Stella Maris in Svendborg hosts meetings for up to 70 people in six rooms, dinners for up to 120 seated guests, and exclusive-use weddings for 40 to 86 guests. The hotel and restaurant is a villa on the edge of Svendborgsund at Kogtvedvænget 3, with 36 bedrooms. It suits management retreats, training days, private dinners and weddings that take over the whole house.
Seminars and company events
Meeting packages cover day meetings, course days and conference days. Six rooms are available. The largest is the Direktøren room in the Boligen part of the house: 92 square meters, 56 people in school layout or 70 theater style. Herskabsstuen, at 52 square meters, takes 36. Two further Boligen rooms of 29 and 32 square meters take 12 each. Havestuen seats 10 in 16 square meters, and the wine cellar, Vinkælderen, seats 10 in 52 square meters.
Wi-Fi, a projector, a flipchart and a whiteboard are included. The building is wheelchair accessible. Overnight stays can be added to any meeting, and the whole property can be reserved for one group, including a private dinner in the restaurant.
Weddings and receptions
Two wedding formats are published. The evening wedding starts with a welcome cocktail and canapés, followed by a four-course dinner with wine served throughout, an open bar with cocktails, draft beer, water and wine until 3:00 a.m., and a late-night snack. The full-day wedding adds a reception with canapés, sparkling wine, wedding cake, coffee and tea, then the same dinner and bar. Both formats rest on exclusive hire of the whole of Stella Maris for 40 to 86 guests. For a tailored quote, the reception handles requests by phone or email.
Rooms and capacities
Meeting capacities range from 10 to 70. The restaurant seats up to 120 guests across its rooms, and one combined room of 66 square meters seats 86. The wine cellar can be used for tastings and dinners.
Accommodation
The house has 36 bedrooms, including two suites. The site mentions breakfast with a view over the sound for overnight guests.
Catering
The kitchen draws on the Funen kitchen garden with French inspiration and follows the seasons. Fish comes from Svendborgsund, and lamb, pork and game from local farms. The hotel describes its meeting catering as tailored to the event rather than traditional conference food, using local and organic ingredients.
History and setting
Stella Maris describes itself as a villa at the water's edge where luxury feels homely, and its sustainability and history pages are listed on the site. It belongs to Odense Sport & Event, a group that also runs Odense Congress Center, Hotel Odeon and an event catering company. A jetty with 2 meters of water depth is part of the property.
Getting there
The address is Kogtvedvænget 3, 5700 Svendborg. The site does not give directions or public transport details, but offers 55 parking spaces and 4 electric vehicle charging stations.
