Stunning Ocean-Front Venue with Exceptional Staff!

Our wedding at the ICONA Windrift was nothing short of magical. From the moment we stepped onto the property, we knew it was the perfect place for our special day. The setting is absolutely stunning with breathtaking views of the ocean. It created the most gorgeous backdrop for both our ceremony and reception. The team at the Windrift (Ronda, Shannon and Jeff) went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. They were incredibly professional, attentive, and responsive to every little detail we requested. They made sure our vision came to life seamlessly, and we never had to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding. Nestled right along the beachfront, the location offers stunning ocean views that created the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and photos. The sound of the waves and the shining sun made it all feel like a dream. Our ceremony was on the beach, while cocktail hour and the reception were indoors on the second floor with the stunning beach view. Catering was also top-notch. We received endless compliments on the food and drinks, from the appetizers at cocktail hour to the specialty drinks - the Windrift knows what they are doing. If you're looking for a venue that combines natural beauty, excellent service, and a personal touch, the Windrift is it. We couldn't have imagined a more perfect place to say I do, and we are so grateful to the entire team for making our wedding day unforgettable.

Incredible Wedding Experience

Ronda, Jeff, and Katie went above and beyond to make our wedding perfect before, during and after our big day. I can’t even put into words how awesome this team is — we cannot get over how amazing they made our day and are forever grateful for their time, energy and support. The ballroom, food, and service was beyond our wildest dreams and they completely hit it out of the ballpark and made our day completely seamless. I will recommend the time and time again.

may wedding bridal suite

We selected the windrift hotel as our bridal suite for our wedding this May. We wanted a luxury hotel without completely breaking our bank. I have to say our room was stunning. I had 8 bridesmaids and my mom/brother were getting ready with me the day of the wedding so we def. needed a spacious room. The bridal suite had 2 bathrooms, a large bedroom, 2 balcony, a living room and a kitchen area. We primarily got ready in the living room and kitchen area. It was beautiful. My husband I shared our wedding night there as well and the night after and it was so special to us. We have been going to the windrift for dinner, lunch, and drinks for many years and it was amazing to incorporate it into our big day. Thank you for making our wedding so special (:

Unreal Experience!

The Windrift was an incredible vendor to work with. Jeff and Ronda helped us every step of the way with planning our day and making it exactly what we envisioned. They were unbelievably flexible and accommodating. The day/night of our wedding, they moved the entire event along beautifully. I cannot thank The Windrift enough for their professionalism, warmth, and thoughtfulness. We feel like we are part of The Windrift family!

Best Beach Wedding Venue

Jeff and his team are incredible! If you are looking for a beach wedding this is the place. The ceremony and reception locations are breathtaking. The wedding and hotel team are great to work with. They are always available when you have a question and they make the planning process stress free. I could not have asked for a better experience with the Windrift!

Incredible Experience

My husband and I got married at the Windrift in November. Working with Jeff and Ronda was our biggest wedding gift. We only had a 4 month engagement, and they made it the easiest and calmest planning process. In the beginning of the planning process, Jeff was readily available to answer any and all questions via text or e-mail. He was very open and honest about what he thought would work best, and before officially booking he even called me to tell me that there was going to be some construction on the block. He really valued my opinion and was super honest and transparent, which was amazing. Likewise, Ronda was equally as helpful and honest. You can tell that she has done this many times, and she knows how to make the room flow best. She offered many suggestions that were extremely helpful and that I hadn't thought of. For example, I originally asked for navy tablecloths, but she mentioned that in pictures the tablecloths might blend in with the navy blue walls. (Something that would not even cross my mind!!)
Everything from the views, food, decorations, service, bartenders, was absolutely flawless. I cannot thank Ronda and Jeff enough for providing us with our dream, stress-free, wedding!!!!

Spectacular!

There are no words to explain how happy we were with everything from start to finish!!!! The Jeff & Ronda were so lovely to deal with, and made the whole planning experience anxiety free. From our first meeting until the last, both were there for any questions and help we may have needed!!
The venue and room setup were spectacular, food was delicious, and waitstaff and bartenders went above and beyond!!!
All of their efforts on our behalf were deeply appreciated, and could not have been more perfect!!!!

Spectacular Wedding Venue and Wonderful Staff!

My husband and I were married at the Windrift last month and we could not have asked for a better experience. After we got engaged we were on the hunt for a location that had everything we wanted; we knew for sure we didn’t want the typical ballroom venue, we wanted something more fun, unique, and “us,” where our guests could party and celebrate all night and not worry about a thing. Windrift hit all those points! From the moment we meet with Jeff and toured the venue we were in awe; we loved the idea of our ceremony on site and flowing right into our cocktail hour, the wine and cheese boards were something we’ve never seen done before, the 2nd floor reception area was so beautiful and the 2 big bars would be a crowd pleaser, and our guests would be able to stay on site & enjoy an after party downstairs! Jeff, Ronda, and Alexa were all wonderful to work with throughout our planning and the weekend of. We never felt slighted or that we weren’t a priority, they were always quick to respond to any of our questions and concerns all along the way. Our guests loved being able to stay at the hotel and continue to rave about all the delicious food and friendly staff. The entire weekend was a dream come true, everything came together perfectly and we have the amazing staff at Windrift to thank. We cannot wait to come back for many future visits and cannot recommend this venue enough!

Magical Rehearsal Dinner

We used the Windrift Hotel for our rehearsal dinner and also stayed in one of their larger suites for our wedding night. The event coordinator was incredibly responsive as we worked to plan our rehearsal dinner, and the staff at our dinner were very attentive. The food was delicious! The suite was also perfect both for the bride and bridesmaid to get ready the morning of and was also a relaxing evening after our perfect wedding day!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
