hall.
What is the guest range for a wedding?
From 40 to 90 guests for both the ceremony and the reception. The venue does not take a wedding smaller than 40, so a very small party should look elsewhere.
