Sunborn Yacht Hotel – Love Afloat in Gibraltar’s Luxury Marina

A Glamorous Floating Wedding Venue in the Heart of Gibraltar

Step aboard the Sunborn Yacht Hotel and let your wedding unfold against the shimmer of the Mediterranean and the silhouette of the Rock. Docked in Gibraltar’s Ocean Village marina, this luxury superyacht offers the romance of the open sea with the convenience of a city location. From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, every space is steeped in elegance and bathed in breathtaking views.

Celebrating Love in All Its Forms

Whether you’re planning a civil marriage, civil partnership, LGBTQ+ wedding, or a celebration rooted in cherished cultural traditions such as Indian, Jewish, African, or Mediterranean heritage, the Sunborn offers a warm welcome and a setting worthy of your love story.

At Hour Weddings — Gibraltar’s leading wedding planning team with over 18 years’ experience — we tailor every detail so your wedding reflects your vision, traditions, and personalities.

Your Calm in the Excitement

A wedding on a luxury yacht may feel grand, but it should never feel overwhelming. From the moment you step onto Gibraltar’s shores, we’re here to make it effortless. We’ll welcome you with a smile and a glass of bubbly, walk you through your final details, and guide you on board so there’s no stress, no uncertainty — only anticipation. Every moment flows with ease, allowing you to soak in the sea breeze, the shimmering horizon, and the joy of saying “I do” surrounded by the people you love.

Personalised Design & Décor

From chic maritime elegance to lavish statement styling, we transform the Sunborn into your dream setting. Imagine rustic arches adorned with fresh greenery, soft draped fabrics swaying in the sea breeze, or twinkling fairy lights casting a romantic glow over the deck.
